76 Series Toyota Wagon

Sorry Mal I can't help you with one to look at but then there's not that much new to look at anyway. The dash and seats are unchanged from the ute & the rear half of the car looks to be off a 70 series Prado last built in the early 90's. Packing space is 100mm narrower and 130mm shorter than the 80 series so not that big a car particually for a family. Leg room in the rear is less too and the seat really only comfortable for 2. (120 series Prado is far bigger all round)
Front suspension is similar to the ute but the rear leaves are shorter by around 80mm (from memory) & of course have a different track width than the front.
We were fortunate to have one locally to look at back in April when released but as you say are difficult to source now.
Other than the engine you may find it a little dissapointing but then it may suit your needs.
Cheers Craig..............

We have one Mal but sorry we are in QLD. I have had quite a few people look it over since we picked it up. We ordered ours At Easter and got it on the 1st October. Took it on a trip to Sydney and Canberra a week later. Towed our 21 ft Van like it wasn't there. I have to say we are stoked it drives great. Have since put an aftermarket sound system with amps and woofers in. Found the factory system just wasn't up to the job, the speakers were only plastic.

Workmate's are 70 series

There must be some one in NSW that has one, I am interested in looking at one too, none at the Dealers, 3 to 6 month wait.

Is there any one around Sydney that I can check out ? I will even bring the beer so we can have a chat

With a Prado on the market soon
