Hahahaha...actually done already :top:

its actually pretty good with a lot of torque (close to 400! )
rear wheel drive keeps it quite tight around looping corners for something so big and its packed with goodies so its quite good value !

Big and ugly van??? I beg to differ
there are a lot more fuglier vehicles out there and if the starex is a van then so are the 'all-farts' :bandit:

I think it's value for money. 11 seater, frugal diesel engine. Yes, for that kind of size diesel is the way to go. Top speed is a respectable 180km/hr.

Unfortunately the rear seats in the Starex only come configured with 2 point lap belts and not the normal 3 point belts, so cannot secure child seats. What were they thinking? I read somewhere that the Starex in other markets come specced with 3 pt belts. Such a shame as it looks decent and definitely VFM.

 

[Ken E.]

Agreed, E28D................that's the downside of the starex.....less safety in the rear.
I think that was a local call......as i understand it, the leathers are locally installed.
Cheers! :wink:

[ramsing]

[nazrie]

what's the selling price lah?

 

[Ken E.]

Hi Ken E...any update/review?....kinda interested....:love:

The starex now comes with some additions such as body kit, new grille which looks quite garang now..... ggrrrr feel like screwing the salesman for not letting me know !
Anyway, truly happy so far except maybe after sales service should be better:102:

Check this out, so far a lot of happy buyers even shooting down the all-farts....:wink:

Here you will also see the latest price....a pix of the face-lifted unit and even addresses Ramsing's question on the removal of seats.

In a nutshell............if you're thinking of a re-cond all-fart....check the starex out,
it :rock:

Cheers!

[ramsing]

[zoakies]

I will got for Starex anytime then those Japo El-Grand or Alphard.

The new facelift looks very fierce and nice.

Yup, agreed with Ken E. The Starex is a looker. Well, looks are relative, and I suppose its all in the eyes of the beholder. But I must say, the Grand Starex does look imposing. It's a MPV right? Saw one with chrome rims and black paint, and I must say, it looks awesome!

Can't imagine me saying that about MPVs, but there you go, a MPV that actually looks cool. :top:
