Hey Guys, Live in New Zealand and have purchased a Jap Import 2000 V6 3.0G 8 seater Estmia (will post up photos later), and all I can say is :ohmy:. Used to be one of those ppl who really didn't like them, but with a 3rd child on the way, the old mitsi challanger just wasn't going to cut it.

And I am now glad to have gone with such an awesome vehicle. Will be definitaly trolling these forums alot.

Welcome to the club :welcome:

It is surprising how many people don't like these until they are forced to get one, then immediately fall in love with them :lol:

Any questions, just ask away :winks:

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. You're a lost soul now. It starts with "I'll just try the one". Then it's "Well, another one won't hurt". Before you know it you'll be considering importing one yourself: "You know it makes sense, sweetheart. This one will never break down - ever".
There are cars and cars and ... Estimas. Once they get into your blood you're hooked for life - and there's no known cure :eek: You can recognise the ones who are trying to go 'cold turkey'. They're the ones wandering around at meets apologising for arriving in a different type of car (even if it's a Toyota), and wanting to look at everyone elses Mason alarm, curtains or just peeping in the sliding door. Poor, poor b'staads!

There is an even sadder secondary symptom, I've always leant toward the "Top Gear" view of caravans, but now I find myself seriously considering a purchase as reading about all the meets I'm getting a urge to tow something...... Posted Image
