At ReDriven, we’ll be taking you through the pros and cons of a huge range of used cars to see how well they’re going now that they’re a few years old, have thousands of kilometres on the clock, and are coming toward the end of their warranty, or maybe don’t have one at all.

Plus, thanks to our resident mechanic, Jim, you’ll find out what commonly goes wrong with them and what might need to be fixed.

Most importantly, we want to make ReDriven a voice for the most in-the-know used car experts there are...you guys.. See, you’re the ones that actually buy, live with, love and sometimes unfortunately hate the cars we’ll be reviewing.

So we want to hear your thoughts. Hit us up in the comments, or on Instagram and Facebook.

We’d love nothing more than for you to give us as much feedback as possible, so we can make this channel the best it can be.

I am a Japanese viewer.
It's nice to see familiar cars from my country being reviewed in foreign countries.
Alphard sells better than Vellfire in Japan. Many young people seem to prefer the luxury of the front face.
By the way, Japan's Alphard has two luxury grades, "Executive Lounge" and "Royal Lounge" in addition to the regular model.
Equivalent to Lexus LM. Prices start at 8 million yen and 15 million yen, respectively. These cars are not used by ordinary people, but are often used by high-income people such as politicians and celebrities.
On a different note, Toyota sells smaller versions of the Alphard in Japan called the Voxy and Noah. This one is cheaper, so if you're looking for a 7 seater family van, this is the one for you.
If you go camping, consider the Mitsubishi Delica D5.

For those who’ve never been in one, the Vellfire is amazing!

i am from russia, i bought from japan vellfire 2020 with low mileage 9000km. We have two children, a dog. We sold the McRedes GLE Coupe and now we want comfort, lots of space. Mercedes breaks down after 100,000 km very often and its repair is expensive. 😊😊😊

Mate it would awesome if you did a whole segment on grey imports.

Been a Vellfire Welcab owner for over 10 years now... The only regret I have owning it, is the fact that ever since being driven or driving in our Vellfire, my family members & I find it difficult to ride in any other non-MPV vehicles 😅... We've been spoilt by the sheer versatility, comfort & luxury our Vellfire offers us 🥰... Our humble Vellfire has been our ever reliable daily, school run, holiday treats, market visits, recreational outings, the occasional guest hosting or ceremonies ride and even international border crossing transportation (I've driven it into Singapore & Thailand)... To date I've clocked almost 300,000km on it and other than normal wear & tear of mechanical parts and components, the 2GR-FE has been reliable, loyal and relatively frugal 🤲

Here in the Philippines, Alphard is considered as Luxury van.. Take note also the high end version of this Alphard - Lexus LM

When i test drove one, my friend’s Alphard, i traded my 2018 Range rover in for it, that’s genuinely how impressed i was with the quality and comfort! It’s true that this car is captivating to the max

Over half the cars that come into New Zealand are grey imports. Just about all dealers are certified importers. My parents have had 5 imports over the years. They feel better built and are often in much better condition for the mileage.
Keep it up ReDriven!

I HAVE A 2014 VILLFIRE AND HAPPILY DRIVING FOR 10 YEARS AT 79.

Given up on hopes and dreams? Driving an Alphard/Vellfire is a status symbol in Indonesia because its everybody's hope and dream to own one here...

@Tedkelvin 3 years ago

Alphard/vellfire are pound for pound the best toyotas ever made.

@santochow 3 years ago

I used to laugh at why people would want a car like this, unless you have a driver. Then I have 2 kids and I bought one because I need the space. Best decision ever. It’s super comfortable, reasonable power, reasonable fuel cons, kids love them. If you’re a dad or a mom, test drive these, you won’t look back.

the yakuza love them in black and the swivelling captains chairs are as close to the royal treatment as you can get

@longmutalibzainal8866 3 years ago (edited)

I own a 2018 Toyota Alphard and 2018 Volvo XC90. Both can carry 7 pax but trust me for any road trip, the Toyota wins all the time (comfort & luggage carrying capacity even with the 3rd row up!). The kids love it. Even with its massive size, the wife love to drive it daily as well over the Volvo (especially with the ability to control the rear passenger sliding doors). If you live in an area where the roads are reasonable and don’t need to go off road activities, the Toyota is a recommended choice! Plus point, the service and parts are cheap.

I used to make fun of Alphards until I drove one. They're outstanding, and the higher grades are better still..

I've just got back from Vietnam. I went from Hue to Da Nang in a Toyota Fortuna with 720,000km on the odometer. The driver said he does three return trips from Hue to Da Nang every day (700km per day), 4,900km every week.

@danmccarthy4700 3 years ago

I would absolutely buy one of these but can't because of our stupid 25 year import rule and because the US is so obsessed with SUVs and crossovers that manufacturers are afraid to sell anything else here.

In Singapore, the top 1% buys a Lambo and a Vellfire. One to show off, one for comfort. It cost half a million to get a Vellfire here in SG, the same amount to get a house.
