That was pretty amazing.

Especially, putting it in the ocean.

Talking Hilux videos - annoying announcers but cool truck!

From another forum - sorry if it's a repost:

Best if you watch it in this order:

#1 - Hilux
#2 - Topgear's annoying announcers
#3 - Topgear's annoying announcer's AGAIN!

Sorry if the download is slow - but it is definitely worth it!

Thanks for posting that. Others have posted that recently but I wasn't able to open the media they had it in so that was the first time I've seen it. Awesome videos.

That was worth every bit of trouble I had watching that over dialup.

EDIT: Dialup link was no longer valid.

The result of the Hilux testing "Automotive Greatness" (vids)

After being washed out to sea, blown up, caught on fire, smashed, crashed the poor unbreakable Hilux was able to be fixed everytime with no spare parts and hand tools.
