From: Steve Firth on 22 Jan 2010 14:42 Car reliability. Toyota, seem to be a relentless slide to the bottom of the head. The 2010 T�V test report (for 2009, obviously) has placed the Landcruiser Amazon at the botton of its 4x4 reliability list. And now Toyota is performing its second mass recall of vehicles (2.3 million!). Hmm wasn't someone with a loud antipodean view on cars busy slagging off "unreliable" Jaguars and Fords not long ago? Same person that rated Toyotas for wandering around the 'Strine bush? Here y'go Fraser, have a handkerchief. You can cry into it, blow your nose and then wipe the egg off your chin.

Maybe Toyotas only have problems in the German bush? -- Douglas
