Dano: SUV framework with a plug-in front axle, dependent spring suspension and a body of simple chopped forms. It is required to determine: when this car is released. Well, you will say, again, the Lord journalists are somehow all-wheel drive rippled. And go wrong! We are talking about the car, still standing in the manufacturing program of Toyota. True, this SUV was constructed indeed in the mid-80s of the last century.

Let's talk about spring SUVs of the Toyota 70th series. Wait, you will say, because the "semesey" spring suspension! Is that some old versions? Not at all, it's about quite modern cars. As modern, again, the reader is surprised again, because the production of Toyota J7 is stopped in 1997, when the 90th series came to shift, known from us as Land Cruiser Prado? No, it seems that without a bottle of warm sake here, do not figure it out ... But before you rush to disperse the genealogy of Japanese "cruisers", it is worth remembering what the model Toyota is designated Land Cruiser.. Each has a factory index consisting of two or three letters, numbers and possible alphabetic additions. The first (one or two) letters mean the brand installed on the engine of the engine. "J" is the legacy of the very first model of the company's SUV, uncomplicated Toyota Jeep called. And then the numbers go, the first of which means the series, and the second - the length of the base or the specific modification.

WAR...
Tactical Car of the Venezuela Army based on picap Toyota. HZJ78. Armament - two machine guns.
This LRPV Al-Thalab of the Kaddb Jordanian company is going on the basis of all the same HZJ78.
Pickups of the 70th series served Swedish peacekeeping contingent in Bosnia.
The strength of the Toyota Hzj74 chassis allows you to safely equip the car by a custom typper gun.
Such arms turns a peaceful SUV in a formidable anti-tank agent.

The history of the 70th series began in November 1984, when the Toyota leadership decided to finally replace the 40th series for something more modern and comfortable. No sooner said than done! And a whole family of cars with three versions of the wheelbase (2300, 2600 and 2930 mm) and several types of body types appeared, and if short-passage and mid-size models continued to continue the corresponding models of the 40th series models, then the length of the predecessor is no longer It was. The fact is that the last five-door "forties" with a long base were released back in 1967, after which the 50th, and then the 60th series, were replaced in the production program.

From precursor machines new Series Toyota 9.5 "HEAVY-DUTY, dependent suspension On semi-elliptic springs, a transmission of type Part-time with a plug-in front axle and two engines - a diesel "four" 3B and gasoline "six" 1fz-f. Another engine, diesel "six" 2N, the Japanese constructors borrowed from the Bestseller of the American market, the Land Cruiser of the 60th series. These motors were installed on long-base HJ75. Why did the company need another long tip, and even with the same motor? In my opinion, the fact is that the same line of evolution, which was represented by the Sixties, was clearly led towards improving the comfort, and the company's management did not want to spoil the image of the machine with the creation of utilitarian versions. But make such a car from the heir to the unpretentious 40th series - the very time. Especially since the Toyota 9.5 Bridges 9.5 ", and atmospheric diesel engines 3B and 2N, and the H55F gearbox should not be better suitable for utilitarian SUV.

And it was still time to remember that in 1982 they began a victorious procession on the roads of the world "Wild Cat" - Mitsubishi Pajero, which to the world a new appearance of the Japanese SUV, in comfort and behavior on the road practically not inferior to passenger sedans. It was a challenge to which he should answer. Toyota designers made it in a very original style. They put on the "seventyat" lighter bridges Toyota 8 "on spring-lever suspension, equipped with 2L-T engines (they are easier, but are able to develop sufficient power due to turbocharging) working in a pair with mechanical gearbox R150F and R151F (as an option - and "automatic"), and a slightly "combed" the front of the car (in particular, they changed the shape of the hood, wings and lighting). The result was a "cying" SUV, on the ride comfort, quite capable of competing with the brainchild of MMS. This was born another branch of the evolution of medium-sized Land Cruiser, which was named Toyota LJ71-G Prado. But we will talk about this branch in detail some other time, since it's time for us to return to the "heavy" machines of the J7 series.

Land Cruiser J7 began the development of our planet without noise, pumps and spectacular advertising campaigns. And since the machines initially were attached to the features of adventures, the main places of their habitat were not the autobares of european europs and American highways (in the USA cars of this series were never supplied), and African savannahs, Australian Bush, Middle East Desert and Jungle South -Wast Asia. Unpretentious "working horses" with excellent cross-country permanent geologists and merchants of national parks, farmers and communications, organizers of the Jeep safaris and employees of international organizations. True, at the same time, they were loved by insurgents and terrorists of all stripes ... Mounted in the body of a truck a machine gun of a caliber of 12.7 mm, a custom-effective tool or light mortar easily turned a commercial car into a mobile firepoint, irreplaceable in urban battles. However, the military use of the SUV was not limited to using it as a carrier of weapons. For example, in the stories of our special forces who fought in Afghanistan, then there are mention of the caravans of "Simurgs", the secret paths of the weapons of the "spirits" of Pakistan. So, these most mysterious "Simurgi" is nothing more than Toyota BJ75 trucks. Personnel military also did not bypass "seventies" with their attention. And although the Land Cruiser of this series was originally developed as a civil engine, reliability, unpretentiousness and excellent passability of these cars served as a sufficient basis for the color of their angular body into the Army Olive Drab. Even today, the HZJ75 auxiliary machines serve in the army of many countries, on all continents (Venezuela even ordered a tactical carrier car carrier on their base).

The turn of the last decade of the twentieth century "Semesey" noted, trying on the new gamut of the engines. Diesel engines 3V and 2N gave way to five-cylinder 1pz and six-cylinder 1Hz. These were absolutely new motors with a single-lunld and belt drive mechanism of the timing. Actually, 1pz was 1Hz with one "sliced" cylinder. In the family of long tolls, replenishment had happened: buyers were offered five-door J77 with a wheel base of 2730 mm. In 1999, the 70th series has undergone last restyling. Machines not only received a more modern decoration of the radiator lattice, but also borrowed from the 80th series the H151F gearbox. In addition, versions of HZF78 and HZJ79 appeared, equipped with 1HD-FTE turbo diesel engines with electronically controlled fuel injection, as well as FZJ78 and FZJ79, received a 24-valve six-cylinder 1FZ-FE with a capacity of 215 hp. In this form, the "Heavy Division of the 70th Series" and met the twenty-first century.

... AND PEACE
Almost everywhere, where tourists are carried by exotic places, you can find Toyota J7.
On the elongated chassis of "heavy seventies" build special machines for African safaris.
J7 actively work as part of UN peacekeeping missions. For example, in Sarajevo.
In Australia HZJ78 - a favorite car for rest. But they also enjoy doctors and police.
Journalists working in Asia and Africa highly appreciate the reliability of Toyota Hzj78.
All heavy Land Cruiser J7 was originally conceived and built as professional SUVs. From here and constructive features, and almost complete absence vulnerable seats. By the way, that is why these cars have truly inexhaustible potential for off-road tuning. And yet some "sins" are found for "seventies", and those who are going to build military or expedition machines on their base should remember them. Especially if we are talking about the elderly car ... Many machines of the 70th series were equipped with the couplings of the free movement of the front wheels with an electric drive. Like it, it's not too reliable knot. Sometimes to bring the node to a sense, it is enough to consider the lubricant from the brushes on them, but sometimes you have to change the drive motor. In general, if you seriously think about the conquest of off-road, then it is better to immediately replace this electrical misunderstanding on the usual mechanical clutches of AISIN, although this requires additional studs and special spacers.

All heavy machines of the 70th series are installed bridges of type 9.5 "Heavy-Duty. Most often they have major pairs with a gear ratio of 4.11. Often there are machines with forced blocking or rear, or both interc differentials. Managing all locks electric. In addition, bridges are unloaded and semi-disconnected type. You can seek them as follows: if, removing the decorative cap, you saw six bolts heads, then this bridge of the unloaded type, if you can see the semi-axle itself, it means that you are semi-disconnected option. The unloaded bridges are considered more preferable during long-term off-road work, but their maintenance requires more attention and money, since two hubs are added, in which once in 20 thousand you need to change the lubricant. Also, every 120-150 thousand, it is necessary to carry out the invasion of the front axle, with the replacement of bronze bushings, support bearings, checking the shrurs and drive flanges. From the point of view of the consumer, wear of the front axle parts is felt by shocking when switching from the front reverse (with a complete drive connected). On the pit, the end of the front bridge can be checked like this: take the front gear shank and turn. If the angle of rotation is 90 ° and more, it means that it is time ... prepare money. And money, you must notice, considerable. After all, as a rule, not only bronze bushings and support bearings are subject to replacement, but also shoes, drive shafts and glands. Chanins can also be checked by turning the wheels to the limit. If clocks are heard when touching the click, then it's time for changing shoes. A specific time of the onset of the need for such a repair depends on the vehicle operating mode, but, as a rule, we are talking about a run of 120-150 thousand. In any case, the front axle is the only patient Land Cruiser J7. If the fist is visible a mixture of consistent and liquid lubricant, it means that the bridge requires urgent opening and inspection. No less disturbing symptom are rusty balls of swivel fists.

The brakes "Semesey" are very reliable. Front brakes disc, but the rear can be both disk and drum. As a rule, drum brakes were raised on the bridges of the semi-duty type, and the discs on the unloaded. There is a certain problem with self-approval mechanism of drum brakes, which zakise, if you do not use the parking brake. The cables themselves, due to the structural features, practically do not waste.

But once again I want to repeat: all these reasoning and cautions can come in handy only if the fate brought you up with a car released ten or more years ago. But in that very charm of "heavy seventies", that you have a chance to engage in the construction of an off-road monster on the basis of a new or almost new car. However, for many applications, for example, on the role of an expeditionary car, HZJ75 or 78 are visible almost primarily.

In the latter, we had the opportunity to make sure that three representatives of the 70th series got into our hands: FZJ75 truck and two three-door wagons (long-base Hzj75 and short HzJ74). All cars are enough "fresh", younger than ten years. We ride them and ride - in the city, the track and the broken cafe. "Semesey" left the most favorable impressions. Judge for yourself: the salon from the series "Simply, but with taste." Ergonomics are close to ideal - the most comfortable seats in which they are not tired even after a whole day behind the wheel. Perhaps, only a truck received certain complaints for an insufficient range of longitudinal adjustment of the driver's seat. But otherwise everything is very good. Of course, the angular shapes of the front panel of the instruments may seem old-fashioned, but at the same time it is very functional, and the instrument readings do not overlap. I liked the excellent review, including lateral mirrors.

The behavior of the car on the asphalt can be estimated at the firm "four with a plus". Yes, on the irregularities slightly shakes, but the car clearly holds the trajectory and does not require infringement. The strongest, naturally, was shaking a truck, although his owner had already weakened the springs by drowing several sheets from them. By the way, about gas tanks. Their location in all three cars turned out to be different. On the HZJ74, it is in the backset, on the long-base HZJ75 - in the database, and a truck with a fairly voracious gasoline 1FZ-F received already two "fuel-eyed" (and in the base, and in the rear breath). On this, the technical differences between the machines are practically ends.

On the off-road "seventies" feel very confident. Press the button on the front panel - the front axle is connected, and the reduced gear is turned on by the lever of the dispensing box. Most I liked the behavior of diesel cars. 1Hz traction is really diesel - and even in a slide can be moved almost on idling. As for volume luggage compartment: J74 is sufficient, and J75 is just a huge. The freight version was not very primarily suitable for long-range routes, but the body can be replaced with Kung.

With "seventies" one trouble - "Fresh" cars of this series are very expensive. For example, in Australia new Land Cruiser Hzj78 cost from 37 to 46.5 thousand dollars. However, non-silence not only "fresh" cars. For example, for cars released in 1989-1990, they ask for about 10 thousand US dollars. Impressive and a list of original accessories, among which there are filament bumpers with winches, and powerful straight protection, and additional lighting devices, and trunk. By the way, a considerable part of the car had a winch (electrical or mechanical) in the factory configuration. If there is still no mechanical winch on the machine to you, and you are a fan of such a traction device, you should not be upset. You can easily equip the car yourself. The main thing is to make sure that there is a space for a power outlet mechanism.

As for prices in Russia, the established market for these cars simply does not exist. They fall to us different, sometimes very exotic ways. Some number of right-hand drives comes from Japan, another source is the Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia. Sometimes on European markets of used cars "throw out" machines that have spent their in international organizations - UN, WHO, UNESCO. In general, if somehow it happens to become the owner Toyota Land. Cruiser Hzj7x, you can assume that you are lucky. In any case, I personally would perceive it in this way.

Rear springs were very tough.
Andrei Tarasenko, Pickup Owner Toyota FZJ75

This car was produced in 1996, I ordered his firm for work on pipelines, and it was kung with severe diagnostic equipment. The cars were enrolled in Russia, but they did not go to the matter and in five years were sold out. I purchased such a truck to carry the quad bike. It turned out that the springs are very tough, because Kung was heavy. It was necessary to remove one leaf from the front springs and four. And still, I try to ride with a full rear tank so that more weight accounted for the rear axis. I was not used to paying great attention to fuel consumption, but according to my estimates, the engine consumes about 20 liters per 100 km. Two tanks I had 820 km. By comfort - some say that everything is convenient for them, but I still wanted to push the seat back, and nowhere. Well, of course, after Suburban, the car seems harsh.


In the engine did not climb never.
Maxim Ivanov, Wagon owner Toyota Hzj75

When the "master rally" disbanded, a whole fleet of such cars went on sale. The car had a "non-share" view - the cabin was not, but there was a safety frame and a tank in the cabin. For the year we brought the car in order, the salon was mounted, put the second row of seats from Renault Espase. I leave with the Team "Georid" to competitions as an easy technique. As for the breakdown, we had problems with the conversion of the onboard network from 24 V to 12 V, and two springs broke after a terrible horse racing in Astrakhan steppes. At the very beginning I had to change the crossings on the back Cardan. Yes, the front brake discs had to change. It cost 110 dollars per pair. The steering damper and shock absorbers were originally "killed", they also had to change. In the engine did not climb never.

Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 70 Owners Reviews

Toyota Land. Cruiser Prado. 70, 1990

Actually, Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 70-Series I consider the standard of a jeep. The 70 series nomenclature can give all the ways to ride on the roads and outside of roads, and taking into account the majority of the addies of the "jeeppers". As for LJ71, he was preferable for me, since the short base allows you to unfold in the overwhelming majority situations. It is lightweight, which allows not sinking where large colleagues are immediately mired. Despite the fact that the car went to the "stock", it was clear that one of her past owners was a fan to ride a hunt and fishing, but carefully watched her and inserted money into it on time. As a result, I got enough a lively copy, surprisingly even experienced professionals who, being driving, suspected replacement of DVS on KZ. Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 70 traveled quite cheerfully. There were no cases that I miss the power, where I would not go (dirt, forest, passes, track, mountains). Long-term riding on the highway with passes and Ugabami does not cause any complaints. The machine rises even with full loading. I plan to dig up in the future by car outside the area, and shake along the picturesque places of Primorye. In conclusion, I want to say that I was convinced that Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 70 is the light vector version of the "cubes", it is really unique cars that will be demanded for a long time. Currently, the 70th series has survived restyling, and continues to be issued because it is in constant demand.

Dignity : Reliability. Endurance. Patency.

disadvantages : Perhaps age.

Dmitry, Novosibirsk


Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 70, 1991

In Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 70 fell in love immediately, struck the state of the 16 year old car. Everything was shining, under the hood was purity. The next day I became the owner of this car. Joy was not the end. Separately you can highlight the automatic box. There are no prices for such a box, there is a sapness of the car, it pulls perfectly, but you will not think about anything in the city. Very convenient automatic towing car. Yes, and on the patency exceeded all the expectations. I had to climb where the UAZ did not even dream. Also pleased the inclusion of the full drive with the buttons on the instrument panel. You do not have to get out and include "hubs" as on Uaz. At first, standing still, you turn on the front axle gearbox button, and you can go as soon as the front axle is required only to click on the 4WD button and everything is done. For a farewell you will not come up with. The only thing that can become a minus at Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 70 is a hard suspension, but you quickly get used to it. This is just the front axle gives such a result. On the highway, the car goes excellently like the king of the desert. A big front hood attaches confidence in motion. It is convenient to maneuver in the parking lots, the dimensions are well felt. It is necessary to be just cautiously passing back, the car can not be noticed, due to the highly raised rear windows. Salon immediately fascinates with its convenience, especially driving seatin which there is both adjustable side support and adjusting the lumbar department. Under the front seats are shock absorbers, which allow you to compensate for the stiffness of the suspension. Backseat Separate 50:50, allows you to transport a long cargo, and the rear passenger remains. Transported wooden lining, 2.55 meters long, 60 m2 entered and the place remains. In general, to describe all the sensations that you get when driving on this machine is not possible. It is really a "tank", which is impossible to "kill."

Dignity : Durable construction. Reliability. Unpretentious. Patency.

disadvantages : age. Hard suspension.

It so happened that in the "off-road" rating of the preferences of Russians Japanese models - out of competition. What is there Moscow or the Far East - all Siberia and even the Polarier go on their machines. And the absolute leaders in Russia - Toyota Land Cruiser and its Double Lexus LX470. Recently, the replenishment approached them ...

Last fall on the Motor Show in Paris held a new debut generation Land. Cruiser Prado, the younger brother "weaving", previously known as a model 90. And recently, its official sales began in Russia. (The previous generation of the car was produced for almost seven years. This is a short time - in an off-road segment age in width, and the change of generations is much less common than in the rest.) The external proportions of Prado are preserved, even the outlines of the windows are the same. But all outdoor panels are new, more plastic. The dimensions of the car increased. Due to the major, capable optics in the style of Avensis and Corolla, the car fits well into modern the lineup Toyota. Nothing amazing - European Design Bureau ED2 worked on her appearance, which created Avensis.

Prado remained a real SUV - frame structural construction, continuous rear axle, Full "Distribution" and a bunch of locks. New engine - 4-liter V-shaped gear with a power of 250 hp (More than the 4.7 liter eight-cylinder motor "HEMAL"). Such on Prado has not yet set.

It is called a "small cruel" ("weaving" half the meter is longer and 10 centimeters above). But this "small" accommodates three rows of seats and eight (!) seating - In the third, folding row there are three seat belts, and there really can be located three.

The interior is absolutely new - stylish, modern and "in the passenger" comfortable. The quality of materials and fitting panels - at the level of LEXUS models. Wooden and aluminum inserts, perforated leather, Optitron instrument panel ...

The center of attention is like a swollen "Hood" Cobra Central Console, on which "Music" is located (for Europe instead of the "big" stereo system Install the monitor navigation systemwhich also "shows" DVD) and climatic installation With separate control. The latter has a Dual blocking button, which equalizes climate passenger and driver installations. Air flows are distributed in Toyotovsky, one button.

At the top of the console, the visor is located a multifunctional color display. on-board computerwhich shows the testimony of the compass, the benomer and the altimeter. And also chronological data (fuel consumption, etc.) for the last hundred kilometers - in the form of graphs. Not too necessary thing, but spectacular.

The seats are completely "electric", the steering wheel is adjustable in the corner and in depth (for some reason two separate levers). It settled quickly, everything is comfortable and at hand. The handbrake on the tunnel, there are two transmission control lever.

Rear, in the second row, the place is plenty, the angle of inclination of the seat backs can be changed. For passengers in the central console there is its own ventilation control unit. Access to the third row - through a folded half of the second. There are three places, and the head restraints are two. By the way, the visibility back through the mirror, despite the three-rowness of the salon, exemplary - often in such machines you see only the forest of head restraints.

The equipment for Russia provides only one, but the richest and expensive, no options. And this applies not only to the interior. In addition to the 4-liter "six" mentioned, Prado has a four-step "machine", a mechanical two-stage chain dispensing box, inter-axis differential Torsen with forced blocking and distribution of torque over the axes in the 40/60 ratio.

A whole arsenal of electronics was attached to the help of mechanics. Anti-pass system (A-trac), system currency stability (VSC), Lifting Assistance Systems (Hill-Start Assist Control) and Descent (DowNhill Assist Control), Rear air suspension (TEMS). By itself - ABS with the system emergency braking BRAKE ASSIST. It seems to have forgotten anything ...

250 forces are enough for two with a small ton weight of the machine. Overclocking smooth and energetic. A gently working "automatic", excellent soundproofing and "all-consuming" suspension reveal the declared 9.5 seconds to hundreds. But this is quite nice for an SUV, close classmates lagging behind for 2-3 seconds.

Smoothness stunning. You are not going to Prado, but we float. To the body does not reach anything - neither tram railsnor hatch. Nothing. Business class is easy! The main thing is not to accelerate when there are huge unsappressible masses, transmitting unpleasant vibrations on the body, and the Prado wave is noticeably swinging.

The beauty of PRADO pneumatic suspension is not only in automatic control road clearance (within 30 mm), but also in the adjustment of its rigidity. There are four modes: Comfort, Sport and two intermediate. On the roven road The difference between the extreme - Comfort and Sport is practically no feeling: the car goes softly, does not swing, rolls in the turns are small. (Intermediate modes, apparently, generally the wings of the selected.) But on the settlement, the differences are feeling better. IN comfortable mode Natural rolls and the routine of the body appear, but there is no complaints about the manageability, everything is safe and understandable. It is possible once again Make sure the fairness of the saying "more speed is less than the holes": as it is overclocked, the vertical sorting of the body is reduced.

IN sports mode And the routine, and the rolls are not so noticeable as in comfortable, but the bodies begin to "get" small irregularities. It not only increases the stiffness of the suspension, but the steering wheel becomes sharper, and the reactions are clearer and fast. In any case, an unconnected electronics remains alert, besieging and the car itself, and the driver - the more aggressive his behavior, the earlier it comes into effect and the longer it works more.

The combination of highway rubber and risky clay under it does not make a less complete feeling of confidence driving. At all in deep dirt, we didn't drive Prado - his predecessor is well known for its outstanding off-road abilities, and the new model has the suspension more. In any case, on loose virulent and deep rips, the car is playing. And if you also block the differential and turn on the reduced range of gear ...

Now as for the "electronics". Perhaps the orthodox "jeipers" she is not on the floor, but we liked her work. Especially the A-TRAC system imitating the interstole blocking - acts immaculately, only the brakes are having fun. A very funny thing is a DAC that helps on the descents. It works when driving and forth, and back, and even on "neutral", the main thing - the brake pedal is not touching ....

Yes, another genus of real SUVs is not eradicated. They only become more comfortable and stylish. On such and people seem not ashamed, and the dirt will not disappear. But four-wheel drive, as it should be, in price - for Land Cruiser Prado is asked for almost $ 55,000.

It so happened that in the "off-road" rating of the preferences of Russians Japanese models - out of competition. What is there Moscow or the Far East - all Siberia and even the Polarier go on their machines. And the absolute leaders in Russia - Toyota Land Cruiser and its Double Lexus LX470. Recently, the replenishment approached them ...

Last fall on the Motor Show in Paris, a new generation of Land Cruiser Prado, the younger brother "weaving", previously known as a model 90, was held, and recently his official sales began in Russia. (The previous generation of the car was produced for almost seven years. This is a short time - in an off-road segment age in width, and the change of generations is much less common than in the rest.) The external proportions of Prado are preserved, even the outlines of the windows are the same. But all outdoor panels are new, more plastic. The dimensions of the car increased. Due to the major, capable optics in the style of Avensis and Corolla, the car fits well into modern model a number of Toyota.. Nothing amazing - European Design Bureau ED2 worked on her appearance, which created Avensis.

Prado remained a real SUV - frame construction, continuous rear axle, full "razdatka" and a bunch of locks. New Engine - 4-liter V-shaped six capacity of 250 hp (More than the 4.7 liter eight-cylinder motor "HEMAL"). Such on Prado has not yet set.

It is called a "small cruel" ("weaving" half the meter is longer and 10 centimeters above). But this "small" accommodates three rows of seats and eight (!) Places - in the third, folding row there are three seat belts, and there really can be located three.

The latter has a Dual blocking button, which equalizes climate passenger and driver installations. Air flows are distributed in Toyotovsky, one button.

In the upper part of the console, the visor is located a multifunctional color display of the side computer, which shows the testimony of the compass, the stroke and altimeter. And also chronological data (fuel consumption, etc.) for the last hundred kilometers - in the form of graphs. Not too necessary thing, but spectacular.

Of course, ABS with the Brake Assist emergency braking system. It seems to have forgotten anything ...

We return to Georgia on off-road Toyota models

In Georgia, we are already the third time - and do not cease to be surprised. Country contradictions. Here in the conditions of incredible natural beauty live good-natured people. Kitchen - God forbid every people! Police sites are transparent in the literal sense of the word, and in them - polite workers without labor corns. With them, it is impossible to resolve the question of lovely, they are strict, but fair and humane. But there is another side. In many settlements, garbage does not export, and it covers the curb along the roads with a thick layer. Patrols meet as often as we are blinking, but for some reason a pedestrian in Georgia - consumablesWith no respect, and Georgian drivers are the embodiment of irresponsibility. But we are here on large allowers Toyota: Venza, Highlander and Prado. Strangle!

According to the forecasts of Toyota specialists, Venza in Russia will be increasingly popular. If over the past year we have bought 4426 cars, then the forecast for the 2014th - 4900. At the same time, 1097 five days have already been implemented for the first two months of this year.
