1993 Toyota Previa 2 Dr LE Passenger Van

Review

This vehicle has been far and away the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. It currently has 224,000 miles. The biggest repair I've had to make is replacing the distributer and spark plug wires. The thing just keeps going and going. The interior has held up remarkably well. We have 3 kids and there are no material tears or other obvious signs of wear.

Favorite Features

Electric sunroof, cruise control.

Review

I've had this van for 11 years and it is still jammin right along. Rust proofing is the key in Hawaii but there has been no major mechanical problem.It turns on a dime. Great viewing from all seats. I kept it so long because I love the wave shaped (or W shaped some call it dashboard. I wish all mimni SUV's ( my next car now that my kids are grown) had it. It's marvelous, feels spacious, the glove compartment could be a mini ice chest! And when i'm the passenger I rest my feet up on it, it's so perfect. Hard to clean inside of windshield, it's quite a reach but worth it. And to keep it defrosted in the rain here I had to put the air conditioner on it.

Favorite Features

Shape,size, easy fold up seats, turning radius, and of course the dashboard!

Suggested Improvements

I tried to submit mileage, do I have to spell it out in letters? fFOURTEEN THOUSAND AND FIVE HUNDRED A YEAR. It now has 164,000 miles!

Review

I've had the car for 6 years as the main family car. I don't want a new one since my 3 kids are making a mess out of everything and that way I don't even care if it gets dinged. It performs so well I don't feel the need to buy a new van (even though this one is 10-year old). The brakes are a chronic problem, I have to put in $500/year to fix them. Had to replace the starter twice. Otherwise no problems.

Favorite Features

Size (BBIIGG), utility...

Suggested Improvements

Fix the brakes problem. Add another door.
