[NeillOP]

Hi all
I'm looking for a photo of a Hilux pickup that is full of armed men, like they use in Afghanistan and Africa. After trawling the net I've drawn a blank, Anyone know where I can find one?

It's a generous offer, but I was hoping for something more Indiana Jones than Snatch!

They'd be more scratch than snatch.

These any good?

Thanks Pete, these are better than any thing I've found, but I was looking for a picture from the front/side, with a Toyota racing along and a load of men with long robes and AK47s looking menacing standing in the back, or a ragtag army type bunch with bandoliers etc.
It's to use on a T shirt that takes the p*** out of Land Rovers...

Neil, good luck with the search. There were some pics doing the rounds a few years ago, try searching the net for Taliban, or Afghanistan, (with Toyota included of course)

heres the accomodating text

TOKYO — Toyota Motor Corporation denied today that it was selling trucks to the Taliban. "We sell large numbers of expensive vehicles to small, impoverished religious schools in Pakistan," said a spokesman for Toyota. "We don't know what becomes of the vehicles. But we do know that the schools' favorite optional extras are gun racks."

Whatever the official position, it is apparent that Al Qaeda and Taliban fighters' favorite vehicle is the Toyota four-wheel-drive truck.

Osama Bin Laden and Mullah Omar insist on being driven in luxurious Toyota Land Cruisers. For ordinary fighters, the vehicle of choice is the Toyota Hilux, a pickup truck.

Acknowledging that their trucks do end up in Taliban hands, a Toyota spokesman actually said, "It is not our proudest product placement, but it shows that the Taliban are looking for quality and durability."**
