18-30mpg!! That's impressive for a v6! Is that on petrol or is yours lpg converted? 😊

Hi everyone!

I'm looking at purchasing a new family bus soon, and the alphard is on the short list 😊 

I don't know a huge amount about them, so thought I'd join, and learn the ropes as it were. 

I've had an Elgrand in the past, and for the most part I really liked it.....kinda. It seemed a bit flimsy tho. And Nissan dealers don't want to know you if your driving a jap import it seems. 😂 

We like cars that are different, but need at least 6 seats. We've previously had a disco v8 (fuel economy was woeful tho, when it was over fuelling due to an electronic problem it got 100 miles to £100 of petrol! 😂😳) the aforementioned Elgrand, and currently got a 1994 Isuzu bighorn jap import. And if Toyotas customer care is anything like Isuzus the I'll be happy. My local dealer can always get any bits I need to fix my truck, straight from Japan. 

Thanks for reading this boring essay, any advice, hints or tips or even just a wave is welcome 😊

Hi, another importer to consider is new acre cars in Coventry, they get very good reviews from what I can find.
