Hunt for Crown

[tintin1]

I am seriously looking for Toyota Crown from 1990-1998 models.

Upto 1994 models, they have Frames (chasis) & body change is possible.

But from 1995 onwards, Crowns came with fixed body.

I am ok with both models, but engine should be min. 2.4L or 2.5L in gasoline. 3.0L would be an ideal.

But in Diesel, there should be 2.4L or 2.5L with Turbo or 2.8L minimum if without turbo.

Body change models are not an issue for me as long as the documents are clean.

If someone is selling, then plz contact.

[tintin1]

Frankly its very rare to find a good condition
vehicle from the internet adds.

Because all those vehicles who are up for
sales, either have some serious mechanical or electrical issues. Or have some
garr barr somewhere in the documents.

Its somehow OK to deal with mechanical or
electrical issues for such vehicles, because I’ve kept Crown in past for 3
years and know how to handle its different mechanical issues.

So my first priority will go for clean documents

Recently I see an add for 90s model of Crown
and contacted the owner.

The car was looking in good nick. So I decided
to go & see by myself.

Within 10 minutes of inspection (it was after
sunset), I found more than dozen mechanical/electrical issues. Most of them
were visible and some of them were hidden.

Physically/Generally the condition of vehicle
was acceptable. So I made a good offer to him, but I guess it was lower than
his expectations.

Hence couldn’t finalize that deal

[tintin1]

Sir Sir Sir.

So nice of you and honor is all mine to have
you in this thread

Frankly, these days my basement become flat by using
Uber/Careem everyday to see the cars after checking their adds on internet

Wish me luck

[suhaibayaz]

Apki basement bohat nazuk hai...

Please consider Mark X 3000.

90s cars look very dated and old now.

[tintin1]

Sir, that will go out of budget.

And once you know that you have parked your
Mark X 3000G outside in street, believe me I won’t be able to sleep for a split
second or blink literally.

If 80s LC or Early 90s model Crown is Parked
outside in street, I bet you can literally snore high while sleeping. Because
you know people don’t pay a look at such old badass vehicles

[tintin1]

Is it OK to mount this Flag Pole on the regular
sedans ?

I bet it will be.

But can any civilian drive his car with a metallic
Flag of PK (and attached to this Pole like High rank officials) ?

Or this flag is only allowed to high ranked
officials?

Plz help me on this thread guys: (I would appreciate your inputs on the thread please)

[tintin1]

Jee Awais sb. thank you.

Actually i was the one who saw this car last evening near Liberty.
i had very detailed checking and TBH i don't want to share my observations here about this vehicle

however i made counter offer to him but he said its low.
so.... this deal couldn't be finalize

and i also know your friend has great love for Mark-II as well

[owais8668]

As you in market for car, so posting a pic was a reason that you might have checked this one.

The owner is a respectable friend and informative person.
Khair, no problem.

My uncle have a 2003 crown, 2000cc.
But its here in Nowshera.

[Marschall]

No issue, but once u get caught there is a law and justice served on the road by our police might hurt you for a long time

[tintin1]

This is why I asked actually.

That is it only allowed for high officials or civilian
can also use it?

If only high officials, then there must be some
special format of this flag. I guess its totally Green and without white color.

[tintin1]

There was an add for Crown in Lahore.

It was White color with 2JZ engine.

Owner has posted more than 20 pictures in two
different posts.

So I went to see the car.

After seeing actually, I realized that posted
pictures were like 2~3 years old. While actual condition of Car was literally
pathetic.

And owner was very proud like he owns this vehicle
since 2 centuries and said he cannot reduce a cent from the price. And I gave
them smile with three words “All the best”

[dayrider]

Best of luck

[UAHMAD]

Please concentrate on car's condition rather than the flag pole.

Best of luck with your hunt. I shall also confirm if I come across any such car in good condition.

Checking on a Custom's auction is another option.

[tintin1]

Well I guess two things are important when finding 2nd hand vehicle.

One is Luck/Kismat
Other is Patience

Let’s see at which vehicle my hunt will end up and after that a new journey of repairs will start again
