[font=Arial][b]Hi there everybody. Happy New Year. My history with Toyota starts in 1986. I sold brand new Toyota's. Starlets, Corollas, Coronas, Dyna trucks, HiAce Vans, SR5 Utes, Camrys, Crowns and Cressidas.

The first time I drove a fuel injected 2.0Litre Corona, I thought it was a 6 cylinder. I did not realise that it was only a 4 cylinder. It was a very powerful car.

Toyota's a great cars to sell. If I had difficulty trying to sell a car to a particular person-I always sent them back to their panel beater and to ask him which car he would like to repair after an accident-by comparison with other Japanese cars. None perferred other Japanese cars to repair. Toyota spare parts were normally readily available-at least in my experience.

That is enough for the time being.

Cheers

Welcome :)

Hi I live in NZ and keen to purchase a 4wd 3L diesel LWB Hiace. Any thoughts on best way to source one of these relatively rare 4wd beasts in NZ (? Import dealer)

Do you want the 3 litre non-turbo or the turbo version?

Personally I'd recommend the turbo model. They haul a$$.

Ive managed to find a 3.0 turbo diesel. You are right these things move well.

Is it just a basic van or is it the coach model with the seats and sunroofs and all that stuff?
