1990 Toyota 4Runner SR5 review from Australia and New Zealand
"A great buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front stub axle was dry, just needed greasing.
General comments?
This car took a while to get used to power wise after driving a 6 cylinder petrol. It goes OK now, but it really needs a turbo for overtaking etc.
It is a tough car and goes any where I want it to, I have fitted an overhead console for my 6 stacker and UHF. Its got a snorkel, bullbar and side steps.
