1989 Toyota 4Runner KZN61 review from Australia and New Zealand
"Buy Toyota"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Minor electrical stuff; mostly due to deep water (1 - 1.5 metre) fording.
Seats wore out.
General comments?
Totally indestructible. The door seals still seal and nothing rattles despite probably 800000 ks of hard river off roading. It has carried 1000s of pigs, deer etc, and never complained.
Goes wherever I want it to. Tows whatever is hooked on. Top family recreational vehicle.
