Normally with cars, for safety the light comes on with more miles available then you think or it shows. My last car was a Mercedes A-Class and the warning light came on when the car said it had 50 miles left, it would then do a lot more then 50 miles. Rule of thumb is never to let it get that low because it will drag up settlement from the tank.

I have just picked up a new Vellfire and wanted to say that the dealer at this site is excellent. No hard sell, he let the car do the talking. Had a great selection to chose from. Cars are advertised on Ebay, Autotrader , RAC cars and Parkers.

Just wanted to say hi. Hopefully picking up our first Toyata Vellfire this week. I say hopefully as insurance seems to illusive. The insurance companies don't seem to know a 240Z and don't seem to understand it's just a slight trim level change. Got a lot of waiting for phone calls to get it insured. Looking forward to the extra space as I have been driving a 2019 Mercedes A-Class for the last 4 years. Thank you in advance for all the answers to questions I will have.

Hi. Hopefully picking up a 2009 Vellfire next week. This is not a new import so luckily its already been changed to MPH and the head unit has been changed. It is currently a Sony unit with android auto, however the rear camera is disconnected. I wanted to update it to an Android tablet units and see the same units that are available on Aliexpress in the UK at higher prices. I would be fitting it myself as it is something I have done in the past, but wondered if anybody had purchased these units from Aliexpress, do they come with the surround and what experiences have you had?

Thanks for your answers. The car I was looking at was a 2007 3.0L Alphard with 51000 miles. Its advertised at £10500, but I am not too sure at the price. It has the double sunroof and the two seperate middle seats as opposed to the bench seats.

Hi all. Looking to change my and get a nice MPV and my eye has been taken by the Alphard / Vellfire. I worked out that it is the same car apart from the Vellfire is a bit more luxurious. Don't know yet whether to go ahead so I thought I would ask some advice from owners. First this is servicing. How easy is it to get these serviced and parts when things go wrong, with them being imported. Second thing is to do with the language. The car is imported from Japan so I assume that the incar equipment is in Japanese, can this be changed. The third is the dashboard, as miles and miles per hour is not the thing they use in Japan, I assume that the dials are metric. The car I have at the moment has a digital dash that can change between metric and imperial, I am guessing that this is not the case on the Toyota. Do they do replacement dials. If anybody has any other advice for a could be owner that that would be great. Thanks in advance
