Need to have owned it for 6 months for them to inspect it.

Once you've had it that long, if the recall is still running they will inspect and deem either it needs rubbing back and wax oiled or full replacement if its bad enough, then you wait for a date.

The full replacement will take months in the shop, they offer a truck "like for like" as a replacement but not a chip box just lockable canopy, tow bar and number of seats are relevant from what I've been told.

The respray is meant to take them a week, I've been told i'll be getting a replacement car not a truck for that week.

From what a chap with a box told me, they've said they'll do them if the box is "properly" done by a "arb tipper" fabricator with all the boxes ticked.

Cheers mate, that backs up what Toyota told me today! Apparently I will have to remove the tipper if they do deem the chassis worth replacing, but for the value of a new chassis for free I’m ok with that. 
 

Tools down and everything cleaned, time to enjoy some of the British bests above…….merry crimbo all!🙌
