Hi someone with background in auto matters mentioned Toyota were planning on selling Alphards in UK market. Anyone heard anything like that or is it just Chinese whispers? I don't understand why they don't sell these lovely family vans in European markets? Doesn't make any sense..

Would that not be ‘Japanese whispers’……..I’ll get my coat…..

3.5Z Platinum Selection…..

I have heard nothing, official or otherwise, but would not be surprised if Toyota UK was aware how popular Alphards are becoming and is considering exploring the market.

 

I guess getting the support from their Official UK Dealership organisation could be problematic; training and equipment costs, etc.

 

Hopefully they do and, eventually, the availability of Alphies and Vellies will improve substantially, and getting a service by Toyota UK will no longer be a problem.

 

Not to say anything about the Lexus version.
