This factory produced 2012 Toyota Vellfire Welcab Sloper wheelchair accessible vehicle was inspected for a client at USS Tokyo auction on 12 February 2015 and is known as a “sloper” due to the rear sloping ramp. As part of its operation, the vehicle lowers at the rear so the ramp can gently touch the ground allowing a wheelchair to be easily loaded and securely strapped into the rear. These have been cleverly designed by Toyota with a flat floor and other features to make them an ideal transport option for those with disabilities. Ramp operation is electrically operated from inside the vehicle or with remote control from outside. They come with HID lights, push button start and intelligent key as well as various factory options. This one had dual electric sliding doors, and front and side cameras. Navigation system was aftermarket and overall condition was excellent.
It sold for 2,860,000 YEN FOB. Total price in Australia at that time was approx. $42,200 complied plus tyres and ORC’s (calculated at a rate of 92.6 yen to the dollar).

It is vital when sourcing your vehicle to use an agent that takes the time to physically check each vehicle and looks beyond the auction pictures and report to confirm condition. Some vehicles may have an unpleasant smoke or other odour, rust underneath, or other faults which are impossible to know without inspection.

Geoff,
My Caldina has arrived in great condition with no transport damage so good job by all involved. I spent most of yesterday afternoon looking over and playing with everything in the car. It’s a great car and has lots of high end after market goodies. Thanks for the assistance in buying this car it has been a good experience so far and should be for the rest of the time I own it. I will send thru some updated pics when I’ve given it a bath.
I just wanted to touch base again and let you know the Caldina I bought is terrific and that the compliance went very well and the guys there were very helpful. The car is very smooth and quiet with plenty of grunt for a 2.0L all wheel drive. I average between 500km to 550km on the highway and approximately 400km to 450km around town (that could have a lot to do with my driving style).
Thanks for all your help and knowledge with importing my car I am very happy with how smoothly everything went and am already considering importing my next car when the time comes.
Cheers
Shane
