In the world of commercial vehicles, there are workhorses, and then there are legends. For decades in Australia, one name has stood above all others, earning a reputation for bulletproof reliability that is simply unmatched: the Toyota Hiace.
It’s the van that has built businesses, delivered millions of parcels, and carried countless tradespeople and their tools to job sites across Perth and beyond. It’s the trusted partner you see at 5 AM loading up at the markets and the dependable carrier navigating the city late at night. For tradies, couriers, fleet managers, and even the new generation of #VanLife adventurers, the Hiace isn’t just a vehicle; it’s an indispensable tool. Its ability to withstand incredible punishment and keep going is the stuff of folklore.
Because of this legendary status, keeping a Hiace on the road is a top priority. But when a part finally does give way, sourcing a replacement can be a challenge. Dealership prices for new parts can be astronomical, and finding a quality second-hand component you can trust is paramount.
At WA Auto Parts, we understand the deep connection owners have with these incredible vans. We know that when you need a part, you need it to be genuine, reliable, and affordable. That’s why we are incredibly excited to make a major announcement for the Hiace community in Western Australia.
We have just secured a white 2013 Toyota Hiace LWB van, and our team of Toyota commercial specialists is beginning the professional dismantling process. This is a golden opportunity to acquire genuine, tested, and high-quality parts to keep your own legend running perfectly.
