Nice van , the CVT needs a little TLC as there are a couple of wear parts that need to be replaced , the brushes and the powder clutch and the trans filter but not a horrid thing . Sun roof is probably an easy fix also . The biggest thing is the seats and all the little trim pieces that are missing like the grab handles the coin pocket for the dash ( the big hole to the left of the steering wheel and just a block off plate for the little hole like the ones higher up on the dash . )

I think it’s a perfect little project kei van for someone a lot of potential. Especially the people who don’t know how to drive stick

Scott here. You need to buy this!

I love those little Sambars, especially the supercharged dias’

Nice Sambar, could u do a review for the Daihatsu Atrai 7 behind it as well? Kinda love Daihatsu but I think they are rare in America 😂

I'd buy it for my daily, biggest knock for me is lack of back seats but that's an easy fix.

yeah the seats worse case are 1k shipped from japan but you can probably find someone selling some in the USA in the facebook groups

Very nice! especially if its something someone wants to use daily, my kei van is mint and it stops me abusing it or modding it. That's s good usable one

Totally agree, a little TLC could take this van a long way

How would i link you in person?

I want to suggest you find a NYC NV200 taxi to review. They are really cool. Unlike the nv200 you can buy at a dealership, they have a sunroof, and fully upholstered interior, and side glass. I want to buy a retired one, and paint it another color. There are a bunch of retired ones for sale near you.

With the amount of Kei cars and trucks etc a sign the mileage is higher is worn seats and pedals ,

Nah too pricey, maybe for 3k. Missing seats and most likely huge repairs afterwards. Remember that CVT breaking will be really expensive. Manual transmission will be better .
