Considered one of these but the crash protection is not good so went for the later model with All Terrain Wildpeak tyres and it is a surprisingly capable off-roader.

These imports look awesome, perhaps I should grab one. Great video!

Please do! Thanks for the love!

They're worth buying, it's basically a Hilux under there. Drives like a truck. I drove my 2.5L TD up a mountain of sand and it made it in one go with just all season tires. Lots of room for a bed and all your stuff. Super reliable and gets good mileage. Put a nice stereo in it with a sub and it's perfect. Some have a built in 100watt inverter with a house outlet in the front and the very back for like a phone charger or a computer or whatever. Toyota 4-Runner wheels will fit on it as well, just fyi.

Oh and you can fit diff lockers if you want to make it a true 4x4 if it didn't already come with. Not sure about the newer ones, mine is a 2005.

@VanLyf 6 месяцев назад

I’m planning on putting a locker in it at some point! Plus some bigger tyres when mine wear out :)

2:31 - air intake filter housing underwater there....

@VanLyf 2 месяца назад

Yes but not sure how far to the intake, wasn’t game to give it a crack, I’m thinking about building a snorkel one day :)

@BullyHayes1977 2 месяца назад

@@VanLyf yes - very hard to find a manufactured snorkel for H200

Nice video. Have a Japan 4wd commuter petrol. Love them. Do you have ATT on? I have Kumho AT 52 ‘s on, big difference. Did you lift your van 50 mm? Eazy to do and cheap.

@VanLyf 7 месяцев назад

Hi thanks! My van came standard with a small lift, I’m currently just running the snow tyres it had on it when imported, just aired down to 25psi to increase traction, though bigger wheels and tyres when they are worn out!

@user-ok8et5rl3n 6 месяцев назад

Great van ! What is the mpg on it ??

@jackhood1411 6 месяцев назад

my 2005 KDH205 Hiace get's like 28-29mpg on the highway. 2.5L Diesel, all time all wheel drive.

@VanLyf 6 месяцев назад

It gets around 11l/100kms around town or 8/100 on the freeway, I think that’s 21.5 and 28

@sn0wchyld 5 месяцев назад

@@VanLyflol thats better than mine - more like 13-15 depending on load. Mines the 2.7 petrol though...

@roscored1000 6 месяцев назад

does this have a lift in it yet?

@VanLyf 6 месяцев назад

Yes it has a very small lift in it, but it’s just longer shackles in the rear and the front torsion bars are wound up. Currently searching for the parts required to improve the suspension!
