Just a simple request, does anybody know or have they heard of a RHD version of the Borrego yet?? More importantly one for the Australian market??

it from the front does remind me of the ssuburu foester [2009] to bad subby didnt actually do this it is so much more refined looking but ladder body chasis is a little outdated as long as its ig looking has 16 litre fuel consumption and a crappy interior the americans will buy it in droves

HOT 4wd…seems like Hyundai-Kia link is great and changing landscape and will effect Toyota and others….. Toyota mainly. LOOK OUT AS HYUNDAI i30 ALREADY AHEAD ON TOYOTA ON RELIABILITY AND QUALITY AND STORMING AHEAD IN US. IT IS EASY TO GET TO TOP OF TREE AND HARDER TO STAY THERE!

From side on it looks like a Pajero……….sorta and the front grill reminds me of the 2009 Suby Forester!

Matt, 100% correct.

Series 1 was recalled to have a mod. done to brakes.

Series 2 has improved brakes and is what i drive [2004], the brakes *just* pass ADR comp. for stopping performance.

The pedal is soft and travels LONG way towards the carpet before it starts to bite and stop.

Its going latter in the year, getting a all new Hyundai TQ? Van, soon as they hit the wharf [April?]

Req. rear barn doors and auto-tranny.

All in all the Bongo [Pregio] has been ok, never broke down or let me down…BUT watch the brakes, NEVER pull in front of one at traffic lights, u have been warned! :-)
