1998 Toyota Harrier review from Australia and New Zealand
"A comfortable fast car with some off-road ability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing so far.. Only had it a few weeks. Clock is stuck on Japanese time which apparently can't be changed.
General comments?
Fast quiet and comfortable. Took 4 adults and their luggage on a 3 week 5000 km tour of New Zealand with no effort. Dealer provided an English manual which shows the operation of the Japanese marked stereo and trip computer. Tried it a little off-road in soft sand and wet grass. No problems. Also hauled a heavy trailer full of firewood up a steep gravel road with no slipping.
