Necroire, thanks for sharing the pics.

Your post was moved into the "New 90 series Members say hi here first. Chit chat ok" thread because it is not tech related.

Hi all! / Hola a todos!!!

I'm Liz from Venezuela... glad to have found this forum thru a link at http://groups.msn.com/clubmeruvenezuela/links.msnw

I am the proud owner of a 2006 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado Meru (Prado 3 doors in Venezuela). I have been a TLC owner since 1991 and have no complaints. I just came back from a great trip to La Gran Sabana which was like a major off-road 4x4 test for my car...and my dad's Prado (5 door, 95 series?) as well.

Will be around at least once a week to check messages as I do a bit of traveling during the week.

Take care all, drive responsibly and enjoy but don't destroy nature!
Liz

ladyliz68 · 04-14-07, 11:47 PM

Wow! Had no idea you had the 90 in Ireland....

We don't get it (Meru) here with sunroof!

Welcome to mud Liz! You are the first female member of the 90 series section

I cruised La Gran Sabana back in 1989, we drove from Caracas to El Pauji and back, probably one of the greatest trips I've ever been on. I'd be great to see pics from your trip, feel free to start a new thread with pics if you have any.

You're very lucky to be able to purchase brand new 90 series Prados in Venezuela (mine is a Japan-made 1997, purchased in Chile). Venezuela, Colombia & Ecuador are the only countries were you can still buy a brand new 90 series.

Check out this thread: http://forum.ih8mud.com/showthread.php?t=86119

Hope to see you here often, welcome again!

Hi, I'm from the Philippines. been driving a Prado for 2yrs. I own a 97 Prado 3RZF 2.7. This site is awesome. Finally a forum for LC90 Prado. There aren't a lot of sites out there actually. I'm attaching a pic of my ride.

TEPUI · 04-26-07, 05:35 PM

Welcome to the forum

Our 90 series forum is growing fast, and we have members from many countries!

That's an interesting configuration, 3RZFE engine on a 4 door with luxury trim, is that common in the Phillipines? I had seen those bumper guards before but never seen the hood ornament on a 90 series. Those headlights were available in Phillipines in 97? Are they HID?

Hope to see you here often!

thanks. this prado was heavily modified by the previous owner. i think he imported the luxury trims, bought the bumper guards locally since it's easily available here. the headlights were modified by me early this year (i used black and amber spraypaint). and yes i've also upgraded them to hid

ladyliz68 · 04-28-07, 07:59 AM

Thanks for the warm welcome! Como estas???
I will open a thread with just a few photos as we took over 300 and most have a family member in them... I will also post a quick pic of my TLC here in a bit...might not look awesome as it was taken with my mobile...LOL!

Now I am off to Caracas for the Weekend, might even go to the Venezuela Off-Road Festival in Valencia tomorrow!

ladyliz68 · 04-28-07, 08:39 AM

Enjoy!

alvarorb · 04-28-07, 03:35 PM

Those pics of La Gran Sabana bring back great memories.
What places did you visit?

Very cool

Alvaro

ladyliz68 · 05-01-07, 05:40 PM

We went to loads of places... lots of sightseeing...
El Toroncito, Aponwao, Quebrada de Jaspe, Quebada de Pacheco, San Francisco de Yuruani to do serious shopping and eating, El Pauji twice and obviously up to El Abismo, Boa Vista (Brasil), also visited several places in Santa Elena de Uairen as I have freinds there, Arapena Meru (Soroape), Kama Meru, El Mirador del Oso, and so many more I can't really remember all.

I had gone to Gran Sabana 17 years ago and visited some other places as well... it was less crowded back then and more pristine!

Where did you go back then?

ladyliz68 · 05-01-07, 05:50 PM

Awesome...can I post a pic of mine here?

ladyliz68 · 05-01-07, 05:57 PM

When my 90 was brand new...

alvarorb · 05-02-07, 03:55 AM

Last time I was there was in 1994. It's been a while.
It's a really awesome place. No other quite like it.

I'm travelling now, but when I get back home I'll look up some of the pics I've got from La Gran Sabana. We used to go there every year.

Regards

Alvaro

ladyliz68 · 05-05-07, 04:29 PM

Thanks Alvaro, happy trails and a safe return home!!!
