Welcome aboard, Marlin! :thumbup: :thumbup:
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.

And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Thanks for the welcome. Just got the bakkie over 2 weeks now but will take some pics & post later. I have just sold my Isuzu - sorting out the paperwork - number retension/ cor . this is my first vehicle (Isuzu) that passed COR - first time without any faults(just one headlight was out of focus but the inspector adjusted it himself - great guy-didn't want me to come back for such a minor fault )-Not bad for a 2007 model.Sold it to a family member
