My major concern is part availability. I don't like to search at junkyards for parts. Japanese spare parts are really expensive.
Japanese parts expensive!!!!!

Try the cost of European parts, astronomical comes to mind!!!!!

Especially anything French, ouch!!!!

Well nothing there that they hasn't been plagerized from another manufacturer. (typical Toyota fashion)
If you want a turbo diesel that is the the best to offer, you will need to look at the kings of diesel technology and turn to the european manufacturers.

Hahahaha, I mentioned it already....

I still remember when I had to pay for a friggin' orange flasher plastic cover for a '86 Toyo Corolla 120US-$.
I mean a piece of plastic, not bigger than your palm of your hand.
