    Exactly Gav.
    One day a local car salesman who sold Daihatsu's was telling me how disappointed he was that they ceased production and what great vehicles they were. He made the comment that they averaged a warranty cost of $3.50 per vehicle, so if this is true, which I don't doubt, they certainly were built to a "standard"

    Cheers, Mick.

    Chassis busted? Might just be the photo angle but it looks bent behind the cab.

    Very common with twin cab utes where people put too much weight and extend the trays.

    It is interesting to note that the NSW registered MAN is a double cab where the First vehicle is only a single cab,a member of the "military jeep club"in Qld has one,was white (ex-UN) awesome is the only way to discribe it,very capable vehicle.

    cheers

    One and the same vehicle, Kev. It's just an odd shaped cab.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    I wonder if it’s part of the group that Nugget is traveling with.

    Look at the size of the 130's tray. Looks like it could have a heap of load as well as the length and height.

    Maybe the caption should read: 'Forgot to cut the handle off my toothbrush'.

    Simpson Recovery vehicle

    I agree with POD. The tray is sitting low at back, and at an odd angle. Is it a 300tdi with squarer side guard indicator?
