Hunt for oldest Philippine-made Toyota to end on April 14

TopGear.com.ph Philippine Car News - Hunt for oldest locally-produced Toyota to wrap up

If you happen to have an old Toyota sitting in your garage, you just might win a brand-new Innova from Toyota Motor Philippines.

In celebration of its 500,000th production milestone, TMP is searching for the earliest Philippine-made Toyota vehicle since the Japanese carmaker started its local production in 1989.

To qualify, the vehicle must be in running condition and its engine, body and chassis must be original and has not been modified or tampered. TMP adds that its Classic Toyota Hunt is open to the current owners of any locally produced Toyota vehicle by TMP, which includes the Corolla (1989 to 2007), the Corona (1991 to 1998), the Crown (1989 to 1998), the Camry (1999 to 2006), the LiteAce (1989 to 1998), the Tamaraw and the Revo (1991 to 2004), the Innova (2004 to present), and the Vios (2007 to present).

To be eligible to win the Innova, interested participants must completely fill up an entry form at their nearest Toyota dealer and drop it at the designated drop box together with a copy of their valid ID and a photocopy of their entry vehicle's certification of registration and official receipt. The deadline for the submission of entry is on April 14 at 5pm.

For more information on the Classic Toyota Hunt, interested participants may contact TMP's Customer Assistance Center at (02) 819-2912 or visit any of the 31 authorized Toyota dealers nationwide and look for the dealership's customer relations officer.

      "TMP adds that its Classic Toyota Hunt is open to the current owners of any locally-produced Toyota vehicle by TMP, which includes..." Pwedeng meron. Kung "any locally-produced" at locally produced yung hiace, pwede naman siguro

        Sadly it's not. It was produced overseas sa Japan or Thailand yata if I'm not mistaken.

    A friend of mine owns a '83 Toyota Corolla Liftback, wonder if that could be considered as an entry? Although I think his was back when toyota crispa was the one handling the sales of toyota vehicles, not TMP.

      Di yan kasama dahil sa Delta Motors pa yan..

      May neighbor ako na may Liteace at Corolla XL(1989) na hanggang ngayon ginagamit pa nila!
         
  • borikyo Apr 12 2012 @ 04:56pm
     
    its either corolla, crown or liteace ang model na pinakaluma....
       
  • Aloha Milkyway Apr 12 2012 @ 05:15pm
     
    I thought the Delta Motors made ones would qualify too :(
       
    • 17Sphynx17 Apr 12 2012 @ 05:35pm
       
      Yeah, I agree. I mean, it is still a genuine Toyota vehicle, even it was under a different distributor. Besides, it is basically supposed to be a competition to show Toyota reliability, so the older the better (as long as with most of the original parts with minimal to no after market modification).

    Kung well-maintained and "parang bago" look ba, pwede? XD
       
  • jojo204200 Apr 12 2012 @ 07:21pm
     
    Classic ba yung ganyang age lang ng cars? 80s' puwede pa.

    Our neighbor owns a Toyota Crown, and I HATE IT.. Kasi lagi ako inuunahan sa parking hahaha but still looks good:)

    I have a cousin who has a 1998 corolla and my aunts husband has a crown (i have no idea what year model it is) do you think both this car has a high chance of winning?
       
    • fortis Apr 13 2012 @ 09:48am
       
      To be honest, no. there are thousands of vehicles produced by Toyota way before 1998. Or probably that is just a typo and you mean 1978?
         
      • jeprockz Apr 13 2012 @ 09:26pm
         
        nope, its 1998.. sad, but there's no harm in trying right? i'm still gonna convince them to enter their old toyota cars.
           
  • iskwakalogz Apr 13 2012 @ 01:17am
     
    ayos yung 1989 na corolla! kahit suntukin m yung body ikaw pa masusugatan sa kunat
       
    • DePendot Apr 13 2012 @ 10:45am
       
      hahaha! tama! yung mga lomang kotse nakakasakay pa kami sa hood nung mga bata. ngayon madanggil mo lang yupi na agad.ahaha!
         
  • Adelbert Apr 13 2012 @ 10:15am
     
    We have a 20-year old corolla, it's still running and in good condition. But I highly doubt that we would win.
       
  • torquebender Apr 13 2012 @ 10:44am
     
    kahit modified na ung corolla? qualified pa rn ba?
       
  • myas110 Apr 13 2012 @ 05:22pm
     
    yung vios from 2003-2007 is made outside the Philippines?
       
    • meganekon Apr 14 2012 @ 07:52pm
       
      Gawang Thailand ang mga iyan!
