Toyota’s Kluger ticks almost all the boxes for a family AWD SUV. It’s almost as if they were reading the minds of buyers over the years. The Grande is the top of the range.
The style of the Kluger is spot on for the market. It blends into the background, does nothing notable yet somehow seems evoke a comfortable feeling. The Kluger has roof rails, roofline spoiler, halogen headlights, colour coded bumpers and 19 inch alloys with 245/55 R19 103S tyres.
What impresses most about the Kluger Grande is the feeling of space inside. You literally have to get out and check that it is a mid size SUV. The designers have dome an amazing job of extracting every available mm of space internally.
Rob Fraser – General dogsbody & Director
Rob is the founder of the business. He constantly mutters something about way too many red wines one evening being to blame.
Often known for taking the 4WD in the driveway over the sports car, he has travelled pretty much everywhere in Australia and when he is bored goes for a drive.
He first learned to drive on the farm in a left hand drive WW11 Jeep when he was 11, and was hooked on 4WDriving way back then. In addition to 4WD he is an avid motoring enthusiast and has maintained a strong interest in the industry ever since his teens. He has owned way too many cars in his time as well.
Having previously lived at the top of corporate life he retired in 2000 and hasn’t put a suit and tie on since. Cars are his passion so why not have a business doing what you love he figures.
He has towed either a caravan or camper trailer to most parts of Australia, has run guided tours for camper trailers’ and instructed drivers in off road towing.
The LandCruiser 200 series 2015 upgrade still is the yardstick by which all other large off road 4WD’s are measured. There isn’t any need to talk about the LandCruiser’s off road ability or towing ability. Both are excellent. Having driven the GXL I am looking forward to the Sahara and actually considering buying one again. [Read More]
