Hey peeps...

I'm slowly coming to terms with thought that i may not ever see my beloved Hilux again.

Problem is, i have no idea what i would buy should the insurance company pay it out.



SO, If you had $40-$50k to buy a car, what would you get and why?

Second hand BMW135. You know why

Is it less than 2yrs old?...Should be new for old with the Insurance mob.
If you liked it so much surely you'd replace with another Lux

500 hp stroked ls1 vy ss. 25 k then you can spend the money you save on fuel. Call Chris

Patrol 4.2 turbo diesel. At least then you could go 4WDing.

His trouble is they dont make the TRD Supercharged Hilux anymore

What about another Hilux?

You want another ute.?
4wd wagon.?
Family car?
or mid life crisis car .?

Kia Sorrento

Buy 2 just in case

This isnt "what would you bu if you were me"...

I wanna know what you would buy for yourself, for that budget.

Only Firey and Blurr have answered the question properly...

Now I understand why he loved it so much.
Wouldn't mind a TRD front bumper for mine...They look heaps better than the standard
Hope they find it soon Dave..Hopefully the scumbags are in it when they do find it and get what they deserve.

A $1000 shitbox and fill the garage up with bikes..cause everyone knows genies aren't real

Great wall 4x4 ute


honestly, I was looking at start of year because of the bingle i was in with my falc, my next vehicle had to be able to go off road so a 4x4 with a transfer case, be able to tow a decent amount 1.8t or more, preferrably turbo diesel, because fuel prices were getting high. and have 4 doors was over a 2 door, but loved the practicality of a ute, so i was basically looking at ford ranger, navara, triton, grand vitara i know its not a ute but there nimble cheap to run and have no faults. if i want to go fast i have the bike so performance cars were out of the question, hope this helps dave. sit down think what YOU need from a vehicle and then look at what is availabe and what it will be used for.

good luck on the lux

Transit van FTW... so handy...

Fits 2 bikes and heaps of gear easily...5 seats too
