No problem mate! Jolly glad it's now gone back to being a lovely cooperative little thing! Cheers, Nev

I really appreciate you looking into that. I took the new bulbs out and reinstalled them. No afs light flashing now. I think I either didn’t connect them correctly or the wiring was obstructing the lense to stop it rotating. Thanks again

i remember when i took my 20 series alphard to france.. in a service station and people walked to the back looking and could here them talking about it.. definitely got attention, pretty rare to see. You will enjoy the power... it was the selling point when i showed the guy. he was impressed how such a big wagon powers up when it wants to. Same engine as Lotus evora (which i have driven on a track) so plenty of grunt.

Thanks! 😊 It was auction-graded 4/B in Japan, with 78,456 km on the clock, so hopefully it lives up to its reputation! It's a January 2014 Vellfire 3.5 V6 Premium Edition with the Modellista body kit. It's still on its way to France, so I'm counting down the days until I can finally get behind the wheel! 😂 And you're right, these vans really do seem to be in a league of their own!

Welcome, these are fantastic vehicles. :) Yours looks in good condition. Once you go Toyota Alphard you never want to go back. Nothing is the same.

Hello from France! 🇫🇷 Hi everyone, My name is POOV and I'm from France. I'm really pleased to have joined the forum! I've recently bought a 2014 Toyota Vellfire 3.5 V6 (GGH20W) in Japan, and it's currently on its way to France. It's a white Premium model with the Modellista body kit, seven seats and plenty of luxury features. I'm really looking forward to finally getting it home and enjoying it with my family! I've always liked Japanese vehicles, and after owning a Mercedes Viano for several years, I wanted something comfortable, spacious and reliable for family trips. With two young children and two Bernese Mountain Dogs, the Vellfire seemed like the perfect choice! As the car needs to go through the French homologation process before it can be registered, I've still got a little waiting to do before I can drive it. In the meantime, I'm keen to learn as much as possible about these vehicles, particularly maintenance, common issues, useful upgrades and ways to improve the Japanese infotainment system. I'm looking forward to learning from your experience and sharing my own journey as I get the Vellfire ready for the road. Thanks for having me, and greetings from France! POOV
