Faults:

Nothing thus far.

General Comments:

Magnificently built 4WD.

Super reliable.

Looks good.

Comfortable and a very long touring range with the 180 litre fuel capacity.

A heavy car, so it isn't very fuel efficient, particularly in the petrol version.

Drives like a 4WD. Not a car for the driving enthusiasts.

Faults:

-When the battery went flat, the stereo and electric windows locked themselves for security purposes. Was fixed over the phone simply.

General Comments:

A very nice 4WD. Our third Prado, and like the rest fairly problem free. Doesn't corner well, but cruises very nicely and bumps are hardly noticed. Pick up is... well... embarrassing. Not fast, especially for overtaking as it lacks power. However, on hills, or with big loads, the performance is hardly effected, and it takes a lot of hill and load to slow it down.

VX has nice array of features (ESP, 8 Airbags, Alarm, Cruise, 6CD, tinted windows, nice mags).

Not that efficient because of the older diesel, but for it's size and being diesel it doesn't cost too much to drive around.

Never gives problems.

General Comments:

Cannot beat a Toyota Prado. I have owned a Mitsubishi Pajero, Suzuki Vitara, earlier model Prado (2000), Toyota Hilux sr5 4x4, but hands down the new shape Prado has got it all. Comfort, handles well, power, great 4wd, OK on fuel, but when you are paying so much for fuel these days, all cars seem a little expensive.

I find Toyota just build them to last. They are finsihed off nice. Our car has 78000km and still no rattles and squeaks.

Love it...
