Hi all,
Just picked up a Surf SSR V6 petrol. Pretty happy so far. A few things to work on (which I've posted in the workshop).
I drive a Saab 9000 Aero and a Volvo 850 and moderate over on Saabcentral.com, so Toyota's are a bit of a new thing to me. I have some mates in the local 4WD club and hope to get involved more with them. I hope I can be useful here and I'm sure people will help with questions as best they can. Will post some pics just as soon as I get the sign writing off and give it a clean up.
Cheers from New Zealand, Jason

Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Cheers for the warm welcome
Some pics as promised. Came up pretty nice after a bit of work. The interior is very tidy, no tears or breakage. New tires and the rims are like new. Registration and warrant good for many months.

It's a 5 seater. The back row (split in the middle) fold right down allowing for loads of gear. Got a bit dark for decent interior shots.
