Malta 2012 Defender 90 Puma 2.2 CSW Santorini Black
Late 80s Toyota chassis
Just in case anyone wondered how an late 80s Toyota Hilux chassis would look like after almost 35 years of service. Being a Landrover owner, which chassis seem to start rusting from the factory, I was impressed. Impressed also by how much wall thickness there is, as I read somewhere that the Defender chassis is 2mm so that it can be pressed into a C shape. Bulls#!t. And having the internal spot welded angles as a nice breading ground of rust.
