This is a great car that was originally purchased by my father in 1989.  Last year he decided to take the plunge and get a new car (only took him 24 years) and he gave this car to me. I used it traveling to work and have never had any issues with it.  It runs great, but I'm thinking it may be time soon for a muffler.  As the main driver, I have not witnessed or observed any mechanical problems with this vehicle (aside from the mentioned muffler). The car runs pretty smoothly and I've enjoyed having it, but I decided to upgrade to a new vehicle and now I have no use for this one.  With my dad's blessing, he's letting me sell it to help offset the cost of my new vehicle. 

I'm including pictures so you can have a good look at what you're bidding on.  I've also pictured the odometer, because it's pretty incredible that the mileage is this low for a car of 25 years.  It passed it's final emissions testing when the registration was renewed, and I was told that (in Washington State) no further emissions tests would be required because the vehicle is now considered a "classic." 

My father takes great care of all of his vehicles, and he's maintained the vehicle pretty well.  The care is dent free because it's been in zero accidents and the paint on it is in fair shape, showing some age and a few rough areas. I took pictures of all four sides, so you can magnify them if needed. The windows look pretty good for their age, but the driver's side window has some minor scratches (looks like a bad snow scraper got it one year.) This car comes from a smoke free environment (no one in my family smokes.) This vehicle is being sold "as is."  I have a 100% rating on Ebay and that includes having sold one other vehicle in the past to a very satisfied seller.

I'd prefer to sell locally, but if you're willing to arrange all shipping, you are more than welcome to have it shipped to your location. I've never shipped a vehicle, so I'd prefer the buyer to make all arrangements.  I have the Vehicle Certificate of Title that I will sign once the sale is complete. The title is clean and clear and has my name registered as the owner. 

If you have any specific questions, I'll attempt to answer them. Honestly, I know little about this particular model, so I'm hoping pictures say a 1000 words or more.

Toyota to recall 185k cars globally, including Yaris

Thu, 04 Jul 2013

Toyota has announced it is recalling a total of 185,000 vehicles worldwide for a power steering issue. Yaris and (overseas) Vitz models built between November 2010 and March 2012 could suffer a short circuit in their power steering control module if water gets inside. Should that happen, the power steering could fail, increasing effort when turning. The recall also includes the Verso-S and Ractis built from August 2010 to August 2011. The recall covers 130,000 vehicles in Japan and around 22,450 in Europe.
Only 74 units are being recalled in the United States.
Toyota says if the fault occurs, the vehicle will display the Electronic Power Steering warning light on the dash and a buzzer will sound. The automaker will alert owners by mail and dealers will replace the power steering control module free of charge. You can read the quick press release on the recall below for more information.

Tesla pulling plug on Toyota RAV4 EV battery deal

Mon, 12 May 2014

The future of the Toyota RAV4 EV appears to be in doubt. Tesla supplies the EVs battery packs, and it says that production ends later this year.
"Toyota is expected to end the current RAV4 EV model this year," Tesla said in its quarterly financial filing obtained by Bloomberg. "Our production activities under this program are expected to end in 2014," the company said.
This timeline fits closely with the original production plans for the RAV4 EV. When the $100-million project was first announced, Tesla said that it expected to supply battery packs for the vehicle from 2012 to 2014. Building components for the Japanese automaker continues to bring in money, though. In the company's Q1 2014 letter to shareholders, it said: "Automotive revenue included $15 million of Toyota powertrain sales." According to Bloomberg, Toyota has sold just 1,594 RAV4 EV models from 2012 through April 2014. Initially, the business had estimated that it would sell 2,600 units of the electrified crossover.
