Hi guys,
Received an invitation to join the "Hafla" at the launch of the brand new, much awaited FJ Cruiser.
Can't afford to miss such occasions, so rescheduled my activities to be there.
This toy is designed to embrace the rough terrain and if you looking forward to some real off road fun, then here is the answer.
Not very bulky, compact and smart.
The front look reminds you of something (Guess :?). The rest of the design is contemporary.
Have not driven it yet, so can't comment on its handling.
