For now, I want to stick with a Toyo for this one. I may need to sell it quick in the future.

I'm interested in a 7-seater.
I worry about ISIS interior. Might be too delicate.
LiteAce is not so beautiful.

Shame on you I just joined the forum and here I am. I've been in this business upcountry for close to three years now. I can tell you that the townace is your best bet. It is quite hardy and most importantly, spare parts are widely available and consequently cheap. However, for some reason, the diesel engine one tends to fail after a short while so if you're not the first local owner, watch out.

@AlphDoti
Adjust the depreciation percentage to 70% then make sure you get a cr whose first date of registration is between Jan 2006 upto the cureent month plus 1. Anything beyond that will incure an extra 10% hence the deprecation percentage is taken at 60% instead of 70% hence the difference. The CCs usually also matter.

Thank you. I chose Jan and Mar 2006. That makes it between 7-8 years on arrival this Jul 13, hence reducing duty to 70% bracket.
