Lexus LF-LC – You Can Vote For It

May 10, 2012

I have to say, I had misgivings about the pincer-like grille when I first saw it. Two months on, though and I’d got over it. The stunning interior plus the rear wheelarch treatment that reminds me of an early Porsche 911 Turbo wheelarch makes me love it. And others seem to as well. The concept [...]

Bugger Me – Toyota HiLux is Australia’s Best Selling Car

Made famous by Top Gear and legendary by the exploits of Arctic Trucks in Iceland, I can think of several tales of my own, but that’s another story. So it’s great to hear that now this supplies are returning to normal after all [...]

GT86 – Let the Oscars commence

April 30, 2012

I’ve yet to drive the Toyota GT86, something that needs to be rectified very soon. But judging by the limited comments I’ve read online, it’s going to be a winner. I can recall way back in late 1984 when, as a young apprentice car salesman, I was let loose in one of the first of [...]

BTCC – Wrathall and That Wide Avensis

April 30, 2012

I’m not normally a fan of British Touring Car racing. Front wheel drive and 300 bhp can make the cars look tame on TV and while the racing is undoubtedly close, to me they look like a frustrating car to drive, with mostly more grip than power and a chassis setup that punishes a sideways [...]

Overdrive Racing Toyota HiLux Shakedown Video

April 17, 2012

Shakedown of The Toyota Overdrive Racing before the Sealine Cross Country Rally starts. Watch a short video and take a quick look how Nasser Al-Attiyah, Lucio Alvarez and Faisal Al-Attiyah in the Overdrive’s Toyota Hilux rushed through the off-piste of Qatar. Wish there was less music, there’s a nice sounding engine underneath there.

Toyota GT86 on track

April 10, 2012

We’ve been rather remiss here at Toyota Tuner last last few months. We’ve been reviewing the future plans we have for the website and other projects, which has meant that some important stuff has been neglected, including the launch of probably the most eagerly awaited Toyota since the original Mk1 MR2.
