Used Toyota Vellfire
The Toyota Vellfire takes the people carrier and adds a luxury twist. First launched in 2008 as the Alphard's premium sibling, it reached the UK mainly as a Japanese import. Families and professional drivers prize it for its vast cabin, easy-access sliding doors and the kind of comfort that turns long trips into laid-back journeys. Multi-zone climate control, plush seats and generous safety kit come as standard, making it far more than just a way to get from A to B. Spanning two principal generations (2008 to 2015; 2015 to 2023), the Vellfire has kept refining drive comfort, passenger space and interior polish. Compared with rivals like the VW Caravelle or Ford Tourneo Custom, the Vellfire leans into quiet cruising and lounge-like interiors. Petrol and hybrid versions are available, with hybrids offering welcome savings on fuel. While it's not the cheapest to run, Toyota's durability and the Vellfire's VIP feel make it a standout choice for anyone who values comfort as much as practicality.
