I daily drive a 90 series Prado in outback Australia.

It has 300,000kms (whatever that is in miles) and yes, the seats are still like new. I also replaced the head unit (the tape deck and cd stacker didn't work unfortunately), but it hasn't needed a whole lot else. Clutch and alternator needed replacing, and the timing belt.

It's got some rattles my newer car doesn't, and it's not as good for overtaking (4 cylinder diesel vs the straight 6 barra in my Ford Falcon), but damn I love driving it.

The 90 series are still pretty common in Australia, and while I'd love to be able to afford a newer 4x4, I also really like the idea of keeping this and doing it up. One of my favourite things is it doesn't beep at me like new cars do!
