Default First ever Toyota

Hey everyone! Well I've owned many different cars over the years, but oddly never a Toyota. That all changed yesterday when I was practically given a 1999 Camry Conquest V6 from an elderly neighbour who doesn't drive anymore and is moving into a retirement home.

They have owned the car since new, full Toyota service history, 130k klm's on the odo, always kept undercover, and has been babied it's whole life. It's a pretty basic car, with manual windows, but it's got airconditioning, tinted windows, security system, new battery, and a towbar. It goes without saying that it's the obligatory "old-person's red" and has steel wheels with hubcaps, so it's the ultimate sleeper, haha!

Asides from a full service and all fluids changed, it needs a good detail, there's a few minor scuffs on the paint in a couple of places so will get them seen to, book it in for a cut-n-polish, and that's really all it needs. I'll also be fitting a good quality sound system in the near future. The intention is to keep it immaculate and drive it once in a while.

I look forward to finding more information about these cars here on the forum!

Great find!

The 1999 is one of the best years of Camry. If you maintain the car it should easily last 400km.

Now that you say it, the red does look "old person red."

Welcome to the club. I've got a 1999 Vienta V6. Absolutely love the car. Just something about the body shape that appeals to me.
