I’ve driven Toyota for 30 years, I’m the proud owner of an invincible X identical to this one. There are no negative points in my book, and unlike this guy I know how to drive it, if you click the power mode, and sequentially change gear it does everything you could want and more. I’m tired of explaining the manual locking tailgate, it means that you can secure your valuables in the cab, but still have access to your kit and tools, that’s not a mistake it’s well thought out.

That argument doesn't really hold water though. It would be perfectly possible to have a central locking actuator in the tailgate and still be able to manually lock and unlock independently of the main cabin. It's clearly an issue for enough people if you have to continually explain it away in this manner. It would drive me mad enough to install a locking actuator myself.

I have a '63 Invincible that I've had for 8 years. Great, ultra dependable vehicle that dives and runs like a tractor. However, underneath has been a shocking battle against rust and rot for the past couple of years with cross members crumbling and requiring cutting out and new sections replaced. I live nowhere near the sea and it's not getting to hard a life on a ten acre small holding, so all I can assume is absolutely shocking corrosion protection and quality control out of the factory. For a £53k investment, I'd want a pretty solid explanation as to how the corrosion process has been radically improved over the past 11 years!

All diesels do their DPF regen on the move, every few hundred miles depending on the car. It’s only when they’re relentlessly mooched about town, never getting up to operating temperature at very low speeds when the DPF doesn’t have a chance to regen. That’s when you need to force a regen manually through diagnostic software. Usually the fault of the owner, not the car. If anyone is having to do manual regens, just get a petrol…

08:58 - I've not heard of a car which requires you to pull over, or visit a garage to regenerate the DPF. Every car I've come across with a DPF, will do a regeneration when required on the move. Providing the temperature of the DPF is in zone, and the average speed is above x amount. If you had to wait for a garage visit, you could theoretically be there every 4 thousand miles, or more without a regen. You could block a modern DPF in under four thousand miles, depending on the cars usage if it didn't regenerate.

The fuel economy is pretty remarkable as well for what they are. I reckon i service/work on at least 5/6 a week.

In its life other than servicing it needed a new clutch and two front CV joints….both of which were bust by me in extreme off road conditions. I now have a ‘22 Hilux and just returned from an extensive tour through Turkey, Georgia etc …..some very rough tracks and of 3 cars it was the only one that made it unscathed.

Can it run 4wd on tarmac though ? The vast majority of pick ups can only run 4wd on dirt / snow etc and would assume this would be a key feature. See Mitsubishi L200 / ranger raptor / amarok 😊

Never see the point of these unless really need 4x4. Get a Transit custom...far more practical, cheaper and with all the gizmos.

For Matt to look right in a pickup, he really needs a curled lip, a pompadour and a pack of Camel folded into his sleeve.

Was watching the video saw the prices seemed reasonable, went to check them in Portugal 204hp Invincible 2.8L Diesel is 68.690€. The conversion from 35415 pounds to euro is 45384€ send help.

Forgot to mention hilux antiperforation warranty is only 5 years and toyota will refuse to cover all the chassis that are rusting away .spending 5000k on chassis welding is so common in uk and ireland . Waxoiling helps but why will toyota not address this issue and treat them on production line .have personally seen 2012 up to 2016 rusted through.and spent 1000 on my own 2014 last year on disintegrate chassis brackets.buyers beware because a hilux that looks like new on outside can be horrendous underneath

It's strange because I don't like sky jacked 4X4's , but the rims and tires on this look a touch small. The one Toyota I have always loved was the Toyota FJ40 , considering they were made from 1960 - 1983 , they were completely indestructible ( Given salt levels of your country , lol ) and enough torque in low to climb a tree ( Yes , I'm being facetious, but you get the point ) A buddy of mine had one in Vancouver and we took it up to Whistler all the time , I was amazed at it...

I think the D'Max is a better choice or thats just my preference since they are both very similar.
