I was reading somewhere that it went under an extensive overhaul?

I'm sure they wouldn't mind if it meant they got a new one. Last time I did a job with them. Penthouse of the Kings Hotel, they had a few problems with it and didn't like it too much.

Amazing what some paint does to a vehicle.

Is that why Perth's LRV has gone from a Landcruiser to a Mazda LP?

That truck looks really nice but it is a total piece of garbage- someone told me that the whole thing needs to be re-wired!

to emergency services personnel, it doesn't really matter what the vehicle looks like, but how it performs. Melville's landcruisers look great, clean, undamaged, low kms, but when they are towing a 2 tonne rescue trailer, they are gutless!!

we have towed our trailers up many hills.....specially down south. what we have found is that when you remove the dead weight (i.e. the trailer) the cruiser has awsum grunt, enough to bend the snatch point!!!
