I rather like it, especially in double cab form, and at that price you can tailor it to your needs. I can imagine a few farmers would be interested in a 4WD base version when its out, if it were ever sold over here

For 10K + tax why wouldn't you buy one as a practical run about?
I agree it's ugly in it's basic form but modification seems to be planned in and the possibilities aren't so bad.
It's only profits that are driving the cost of £70k+ SUVs with more gimmicks than anyone needs.

The article says it's designed for the Thailand market and won't be sold in the States, or anywhere in the west, I expect. Darren

Well for someone who wants basic without things to go wrong, that looks like a good option. I am sure the price will rise for 4x4 but you will hopefully have good reliability. No doubt the price would also jump to comply with all our standards.

It does make you wonder how they can make it at that cost mind!

Crumbs I can still remember the awe and wonder when Max Headroom! appeared on our screens!

There probably won’t be the same response to the Toyota but I actually quite like it 👍
