1988 Toyota TownAce Royal Lounge 4x4 review from UK and Ireland

The radiator had to be replaced shortly after I

bought the vehicle because of a bad repair by the

previous owner.

Had two new alternators. The first new alternator

was replaced under guarantee.

New starter motor.

New front suspension bushes.

New front shock absorber bushes.

My Town Ace is a 6/7 seater, but 8 seater's are

available.

My Town Ace has 6 skylight sunroofs, 4 of which

open and all have shutters.

My Town Ace has air con, hot / cold box, electric

curtains, captains chairs, seats in the rear that

can turn 180 degrees, electric curtains, climate

control, & tinted windows.

The gear box is automatic with overdrive and is

very smooth.

The engine is the same as used in the Toyota

Space Cruiser, but in my Town Ace it is fuel

injected and gives adequate performance.

The vehicle is very comfortable and roomy and

easy to drive.

It will average 30mpg on a good run, but around

town this will drop to 20mpg.

Overall I am very pleased with my Town Ace and

I intend to keep her for many more years to come.

It is 18 years old, but shows very little sign

of its age. The body is in A1 condition and the

engine is still running like new.
