My 2002 Hilux and its first upgrades

Post by JaMMeX »

So, the bug has bitten, and the mods have started, as you prob read, i have been involed in building quick street cars, but now with a change in heart, i have decided to go the 4x4 route!

My first purchase was this Front Runner S2000 roof rack that I managed to Second Hand, im pretty excited now as I can fit an Awning for our camping trips!

Image

Next up was to find a decent awning, and reading the SA4x4 Mag I came across a TENTCO Awning, was on Special for R999.00 from tentco, but managed to find one alittle cheaper from http://www.fintastic.co.za, bud was really helpfull!

The awning is 3m x 2.7m and looks like this:

Image

More info on this link http://www.4x4community.co.za/forum/sho ... hp?t=23418

So, now to have it all fitted, still need to collect the roof rack, but soon my van will be pimped for camping!

Thoughts

more info to come with pics!

Sorry guys, I KNOW this doesn't apply to either of you (or you certainly would not drive Hilux's :mrgreen: ), but I thought it was kinda funny... :D:


BMW Driver

The other day I was cruising along as usual coming onto one of my motorways, which was very busy with inferior cars.

First off, I couldn’t believe that the volume of traffic DIDN’T slow down for me AT ALL as I came off the exit ramp! I had to squeeze into a barely big enough gap between two cars in order to get onto my motorway!

The driver of the car behind me did realize his mistake though and honked an apology to me with a long blast of his horn.

Unbelievably, I had to do the same again before I could get to the BMW lane.

Anyway, once I was in the BMW lane and posing along at 110 mph enjoying the adulation that the inferior car drivers were giving me, I noticed an inferior car ahead of me which was not only in the BMW lane of my motorway, but was driving at a ridiculous 70 mph!

Naturally, I got within a foot or so of his rear bumper and flashed my headlights to remind him he shouldn’t be in the BMW lane of my motorway and to get out of my way.

Of course, once he realized it was a BMW behind him, he did just that, but I could hardly believe it when he pulled straight back out behind me!

He also tried to keep up with me and when he realized I would out-run him, he put on some blue lights in his front grill and urged me to get onto the hard shoulder so that he could congratulate me on my excellent car.

Needless to say, I was eager to oblige and when we had stopped, the man gave me a piece of paper confirming what I already knew - that my car goes fast!

Apparently he wants everyone to know what a superior car I have, so I had to take my drivers license to a police station to be sent away to have some points put on! (They’re not free points either - they’re $20 each and I was only allowed 3.) But the man at the police station said that because I drive a BMW, it won’t be much longer before I earn the full 12 points, and then I won’t even NEED a driving license, so they will take it off me!

See, now THAT’S the sort of respect you get when you own and drive a BMW!

Ignore Eric he is just jealous since is platkar is a masipa benz - regte outoppie car

One day if I buy myself a platkar again it will definitely be a BMW again. after driving BMWs I can not see myself driving "inferior cars" again.

Damm I miss driving a beemer :cry: :cry: :cry: The thrill of speed, having the right to use the BMW lane, inferior cars admiring your ride, waving at you and flashing their lights as you fly past them..... man that was the life :twisted: :twisted:
