Recommended Posts

Those of you that venture over the pond to our friends in the Good old US of A. the web site RAV4WORLD is off line again...

Seems some one likes hacking into the site and messing things up...

Message on the there site....

Hello RAVers - Our RAV4 forums are temporarily closed.

We are working on a PERMANENT fix to deal with the HACKS that occurred to our site on

December 3, 2007 and January 3, 2008. We realize the type of service we have provided

to our members over the past 30+ days is completely UNACCEPTABLE.

We are taking steps to remedy this issue!

PLEASE check back on Monday, January 7th for updates on the status of our upgrades.

We are planning some very BIG changes to our site over the next few weeks!

Thanks for your patience - Kelly (aka- RAVMAN)-

It's a good site for some good Toyota RAV doc's and information....Forum is a good laugh as well (they prefer spare wheels on the back, would love to have our Diesel's and T180 and also Stick Shifts as they say Manual to you and me...and applauded when they get over 22mpg :lol: :lol: )

Naw - thur winding ye up. Ah visit it weekly at least an subscribe to some posts. Nane o them want diesel and its 50:50 on manual or automatic. They recognise that the manual box can take around 250bhp against the auto box of 210bhp. Not that it wid wurry yous wi diesels. An anither thing - maist o them worry aboot the price of petrol when it hits 30cents a gallon so mpg isnae a big deal compared to maist hummers.

I can remember (I suppose about 1988) walking right accross the R&D facility to a room to keep checking if a one page graph had come off the printer! If there was a big que on the network it could take all morning.

Latest is that it will be another week for it to restart(14th Jan). They are upgrading the whole site to try and stop it being hacked as much.I,ve not had any P/M,s from Kelly so I presume everything will be OK once it restarts.

I think it is being hacked quite a lot at the moment. I think Kelly is going to town properly this time to try and get it really sorted, and add a few more tweeks to the site
