1986 Toyota Tarago GLS review from Australia and New Zealand
"Just like a limo!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Duel Air conditioner went and cost almost$600 to repair, also transmission needed attention and radiator.
General comments?
I enjoy the space and it is top of the range so is really comfy with every extra including a fridge!! there are 7 seats and 4 of them are captains chairs with armrests so great on long distances with a group of people. the motor is not extremely responsive, but it is almost 20 years old with quite a few klms so that has to be expected, but I can't imagine that these vans were really exciting to drive as far as engine performance goes even from new. However all in all a very versitile and comfortable and reliable vehicle.
