jbowman1993 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 I wanted to know what kind of vehicles people are riding around LOS in. If you have a picture, lets see it! Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terdsak_12 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 This is my current ride. Also got a Honda Jazz for the Missus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaiboxer Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 That's a nice ride terdsak! Plenty of room in it too. Somebody mentioned that the Fortuner is pretty thirsty but for a vehicle that size I'm not surprised. How many km/liter do you get? I think my old Toyota gets about 7km/lit and it only has a 2.0 in it! Must be that heavy, old chassis it has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaiboxer Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 I get an average of around 10KM/L, great cars, hard as nails.That's great mileage for a 3.2 liter; better than my gas guzzling 2 liter!! Many of the cheaper models on offer today are a bit too flimsy; they don't make chassis like they used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terdsak_12 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 3.0L turbo mate, the new Mitsu has the 3.2L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterfly Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 This is my current ride. Also got a Honda Jazz for the Missus. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 3.0 D4D right ? I like it. Still thinking about it but don't want to wait 3 months for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terdsak_12 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 I've flogged over a dozen Fortuners in the past few months, can get them in around 3 days depending on colour, blue takes a few days more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dan Sai Kid Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 (edited) This is my car, just after I got it. During the rainy season it got stuck in the mud so many times. Edited December 12, 2005 by Grant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monty Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 (edited) Get around in a 23 year old Volvo. A 2.3 injection engine(original), manages better then 8km/liter in a 2 ton chassis with city driving On big highway trips ith gets up to 10km/liter at a 120-130kph pace. If somebody decides to hit it with a Soluna or a City, they'll be mightily dissapointed with how little damage the volvo will have Pretty solid cars they built back then those Swedes Edited December 12, 2005 by monty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldenbead Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 No pic to post but I drive a Toyota Sportrider and I love it! I have four kids and we drive to and from school every day, 30 minutes minimum each day. It is big, high and handles well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilyushin Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 Drive mostly Toyota Altis 2005 with all the bells and whistles and have a cool ride Benz 380SE. No pictures though. Miss my SportRider and Tiger. Hope to get a new truck soon probably the Chevy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaiboxer Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Here is my ride: 1981 Toyota Carona Liftback. A true muscle car (not!). Hear the roar of the inline 4! They don't make 'em like they used to. The little 2 liter engine drinks as much or more gas than my Dodge Caravan that I had in the States and that thing had a 3.8 liter V-6 in it.

Meerkat Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 This is my current ride. Also got a Honda Jazz for the Missus. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ye gods - exactly the same combination for us too.

Should I expect anything less than 150k for a good condition one ? what did you spend another 40k for ? body or mechanical ? Does it have Air con ?

Thaiboxer Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 I've seen some of these old VW bugs around. They're nice little cars and from what I've heard they're pretty simple and easy to work on. The really old ones had flat dashboards. My brother's first car was a VW bug. Years ago, teens in the US used to soup them up and put huge tailpipes on them. Some can go pretty quick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
