1998 Toyota TownAce deluxe review from UK and Ireland
"Handles like a jelly on ice skates very comfy though"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Curtain trims fell off.
Tends to overheat on long runs i. e 30 miles + at 3000rpm or more so I have to slow down as soon as speed alarm goes off i. e 60-65kmh fuse box tricky to work with.
Fault with l/h e/w (switch faulty)
(no fault, but red button on gearbox lets you select gears without pressing brake)
