    James has a bit of fun at the expense of the Italians while admitting that this little car is actually, well, rather nice. So nice, in fact, that he went out and bought one.

The Unbreakable Hilux. We also own an unbreakable Hilux. We Bought the 2wd Hilux pick up in Jan 1994. 290k miles and 15years of hard work lugging electric motors around and the car still starts every time. It has its original engine and gearbox and only 3 clutches. It has not broken down once. Unfortunately we have decided to take advantage of the scrappage scheme and trade it in. What a car.
