  1. great truck, i had an early mk3 (1989 f reg) 2.4 diesel 4x4 2.4D is a fantastic engine genuine parts are dear, so dont go down that route! only thing that wound me up was the free-wheeling hubs, after driving landys, having to get out to get 4wd was inconvenient used to do a lot of motorway miles too-cambridge to guildford and back most weekendss, was comfy enough to sit at 80 although did then make fuel economy high teens! loved it, wouldnt hesitate to get another one sold it with over 160 000 miles no real cons of owning one, although, if i were to be looking at a hilux, id prob go for the mk4 to get front coil springs and turbo if you reguarly tow anything more than 3/4tonne think itd make a big difference
