    We've taken a wrong turn
    That almost fits the bill but has electric windows (I’m trying to convince him that they won’t break and the engine has far more electronics in it, but he’s a bit set in his ways)

    I don’t think anyone wishes they still had an 85 Courier... 😉

    As long as he can put a key in the lock I think he’d be happy, just doesn’t like ‘blip blip’ things. A secondhand 4x4 version of the workmates with an extra cab seems to be a rare thing. He does have the money to buy a brand new one, so I may go ask Toyota if such a beast exists new then get the old fart to pony up a bit more but I suspect I’ll be on a hiding to nothing there. 😁

    His wish list is about the same as mine, though given the money and space required I would love a 110 with a 300 tdi. Fully reconditioned , and sound proofed , that would be enough for me. I don't use much of the electronic stuff in the new car .

    Why does his wish list make him any less worthy of my help just because he doesn’t want the same things?

    Yes, he’s a stubborn old bugger, but is a nice guy with a heart of gold, so happy to help out as I can. He doesn’t know how to use the internet or even have a computer hence why I’m assisting Need help with vehicle specNeed help with vehicle spec

    A little left field , I saw a Hiace van ( big bongo van ) with the hilux 4x4 running gear .
    it was an import from NZ .

    i want one .



    i have no other options , except a Triton , will be a basic shirt box , it will be fine if he likes simple , there will be no comforts or extras . It will have powered newfangled winda’s .
    i know , as I have one .
    Would find it difficult to reccomend to someone I care about ......
    An enemy - no probs !
