Once again, an owner has jealously guarded not one but three Toyota units for more than 20 years. Today he publishes them but assures that he does not sell them.
It is difficult to explain the status of these three Toyota pick-ups. No one would believe us if we didn’t have an image package to illustrate the note. And it’s really strange to find a vehicle that is more than 20 years old and has never been used.
We know those scrupulous collectors who are able to buy a private car and keep it in a bubble for many years. This, in fact, is not true, but it is not far from a similar action that took place in Argentina.
What brand do they belong to? ToyotaModel? HiluxVersion? SR5, the “top of the range”, Year? Made in 2000. Yes, the three pick-ups from the Japanese manufacturer have been in stock for more than 23 years and are the first generation that began to be produced in Argentina in the late 1990s.
This is how unused Toyota Hilux pickups are found
Thanks to the friends of @retrovintagephotos We once again come across a Toyota Hilux, although now it is not just one but three units. That is, there are three 0 km pick-ups from the year 2000 that are in the dealership. @antelo.automores from Comodoro Rivadavia, Chubut, Argentina.
The bad news for collectors or enthusiasts of the pick-up is that its owner does not intend to sell them, so he has chosen to only show the Hilux in immaculate condition through his networks, which has caused quite a stir, especially inside of groups where they venerate “Toyota.”
And it’s not every day that you come across a discovery like this. The trucks are not even patented and for this reason we believe that they have always been hidden in a sales room or in a locked warehouse without anyone claiming them.
One of the details that catches our attention the most, beyond the fact that there are three units present the same conditionswe can say that inside them they can be preserved up to protective plastics on the upholstery and other elements such as the gear lever.
It is worth mentioning that the three units correspond to the same version: SR54×4, That is to say, the best-equipped Toyota Hilux you could buy at the time. The engine of these pickups is modest 2.8 diesel without turbo developing 78 HPalthough the Hilux would soon finally incorporate a more powerful engine, paying off an outstanding debt since its debut.
However, the strong point of the first Hilux was not exactly power, but reliability and mechanical nobility, added to unrivaled robustness and off-road capability. It was this first series based in Zárate that helped position Toyota as the ideal working tool for the country man, an essence it retains even today, 27 years after its industrial launch.
At the moment the circumstances that led these Toyota Hiluxes to this end are unknown. It remains to be seen what their fate will be and whether the current owner will finally make the decision to sell them, even if from now on it is clear that their price will be high, especially considering that the used ones we can find for sale have more than 200,000 kilometers on the odometer are not exactly cheap.
