We purchased 'Pierre' back in 2014. After months of deliberation, searching and researching the internet on different makes and models of four wheel drives, we decided that a late model diesel prado would suit our needs and fall within our budgetary constraints.
At the time of purchase it was bog stock. I managed to swindle a hayman reece HD towbar through negotiations with the dealer as part of the purchase. It had 25000km on the clock, had never towed and the only modification was a Polaris GPS...we thought that we could live with that ;)
Since then a lot of time and money has gone into creating the perfect tow and recreational vehicle for our trip. Below is a list of mods that have been completed.

The day of purchase:
Just a little bit different, but this will suit our needs in the Australian outback!
