Nissan caravan NV350 E26 or Toyota Hiace

[maxtech]

Looking to purchase one of these vehicles. If you guys have any personal experience with them or recommend the best one.
New or Rollon of off. I've got a qout for the Nissan new and it's $219k that's a bit much but I'm gonna check Toyota soon to compare. Thanks much guys

The toyota may be more than the nv300 eh...

Those nv300 are class 4 also at 3400kg mgw.

The local hiace are class 3.
The roro are class 4.

From what i was told, the nv300 experience similar issues with the zd30 e25 like injector pump and turbo.
So preventative maintenance is is key.

The hiace carry the hilux engines 1kd and 2kd. Not sure if they updated the engine on the newer models. So look out for similar issues: injector problems


Each comes with options for wide base and taller roof height.

Spare parts?

I like the Hiace, they does take good jamming, agreed on the preventive maintenance, if you're looking at roro there's a guy who specializes in importing vans

Just beware: that if a roro van have 30,000km on it, thats actually over 200,000km.

the e25 3.0 is not turbo but I think the e26 is turbo now and was told the turbo is up front, so a lil bounce in front and could be some work to fix

It is foolish to assume that a Nissan can ever compete with a Toyota.

Toyota quality is way above anything Nissan offers. People buy Nissan because parts cheap and because the vehicle generally cheap, people buy Toyota for durability.

There nothing after a Toyota. Has people who buy Toyota for life and keep it till they dead

Mitsubishi stop making the l300 and actually sold their truck arm of the business. L300 didnt have much power but a real workhorse.

Need a van for transport for new year, and on a blue moon, we may need scaffolding, so I'm considering which one, as 99 % of time time I need a large covered area. The nv350 roro seems really good now price wise, as opposed to buying a used hiace(I know Toyota is better.... But its used)

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Transport....nothing beats the two options that rovin posted(h100 and the kia)....men does real beat up them thing

Can't make money without spending money. The key with any vehicle is maintenance. Same vehicles some say is headache, someone else will say is the best thing ever. I have a pardner with 4 Hiace, 1 regular with seats, 1 panel van and 2 Ventury ( that's the fully loaded with leather heated and massage seats etc) all are used daily to transport personnel to Pt Lisas, Galeota, airport and hotels etc. Doesn't play with maintenance and has had little to no downtime, no major parts changed. Vehicles have been on the road between 2-4 years
