The four-cylinder engine has a displacement of 2,189 cc. At a wheelbase of 2,790 mm and 1,590 mm wide, the Minicruiser weighs 1,759 kg unladen, with a gross vehicle weight of 2,109 kg.
With a gross vehicle weight of only 2,109 kg, the Minicruiser belongs to the light end of motorhomes, well below the 3.5-tonne threshold for larger motorhome bodies. The gap of only 350 kg between unladen and gross weight shows a very tightly calculated payload, typical of compact Japanese motorhomes of the period.
When buying such a compact and now rare motorhome, the condition of the interior fit-out for damp and rot in wooden parts matters most, as water ingress is one of the most common causes of damage on older motorhome bodies. The condition of the underlying Toyota chassis, particularly rust on the floor pan, should be checked independently of the body, as should the remaining payload given the tight weight margin. The seals around the windows and roof hatches also deserve a close inspection on a vehicle this age, and the condition of the upholstery and interior furniture shows how well it was cared for over the years.
