Whether you’re looking for a van for personal or business use, with plenty of cargo space, this 1989 Toyota Hiace has you covered. The exterior on this example is in good condition and appears to be original paint. There is normal wear and tear as expected with a 25 year old van, but overall it’s in above average shape. It’s original in appearance and has features such as a rear back up mirror and auto-latching sliding door. Currently the odometer reads 74k original miles – Included are also Shaken(inspection) and maintenance records for the past 14 years.
The Hiace most certainly shines when it comes to the interior which is in very nice condition. It has seating for seven, rear climate control, and folding 3rd row seats for plenty of cargo space. A video display with RCA inputs has been added, but otherwise the interior is stock. The seats are in excellent condition with no rips or tears. The front door panels are slightly dirty but otherwise match the seats with no significant damage. The carpet and headliner are both free of major staining and the dash has no cracks or bubbles.
Mechanically this van runs excellently and is ready to be put to work. The 2RZ-E 2.4L inline four starts right away, idles smoothly, and performs well. Shifts through the automatic transmission are smooth and all systems have passed our inspection process. There 14 years of comprehensive inspection and maintenance records show it was well taken care of by the previous owner. Overall it would make a fantastic and unique daily driver – it would also be right at home as a work or delivery vehicle.
