This/These cars were the most amazing little things that Toyota have ever produced. I've used mine from rally practice in the winter, to mud bogger in the summer, to going over 185km/h to heck and back.
Great in snow, dirt, mud, just watch out for her low ground clearance.
Easy on gas, ample power for a small old simple engine.
Plenty of cargo capacity.
It looks like all the repairs came from the way it was driven.
Although he may have spent money repairing it, he didn't spend much. Toyota parts are cheap and generally last forever. These are amazing cars, not well built, but truly amazing.
