Townace 2.2td Manual - Any Experience? Mpg?

[KGM]

Hi,

Looking at buying a 1996 Townace Noah Super Extra 4WD, 5 speed 2.2TD MANUAL. Does anyone have any idea of MPG? I've been told its on 86BHP, this sounds like it might be very sluggish - can anyone comment (I haven't been to test drive yet as its miles away)? Do the Townaces have the same overheating/head gasket/radiator concerns that I've seen written about imported lucida/estima's?

Any other advice?

Thanks in advance

Thats exactly what I bought. Has plenty of power & drives like a dream. Had a Daihatsu sportrak before & the Townace seems slighty better on fuel. Only had it for a week though so a little too early to say MPG.
