2005 Toyota Hi-lux Vigo review from UK and Ireland
"Reliable and great to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I owned a 05 Hilux,. The jeep itself was very reliable and comfortable to drive. It was a good work horse.
The only problem I had with the Hilux is they don't handle very well in icy weather; mine skidded, the back end flew round, causing me to hit a ditch and flip over twice. The roof was caved in on the passenger side and all windows were smashed in, it is now written off. They should all be fitted with roll bars..
General comments?
Seats comfortable, great power,
