    Ilan po kayo sa family sir? Difference from jumbo and 9 seater besides sa seating capacity is the rear suspension...LWB is leaf spring while SWB is Coil Springs...Mas comfortable syempre yung coil pero subok sa kargahan yung leaf spring...Kung 2000 model sa 300K, mura sya...make sure the unit is in good condition, local and not upgraded to millenium edition...madaling malaman sa bolt ng tires...

    Upgraded millenium means na pinalitan head and tail lights, grill and rear garnish to look 2000 up model...pero ang mahirap iupgrade is rims...hindi kasya yung rim ng 2000 up model sa 1999 below model...5 x 114.3 yung 1999 below while 5 x 120 yung 2000 up models including GRX...

    Thanks SG for the pictures...

    To TS...Take note of the rim sa first two pictures...pag nakita mo sya sa unit na titignan mo, for sure, 2000 below model yan...Goodluck sa starex hunting! kung sa 300 maganda pa condition at millenium talaga yung unit, good buy na yan!

    check the plate numbers too.. the leters.. if it starts with W then most likely its a local unit.. and if it R or B it could be surplus..
