Not so sure that I like ..... looks a bit like a glorified beach-buggy. :think:
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

A 4x4 is merely a machine that enables you to get stuck further away from civilization.

Went round Kilarney in a X-Bow, WOW!, no words to describe it, you pass Ferraris and Porsches on the outside.

Ultra Cool! :thumbup:

3 problems with those units ....
• You can't use the speed and handling that they're capable of unless you're on a track,
• The nose and underbelly get stuffed up on all the damn speed bumps (and what about pot-holes!),
• I can't afford either! :cry:
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
