Toyota Cresta LX100 Turbo Diesel! Very Rare!

This is a very rare version of the popular Toyota Cresta X100 with a 2.4L Turbo Diesel engine! These are not spotted in the wild very often and when they are they have usually been mistreated and have done very high kms.

We found this one and decided to buy it. The engine is the same basic unit that is fitted to Hiaces and Hilux of the same age. It's very reliable usually if maintained. These engines use a traditional rotary diesel pump which will work with salad oil or similar.

The body work is straight and rust free over all. It has some aftermarket alloy wheels fitted.

The interior is very good, the only real problem is the emblem is faded on the driver's floor mat. Otherwise it's really good inside. It's a non smoker's car. It's a very simple car with not many gadgets. It drives really well though and the diesel turbo with automatic actually works quite well. The suspension seems tight with no knocks or bangs and it's fairly comfortable to drive.

First registered in March 1997 this car is eligible for import into the USA or Australia under the 25 year old rules.
