Well-maintained 1980 Daihatsu Hijet S38 Super Deluxe kei van with 360cc 2-cycle engine. Five-door, four-seater, 4-speed manual, 2WD, yellow, right-hand drive. 37,000 km actual mileage. Vehicle inspected until March 2027. Exterior fully repainted approximately 10 years ago (original surface had light surface rust but no perforation). Engine overhauled after piston ring failure: cylinders bored 0.5mm, new pistons and rings installed, cylinder head and ports professionally honed. Brake master cylinder and wheel cylinders replaced, new tires and brake linings fitted. Recently serviced with new Yuasa battery (May 2026). Low use since last inspection March 2025. Accessories fitted: ETC, front and rear dashcam. Owner notes: a classic requiring warm-up, hand-crank windows, no air conditioning, two-stroke engine characteristics (white smoke especially when warming, exhaust odor, no engine braking). Seller emphasizes this is an old vehicle requiring patience with parts sourcing and a buyer who understands two-stroke ownership. Included: owner's manual, spare tire. Non-smoker history, no pets.
Exterior very clean; engine runs well. Minor defects noted: rear bumper has impact damage, right sliding door is stiff, passenger sun visor interior is cracked and drooping, interior turn signal lamp does not light (turn signal works). Seller advises professional inspection before use.
