Recently restored an AU2 XR8.

Looking at buying another project at the end of the year thinking either a JZX100 Toyota chaser or an Evo 8/9.

I have 7 in my garage happily with no rust and a 1980 build. The car in the clip below is a Mirage, which was a limited run by Mazda of 25 cars each with the body kit developed by Penfold's Mazda in Melbourne. Penfold's also converted one car to a Targa Top, which I would like to get my hands on. The 25 cars were stripped of air conditioning, radios etc and I understood from a mechanic at Reliance Rotary (Fyshwick. ACT) that none survived as they were converted for racing. Reliance and most prominently John Waterhouse has a long history of rallying 7s and of. course rotary repair. Love the sound of the bridgeport and the big Weber.

Value for money beats paying $80+K for a Toyota.
The Isuzu D-Max motor is the best small diesel around, that’s why Holden called theirs a (Duranax) to try and fool people that it was a D-Max.
Isuzu drivetrain has been proven to be one of the best over years, and it has the same 6 speed auto as the Toyota.
It doesn’t have the high end luxury appointments that some of the other SUV’s have.
The only thing that we can really fault with it is the low end diesel “rattle” and there are no headphone jacks in the DVD player. Which we have never used.

Thanks mate. I was looking to replace my Hilux SR5 and in the end the mercedes actually ended up cheaper and there is no comparison between the two of them.

Haven't seen too many of the Merc utes on the road, you should stand out from the crowd. New Mazda BT50 ute looks to be taking things up market too.

Nice Ute
Was thinking of trading my 2016 Nissan STX in for a new Hilux or Mercedes but decided to wait till the end of next financial year
Will keep my Colorado
Are you going to make a few changes or keep it as is
Eg: Bull bar, Led or spotties lift the suspension, 4wd tyres

Turned out I HAD to upgrade my Hilux SR5 before 30/6 due to nice tax problems. My intention was to get a new Hilux but because Toyota have a new model coming out I couldnt get one in time and to be honest, I didnt like the current Hilux as much as my current one (2014). Out of interest I thought I'd have a look at the Merc. Turns out Mercedes have stopped making the ute (which *might* screw me on resale, not sure) which mean that availability is also an issue, but their prices are fantastic. Turned out that the demonstrator I took for a blat was EXACTLY the colour I wanted (metallic blue, same as the photo) and was drop dead gorgeous. I bought the demonstrator.

The demonstrator I bought was $5K more expensive than the base model Hilux SR5 but the car I got has EVERY option other than sports bar and hard cover. It is the "Power" level which is the top level, with "style" upgrade (full leather interior etc), "winter" upgrade (heated seats, mirrors), "plus" upgrade (side steps and some other stuff I dont know), funky wheels and wheel flares (see pic), ute liner. Plus the ridiculous inclusions that come with the power level (360degree camera, autonomous emergency braking, lane leaving waring, plus plus plus)

I havent so far got the sports bar or hard cover, but probably will in the near future. Im still getting over the shock of buying a mercedes ute.

Keep an eye out for the new Mazda BT50 or Isuzu D-Max, both have a lot of added tech and safety.

Correct, just has a nicer interior and perhaps a slightly different suspension tune. Good engine to tune though, it's very de-stressed and responds well to tuning.
