It's originally from Japan, I imported it from Canada. I used it as a camper, but can be taken back to normal with 5 minute and a screw driver. It's very small, but very economical and fun. It's tall and open, and there's a lot more space inside than it appears. It has a platform bed in right now, but underneath that are two seats that pop up. It gets around 30 mpg pretty consistently between highway and city. It's perfect for a single, but I road tripped with a buddy fairly comfortably as well.
Everything works great! Brand new front brakes, extremely well maintained (Had all fluids checked/changed if needed on within the last 2,000 miles), and receipts for all maintenance done. It has 104,000 kilometers, but that's only like 65,000 miles, so this is a baby. It's all wheel drive and supercharged, has decent clearance for its size, and does well on dirt roads or what have you. It has a decent aftermarket sound system for its size. The only bad is that there is a crack in the rear right side panel, no affect on performance, and not very noticable. The interior is in good condition with exception of a few camping marks that I have pictured. It also maxes at about 65-70. I usually drive about 55 just cause I don't want to push the engine, fuel economy goes down, and I like watching the world go by in the slow lane, but it will go faster if you want. It's perfect for around town though because the size and visibility make it extremely maneuverable for lane switching and parking. It's 5 speed manual with an extra low 6th gear (more tork) for climbing extreme hills or on bumpy terrain. It's right hand drive which makes driving fun, it's really quick to pick up, took me like 10 minutes to get a feel for it. This thing is a serious head turner. I'm not kidding when I say wherever I go it strikes up conversation, or even stopped at lights, people want to know, it has generated some really good times, but it's time for me to let it go. Would be great for road trips, advertising, a family car, work rig, or just a commuter. Multi talented!
The van is 100% legally registered, licensed, and insured in washington state, and ready to hit the road in Oregon!
I will be heading back to Northern Washington in the next couple days of it doesn't sell, so check it out now if you are interested. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions. Thanks!
