Could You Help Me To Find My Lucida?

[DRKOK]

I personally found this club extremely helpful and reassuring. There are a lot of good people out there who is trying their best to help each other. I am satisfied with my most of questions and worries. When I will become an owner I hope to contribute better.

Would any one help me or direct me to a private or trade dealer or importer where I could buy my Lucida?

I am looking for 1995 upward models of Lucida 2.2 TDI with 8 seats. Mileage should be below 60,000. J-top and the privacy rear windows are prime important so does the ABS (it appears not all models come with). It seams other extras are standard such as electric windows, dual sunroof. alloys, parking sonar, air bags, and curtains would be nice. I prefer metallic paint. My budget is £4000. I could stretch it little bit for a good sample.

Thank you for all your help in advance and hope to hear from you soon.

I have a 2.2 TD 8 seater, metallc 1995 Lucida which had 60,000 BUT cost 7K although from a dealer. Private sale might be cheaper option. To be honest J/K plates spotted around appear in as good knick as mine and around 5 - 6k dealership prices. ABS I believe became standard around '96 but before then you'll need to find one that had it fitted.

Fortunately our Japanese donators are mad keen on extra's so this should not be difficult. However looks, style, comfort appear to be more important that safety!

Tint, curtains fairly common although J-top more hard to find.

Good luck and happy motoring.

Thank you very much Ed. I actually found one 1995 model Lucida with J-Top from a dealer for £4500 with ABS and about on 60K mile. He also provides 6 months warrant. It has got all the usuals but without curtain, hot/cool box. Do you think it is a good buy? Thank you again.
