1990 Toyota Space Cruiser GL review from UK and Ireland
"Well worth having if you can use the space"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Leaking windscreen within warranty period; windscreen replaced.
There have been continuous electrical problems caused by corrosion of the alternator. This has been repaired several times. The fault is due to the position of the alternator.
New starter at 100000 miles.
Considerable rust (it is kept outside)
General comments?
This car is very useful for carrying people (if you are meeting someone at the airport the whole family can go!) and there is room for suitcases too. Great also for carrying almost anything, even wardrobes (you have the height and length). It has a surprisingly small turning circle. The downside is the lack of stability... I tested this once, on an empty road I braked suddenly when approaching red lights and suddenly found myself in the adjoining lane. Petrol consumption is on the high side.
