hi! i recently bought an H reg townace, 2.0TD 4WD auto.
does anyone know any uk vehicles with matching parts,i.e. i believe the engine is the same as the toyota camry, etc?
thanks in advance! - (#1714) eddie, 26 Dec 01

yup, engine is camry, carina,etc. Running gear is unique to the 4x4, although locking hubs, driveshafts, and some brake parts have other uses.
Gearbox is similar to Spacecruiser, although the rear is different to accept the transfer box.
There are common parts in the electrics, though... - (#1715) david miller, 27 Dec 01
