Small, confined spaces don’t usually bother me but I couldn’t last for more than an hour on the FJ’s second row. Try and imagine a dark cell with limited legroom, poor ventilation and nothing but a small sealed window to peep through. Let me start with a warning: if you’re a family man and you buy an FJ you deserve to be reported to child welfare. No, we got the 4.2 straight-6 naturally aspirated diesel donk.įorget the FJ’s abilities – I love this vehicle simply for its uniqueness, its boldness, and the fact that it’s unlike any Toyota this country’s ever seen. Even the Land Cruiser 76 with its TDV8 engine. As far as model options go we never get the cool stuff from Toyota, like the Supra, the Tundra, the Celica and the original Ferrari-fast MR2. That the FJ actually made it to our end of Africa is a shock to me. We got hold of one and found that although it’s not the ideal overlander, it’ll make an entertaining mockery of just about any off-road terrain. ![]() Toyota took their time to treat the South African market to a vehicle as boldly out-there as the fiery FJ Cruiser.
