Seven seats, a V6, and a compliance date from 2024. The 2015 Toyota Vellfire GGH30W is the kind of people mover that makes you wonder why anyone settles for a crossover.

The Vellfire arrived in Australia as a grey import -- which means it was built for a market that takes luxury vans very seriously. Step inside and you understand why Japan keeps these for themselves. The cabin is quiet, wide, and unhurried, with sliding doors that open onto proper legroom for every row. This is how seven people should travel.

Under the bonnet sits a 3.5-litre V6 paired with a smooth 6-speed automatic. It pulls cleanly whether you're loading school bags into the third row or merging onto the freeway. Front-wheel drive keeps it planted without the weight penalty of an AWD system you rarely need in Melbourne.

At 145,000 km, the Vellfire is right in its stride. These engines are built to go well beyond that, and with a compliance date of July 2024, you're buying a car that has already cleared every modern Australian roadworthy hurdle.

White exterior, freshly complied, priced at $26,000 -- in Nunawading, not far from Melbourne's eastern suburbs, with open 7 days viewing by appointment.

They say the best family car is one where everyone fits and nobody argues about the temperature. This one has three rows and a V6. You're halfway there already.
