The Previa has build dates of early 1990; but Toyota recognizes them as MY 1991. I have found April 1990 NA spec Previa. -- Last edit: 2024-12-21 00:56:03

VIN codes give some artificial data which if we choose to follow blindly corrupts the accuracy of the database. This is a 2022 vehicle in legal terms - if you owned it and advertised it as a 2023, you'd be breaching the law - in UK the Trade Descriptions Act. Manufacturers may control VIN coding and alleged model years, but they don't control reality.
