1991 Toyota TownAce MasterAce review from UK and Ireland
"Very high spec. MPV at bargain prices"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only fault I have had so far is one of the springs in the ignition tumbler failed so I had to replace the ignition tumbler.
General comments?
The best people carrier I have seen for the money.
I got one of the lowest spec variants, but even so it comes with two air conditioning units and a fridge.
Not particularly quick, but will cruise happily at 70mph.
The internal layout can be changed very quickly and easily.
The inboard engine means that the internal space is disproportionately large compared to its competitors.
Seats 8 comfortably with plenty of space for luggage and prams.
The 4WD and off road suspension is surprisingly good over rough ground although the overhangs prevent any serious off-roading.
Incredible turning circle combined with excellent mirrors and high/forward seating position make parking a dream.
