Ah, Foton View, an absolute classic. This model originated from the 1989 Toyota HiAce H100. In the 2000s, many Chinese car companies introduced Toyota's technology and launched their own modified HiAce models. This is an early Foton View, which is very rare and may have been brought to Africa by the Chinese engineering team. It uses a 2.5-litre 4J25TC TDi engine, which is also rare, because the common H100 uses a gasoline engine or a 2.8-litre 4JB1. It doesn't seem to be in a good state now, but this is a precious classic. Please treat it well.

China has made many vans that copied the Toyota Hiace. Many parts are broken and the steering wheel is not at the right angle, but it doesn't appear to have any major problems with use. Africa seems to have a lot of used cars imported from various countries around the world. It would be fun to look for traces of homeland in some cars! Ford SUV from America. Mercedes truck from Germany. Nissan hatchback from Japan. From the perspective of automobiles, Africa is both a new second life and a land that will become a graveyard.

@televisionandcheese2 жыл бұрын
It's not really dangerous, even if the car has power steering you can still steer without it Similarly with assisted brakes, they will still work for a few minutes or several full brake pedal pushes before vacuum runs out, and after that you can still brake without issue, just need to push the pedal harder the real danger is from turning off the engine by the key, you can very easily turn the key barrel too far back, and the steering lock may engage! This is very dangerous when driving if this occurs.

@jonytube2 жыл бұрын
It's dangerous because the car is basically freewheeling. With the engine on and in gear, the engine itself helps the car to brake, but besides that you also have vacuum on the brake lines which makes the pedal a LOT softer, without vacuum you almost have to put your whole weight on the pedal. You will also have power steering, ESC, ABS and all other electronic driving assists. You can drive a car with the engine off but keep the key on the barrel for the steering not to lock. You just won't have any assist and it's very dangerous to do so because you're basically inside a 2ton metal jail soapbox car.
