Hi Everyone,
I notice that there are a few people who have /had delicas so I am hoping for advice from someone experienced in both types of car.
I need an 8 seat car to take my 6 kids to and from school/daycare etc - the general day to day stuff, so fuel economy is a factor. But I also want to be able to go off road. Just light stuff, some minor bush tracks and the beach while towing our camper trailer (which weighs about 1000kgs when filled), so the engine needs to be powerful. I like the comfort of the delica, and the space inside. I like the air con for the whole car. But I like the power and reliability of the prado, and the wind down windows. I used to have a 100 series l'cruiser, which was great if you didn't have to sit in the back row and didn't need to take stuff with you.
I don't like diesel cars, so will be getting a 6 cyl petrol car whichever way I go.
Can everyone please let me know their experiences and pros and cons of these vehicles. As it says in the subject, my budget is very small and therefore I would be looking at a late 90s car.
Thanks for your help
Belinda
