Description

The owners purchased this car new in 1992 from the Toyota dealer in Jönköping, and it is the XL model, which comfortably seats 8 people. It comes with a fully documented history, including the original sales invoice for 176,300 kr, VAT included. Having owned many Toyotas within the company, this car became the owner's favorite, driven lightly or on special outings, which explains its remarkably low mileage today. The Previa was a groundbreaking people carrier in the 1990s, featuring a sleek design, a quirky mid-engine setup, and ample room to easily transport family and friends. It became highly sought after, and today, with only about 1,000 left on Swedish roads, it represents a valuable youngtimer investment that can still be enjoyed. The car is featured in this month's Klassiker magazine, and you can read the article in the attached PDF.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    As mentioned, the car runs and drives well during the test drive, with everything working as it should, thanks to Toyota's bulletproof quality. The car was retired in 2008 and has been stored in the owner's warehouse since then, with its last inspection in 2007. It will require a routine service and a general overview before it's ready to hit the road again with a new inspection. In August 2022, the engine oil and filter were changed on the car. The car has good wheels, small paint chips on the hubcaps, and good older tires.

  • Interior condition:

    The interior can best be described as like new, with only very minor signs of use. The only damage I could find was a small rip on the edge of the vinyl driver's seat, as shown in the picture.

  • Exterior condition:

    The bodywork is straight all around, with no signs of rust damage, and features a very clean and tidy underbody, albeit with light surface rust on some components. The paintwork is nice and clean, particularly impressive considering the car is over 30 years old. The paint on the roof is matte, but a small test rub revealed it starts to shine, indicating it would benefit from a polish, though it's unclear why this has occurred. There are minor imperfections, including a small scratch on the rear bumper, one small stone chip on the rear panel near the window, a few small stone chips around the front, and a scratch under the rear light, as shown in the pictures.

  • General condition:

    This car was a symbol of innovation in the 1990s and continues to impress with its modern appearance. Finding one in such pristine condition, with only 20,021 km on the odometer, is almost unheard of, making it an exceptionally appealing youngtimer to enhance your collection or garage.

  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
