How much does this camper cost?

Wonderful, pump up your tire pressure up - looking very flat all around. Surprised no tachometer just blank logo. Australian diesel had Tachometers. Weird on luxury ? Version.

Japan...... They take real good care of their cars
@crxdelsolsir3 күн бұрын
I have thought about it this phenomena for the longest time. The only answer is their attitudes and care for their cars. Western attitudes in comparison have really low level of appreciation and care. To put simply, other nations level of care is likened to treating it classic or historic car owners. They are not treated as disposable, the mind is in the useful value not market value, treated as an irreplaceable item (like a house you cannot replace), believe it can and should be handed down, attitude it has no short terminal livespan but like classic car owners it can be used indefinitely. Western attitudes and treatment of cars and other things are really like a spoilt child that wants always new, less care, thinking it would be replaced by parents and no thoughts of the consequences of financial drain or environmental pollution. Many Western owners change cars every 2 to 4 years or believe running their cars to the ground allows them to get their money back and easier in their conscience to have disposed of a well worn out (prematurely, still repairable) car. Massive differences in mental attitudes (one is less ethical and indoctrinated heavily to artificially inflate consumption for profit generation to benefit business).

How much this van

Решение спорное с таким огромным туалетом. А вообще шикарный автодом, очень неожиданно, такой маленький кажется.

I like the vans better than the camper bodies. Leave the backup camera on. So nutty drivers and sasquatches cannot sneak up on you.

It’s gorgeous 👌 I recently saw a Japanese camper in Victoria and it was fitted out in quality you don’t see normally. The owner said he very happy with it, gave up on getting an Australian van due to high price and low quality. A company in Melbourne imports them👍

Yes, very cool and unusual. I’ve seen some rear bathroom Hiaces, but none as nice as this. This is in very good condition. The rear area fibreglass bears similarity to some of the elements in the Hiace ambulance. I agree that the manual 3L are a bit better (in my opinion, too) than the autos, but much rarer. Also, interested to know if the front passenger seat is fixed or can be slid forwards and back, please? I like that setup for the front passenger, and also with the better centre console, than just the foldable centre seat / back rest that turns into a shallow tray with fairly useless cup holders. I’m sure you know what I mean. Is the rear suspension leaf or coil, please? Looks a nice van!

You know your Hiaces! This one does have the 4 way adjustable front passenger seat and rear leaf springs!

awesome vans! but totally impractical outside of Japan. getting parts is impossibly slow. finding people to work on them? haha!
@OttoEx2 ай бұрын
Certainly valid concerns! In fact, these engines are super simple to work on. Minimal electronics, fully mechanical swirl chamber diesels. We have found that any Toyota mechanic worth their salt will have a breeze servicing these. The 100 series Hiace was produced and sold large numbers from 1989-2004 in most countries around the world, parts are widely available if you know where to look. Worst case it's a few extra days in shipping if something needs to come from further away. Many service parts such as filters, belts, shocks, cross reference with domestically (North America) available bits making it even easier.

@@OttoEx true enough! I have met with one guy living in one though and he was super afraid of doing long travels because finding parts is not impossible, but you need everything shipped overseas. they don't sell anything for them here.

High top vans with slide out penthouses beds are the best layouts. I have a sportsmobile very similar to this.
