aah. i used the "first click" approach on my wife's van but assume different pumps may click at different times depending on the speed of fuelling. Will try this next time. god i LOOOOOOOVE having no "fancy electronics". It's just an excuse for "fancy bills" from "fancy garages". had enough of...

hahaha, handy this thanks. Whats the brim the tank "method"? I assume you just mean filling to brim, not some trick to get more mpg?! :D

Sort of! Not paid or collected yet but will be doing deal in morning i think

I didn't want to start YET another tyre thread so thought I would tag on here.... I have Michelin Latitude Tour HP tyres on Amazon 100. when changing them, I am not sure whether to stick with them or go for ATs or something a bit more chunky. Do people rate the Michelin Latitudes for tarmac...

ha yeah makes sense too. lets go with that, :D

I do wonder if sometimes I go a bit too far. Found a car, spoken to dealership who did the servicing and they said it was all done properly (its toyota dealer) including injector seals done in 2002 at 19k miles. I then got V5 sent by the dealer selling the car, looked up address and found the...

That would make sense. Never heard it before so maybe it applies to all VXs

P.S. I am still waiting for some info from Trevor on his though, but I do need to move quickly either way

Ian thanks very much for this. I wouldn't have a clue where to start but my mechanic should have an idea, although I will guide him using info from here, thanks very much everyone. I am waiting for underneath photos on one I am very very interested in at the moment, superb price, MOT history...

Does anyone know the main pros and cons of VX versus GX? I am trying to convince myself about the cloth instead of the leather. Have to factor in the fact that VXs are more sought after so probably command a better price, not that I am planning to sell but have to factor that in. The leather is...

Corrrnwall, you?

holy 5hit i just saw the price of escape seat covers! http://www.equipt1.com/item/toyota-land-cruiser-100-series-vx-front-seat-covers-grey. Maybe if I was heading to the outback, but not for a few drives a week! Yes that GX does look darn good, the MOT history is bloody good as well. I do have...
