Regular reader and long-time friend, Dave, is launching Tomcars in Australia and asked me to post up something on the damned things. In blatant violation of my non-commercial policy (unless its for me), I’ve agreed on the basis of getting a free tomcar.

What are these tomcars you speak of?

The Tomcar was designed to bring the adventure of off-roading to everyone. Because the delights of going off-road are not just the private domain of the rich or the specially trained, we created a unique car that can take anyone anywhere, bringing them back safely without going to great expense or acquiring lengthy training.

The Tomcar is the product of 33 years spent building high-performance vehicles for both military and commercial clients who demanded affordability, reliability and above all, safety. We looked closely at everything we’d learned about automotive technology and the physics of driving. Then “civilized” it, by wrapping it in an easy-to-drive package with many safety features.

The result is a vehicle that is lightweight, with high ground clearance, a low center of gravity and a very forgiving design. So it’s ready for military and industrial duty or a weekend in the dirt. It gets into, and out of places its SUV counterparts are unable to, regardless of the drivers’ skill level. And it’s been designed so that all parts can be accessed and repaired, or replaced, in the field.

Learn more about them on their website – Tomcar Australia. And if you are in Oz, then go buy yourself a new present (and remind David that he owes me a tomcar now).
