I stumbled upon this site today and even though the site is in French, the
video will be appreciated by anyone with admiration for a craftsman at work
:-)
Enjoy

Hi,
We're new to the Australian car market and are looking for a vehicle
that seats 7 people, and when the rear seat is folded down, 5 people
(adult and 2 young children in car seats in the second row of seats).
Our budget is AU$30,000, therefore we guess that we'll be looking at
second-hand vehicles.
Since this will be the only vehicle our family will have, reliability
is paramount for us. Also, we intend to keep the vehicle for a long
time so resale value is not as important to us.
In addition to this, we will be transporting 2 young children so
safety is equally important. Safety features we'd like to have are:
ABS, traction control, stability control, front and side airbags for
the front row, curtain airbags for the other rows, brakeforce
distribution, brake assist.
And finally, fuel economy is also important though less so than
reliability and safety. We do not intend to tow anything at all -
we'll probably use a roof-mounted cargo pod for excess cargo.
We would appreciate your responses to the following questions:

Is it possible (read: easy) to fit a reversing camera to a TS territory?
It already has the multifunction screen, and I'm guessing the wiring loom
would probably be common, to keep manufactuing costs down through
consistency.
Doable??
