The Appeal

If you’ve got lots of family and friends to move about, of course you could buy a van-based MPV from Ford or Volkswagen. But when you could have this Alphard would you really want to? Distinctive design and as luxurious as any limousine, this V6 six-seater makes a strong argument for itself.

As an MZ G Edition 2005 Alphard, this 3L V6 is the top-specification model with the later 5spd automatic gearbox. It has covered just 71,000 miles from new, which we’re told is supported by the history file. It is said to have been very well maintained, including a recent engine and gearbox service. The cambelt was replaced at 55,000 miles when it arrived in the UK in 2021. The vendor acquired it a few days after it was first UK registered.

Finished in Pearl White with an airy light beige interior, it presents really well, helped by recently refurbished diamond-cut alloys. The specification is equally impressive and includes sunroof, blinds and cruise control.

Whether you need a multi-seater van for practical reasons, or you just like a lot of space, this very tidy Alphard is tempting. It comes with length MOT to May 2027 with no advisories.

The vendor says:

“This here represents an awful lot of quirky, comfortable and dependable transport for reasonable money.”
