1998 Toyota Hiace Campervan Manual Diesel

$8,500
1998 Toyota Hiace Campervan Manual Diesel

ODO: 301,800 km (mostly highway kms)

This van is in great condition for its age and has been well serviced regularly throughout its life. It has had 2 previous owners prior to us (1 tradesperson, one camper). Fluids have always been kept topped up and filters replaced as needed. It starts and drives well and is very reliable - a good example of the legendary '98 Hiace diesel - they just keep on going.

It has an immobiliser fitted, which can be turned on/off using the central locking and gives added anti-theft security.

It has been fitted out as a convertible campervan with wall insulation (nice temperature and quiet for sleeping), white interior wall panels, raised timber bed frame with lots of storage underneath including a solid timber drawer that doubles as a benchtop when extended out the back under the boot for shelter. This whole internal camper rig self-locks over the wheelbase and can be removed back to the baseboard and carpet for use as a removal or delivery van - *life hack*.

Additional campervan bits and bobs include:
- IKEA double mattress mattress protector
- custom made blackout curtains
- Thule brand hand-fitted removable roof racks
- large tarp, extendable poles and rope (for big DIY awning)
- fitted fire extinguisher
- 20 L water drum
- large folding trestle table
- some camping cutlery and crockery

My partner and I have taken this van on many trips around NSW, QLD, VIC and SA, camping and at festivals, moved house with it since we bought it in 2020 and yes we are sad to see it go, but with starting a new family we needed something with more seating capacity - the Hiace has 3 front seats with belts only.

Issues: I'm selling it without a RWC because the headlights are a bit dodgy (only work on high beam atm). To fix them would require replacing the front bumper unit, not just the bulb. Some of the plastic housing for the headlights and bumper is broken and is temporarily held with gaffer tape (which has held for a long time). See pics. To replace the whole bumper lights will probably be $100-200 if you're willing to find the spare parts and fit them yourself, but I don't have the time to do it and don't want to pay a mechanic to do it. The external lock on the drivers side door has been damaged by someone trying to break in to the van (with a screwdriver most likely), but it can be locked from the inside. This would take an additional $100-200 to fix. Because of these issues I'm selling it for $9.5k instead of $10k. Again, the vehicle starts and drives fine and it's currently registered so I'll let the buyer drive it on the day of purchase then I will cancel the rego that evening once you've safely driven it home or to a garage.

Please only message me if you are genuinely interested in inspecting the van in person and/or buying it. This will minimise time wasted for everyone. I prefer a call or text on the mobile rather than messages via the ad. Regards, Gus. ******** 272
