Ever since I seen "Back to the Future II" when I was a kid, ive fancied something like this. On ebay - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Toyota-Hilux-...ryZ18290QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Would love one of those. Saw loads of twin cab trucks raised up on holiday in the States there, class looking.

ROFPMSL!!! Always a great way to start a thread

Some day Jennifer, some day................

Why does it have a VW badge tho at the front Odd odd person!!!!

 

[Gaz]

Very cool looking, I always lusted after that on in BTTF as well. Think the fantasy is probably better than reality so never intend to buy one !

VW built a few of these, they are called Taro's, exactly same as hilux, only downside is they mostly use VW petrol engines.

Note the truck like exhaust stacks up behind the cab.

the back to the future hilux is an eariler model than the one pictured, there very rare now, would love a lowrider one, but they rot like nothing normal!

 

[suckindiesel]

Lots of these in OZ. Nearly every old Hilux has some kind of lift!

Lowrider 4x4's really annoy me. Makes it totally useless as a 4x4, so your left with a slow, thirsty car. Defeats the point of a 4x4. Its like buying an M5 and putting a 318i engine in it!

 

[slinky2000]

looks cool alright

 

[Coog]

Talking of silly lowriders I spotted this a few days ago and got a few pics...

Interesting amount of cable under the bonnet feeding all kinds of subs, amps, TV's, LPG systems and Air ride suspension. She was a bit of a mess!!

Appologies for some pics being sideways... used the phone but you get the general idea lol

 

[Ricky352]

Low mileage on it too!

 

[SMB]

Brillaint looking... lol.. Fermanagh reg too.. lol..

I met a Hilux like that between Ballymoney and Ballymena on Sunday! Think it was red but it definately had big wheels and raised suspension! The reg was HILUX*...must have been H11 UX* or something like that!

 

[RMS_CLK]

It was white was it not??? I know it used to be about comber area. Has the big intake up the A-Pillar.

 

[marcusplowman]

Ammm yeah it might well have been white

it shouldnt anoy you, you cant make a 4x4 lowrider, you have to use a 2wd otherwise the front diff would need to be where the engine is.

Eh I don't think you can tell me what should and shouldn't annoy me, its a bit of personal taste thing.


Ok so yes it is more 2wd Utility vehicles and vans, still the same point. And people do do it to 4x4's.....Where theres a will, theres a way....

I HATE HUMMERS!!

Ten a penny in the states - everyone is driving them and they are horrible looking

 

[wingnut]

I was driving a LWB L200 a few weeks ago, some size of things. Always had a bit of a soft spot for that sort of thing.

 

[suckindiesel]

New Hummers are absolute scrap. The build quality is a joke; they're like life size toys.

I've just bought another 60 series Landcruiser - they are the daddy of big old 4x4's

 

[Lyons]

Lol, that Hummer looks ridiculous! Like Big Foot has just sat on it.
