Hey Jay, figured you'd appreciate this being a Toyota guy. Scored an 03 Rav a few months ago with a 5 spd manual! They sold it for scrap but I saved her for a runaround whip. New fuel tank and a valve cover gasket and she's been a fun little car!
Jay, I have a white with blue interior 1999 Rav4 with 98K miles. Thats right, 98,000 miles. factory Toyota CD changer in the dash and a 5 speed. It still looks brand new inside. Those little things are fun!
3:40 about the straps on the back seats; to expand the rear cargo area, you fold the rear seats forward (after removing the headrests), lift the seats up from the rear and push them forward. The straps have a hook at the end which goes into a loop to hold the seats in place and keep them from falling down.
Perfect car for a young family.....of drug addicts!......... Take it to the park...the mountains.....the lake.....the alley behind the "Super 8".....the back lot of Joe's Bar.......the abandoned rail yard.......such family memories!!!
Apparently... they were smoking some of that left hand cigarette and someone asked them to crack the window, not past the crack! You just never know what turns up when you buy something used.
I just purchased a 2015 and its an awd and its a very reliable slick lil unit. It floods on my property, and drives right on thru with no problem. And gas mileage is great. And it only has 72 on the clock. I expect to get at least 300.000 miles or better before I trade up. And they do hold their value.
I wouldn't discredit the 5th gen though; my 2019 RAV4 Adventure's AWD system has proved its mettle on and off the road time and time again, though I'd love to own a 1st gen RAV4 as a project car!
@@kyukyoku_ yeah I still don't mind the newer gens, and they're still fairly capable, it's just they look like all the other compacts/crossovers, and the removal of the full size spare kinda took a hit on the name imo
@@Bobby-cm7vu I suppose it's all in the name of ergonomics, comfort, and technology. I didn't like the standard look of the 5th gen with its Scion-esque grill design, but once I saw the front end of Adventure model, I instantly fell in love with it. Kinda see it as a mini Tacoma in a sense, haha!
Bobby I think you are a little mistaken. The 5th Gen has the most ground clearance, towing ability, off-road ability, etc. It’s a true SUV. I agree that the 4th Gen is trash. I love my 5th Gen RAV4 AWD.
@3:52 those straps are for the seats when reclined forward. They keep the seats folded and strapped. There should be a ring behind the driver and passenger seat to latch onto.
Pretty clean old RAV4! (except for the heroin paraphernalia) I would not mind owning it after a good cleaning, to use as a third vehicle to drive around town.
Ouch😬 BIOHAZARD! A word of caution, Jay. Since the former owners weren't so forthcoming about the reason they were "giving it up" perhaps it was due to some kind of illegal activity. You just never know. I might contact the police on this just to be sure. That's scary stuff finding that in there.
Ya as a former detailer needles are probably the most scary thing that you can find. Definitely don’t be reaching around under the seats or storage compartments in that thing
Our fire departments give out free sharps containers; no questions asked. They will then take them back when full or partially full. As I recall. repo's are often driven by "diabetics"
If that CD is the parental advisory version that's a good find that is a nice vehicle for the year. just need a more up to date radio and maybe speakers and your potentially good for 100k with basic maintenance
my mom has this same car and unfortunately has frame damage and has to be junked (same color to) and we had it for 7 years and only broke down maybe 1-2 times. Going to miss it. Ours had a sunroof.
It might be just my opinion but, these to me do not have enough power, believe me I tester of a 2018 RAV4 with a family member and we discovered this! We ended up with a Honda CRV just for the power. But I still love my Toyotas though!
Oh the video is focused around the RAV4? *proceeds to take a look at the background vehicles* Haha jkjk. But I dunno if I've ever seen one or not, probably have but not too sure
My neighbor had one of these before she blew the motor out on it from lack of maintenance. Now she has a jeep.... Go figure. Ball chiller vent is a plus
Like you said, "You don't know, I don't know." Times are harder for some people than others...I'm not excusing the needles, I'm just saying. It is a nice enough car, though..🤷♂️
That’s a scary moment when those needles and spoon popped up I was like wow. You sure they just gave it up lol
😂
Apparently, the RAV4 is the ride of choice for upstate heroin addicts...
Yeah diabetic needles yeah....
I've never been into illegal drugs so why is there a spoon? Da freaking hell 😂

"We'll get those needles outta the back..." - congrats on the new slogan for your business!!
Thank you! lol
The needles explain why a 23 year old car is repoed.
A better question is what bank was willing to finance a 23 year old car?
@@madmatt2024 My guess is a title loan.
@@EternalyRandom Yes, usually or buy here pay here.
Damn the luck. They only had 3 payments left!
@@madmatt2024 meth heads lol it’s in better hands now though
Discovering those needles and the spoon was the most comedic shit 😂
Best sales pitch I’ve ever heard “she’s clean, runs good, cold air.....we’ll get those needles out of the back”
What Jay Smart found: 2 syringes and a spoon
What the detailers found: $30,000 worth of heroin hidden under the floorboards
They could make alot of money off it
That thing is clean as hell! It's a miracle to see one at all around where I live, let alone one this nice looking.
Just bought a 99 Rav with 277 thousand miles on it. Runs like a sewing machine. ❤️ it.
Toyota RAV4 those rides are so reliable and easy to fix You got yourself another great car
Hey Jay it's nice that you see one of them and the headlights aren't all fogged up.
A lot of the first gen RAV4 come with glass headlights instead of the cheap plastic ones that tend to fog up.
98-00 models
The previous owner just might have been , WELL FOGGED UP . Just a thought . .
Tidy little runaround for someone , don't think spoons come with diabetic meds , just a hunch . Ball chiller vent 😂😂😂 . Priceless quote that jay . . Keep up the good work and content . . More old iron out there to be found . More classics . .
That spoon was what made em diabetic 😅
I have a 1997 Rav4 L & I love it. Got it for $750 and 2 yrs later still running strong
Not everyday you see a first gen rav4! Shes clean too! Love the interior design
Cars clean, pervious owner was not lol

My jaw dropped when he opened the back compartment 😳
Can you imagine the criminal who tints their 1998 Toyota that dark AND gets it repoed?
Remember that those seats can fold into a bed... That might explain the tinted windows lol
More than 200,000 miles and starts right up like it's new. What a great vehicle. I'd buy it.
Always sad to see a young man stroke out like that. All the best to you and your neurologist
What a clean little jewel you found, it needs a good home!
I love the seat designs for the XA10's.
I want one so badly

Haven’t seen one of these in a long time! Good memories
And the seats while dirty are super cool!

Almost $19,000 for that when new , even then a good buy because Toyota knows how to make loyal repeat customers with quality and dependability.

Imagine getting your 1998 rav4 repossessed in 2021
That does not bode well for maintenance costs..
I have 2010 Rav 4 love it can't beat Toyota love your Videos Always great time
Nice Rav 4 hope it goes to a good home
That's some dusty gold right there. It will be probably sell before you can hit the submit listing button.
Love the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gen rav4s. Actually sick little SUVs with some capability l, and not just a crossover like the 4th gen and up.

You know you're hurting when you have a 1998 anything repoed
Ya as a former detailer needles are probably the most scary thing that you can find. Definitely don’t be reaching around under the seats or storage compartments in that thing
Dude....I'm dead. Always enjoy your videos but this one with the Hero needles and spoon 😂😂😂 I think I would've had the same response
That thing is cleaner underneath then my 2011 corolla… I hate the salt belt at times 😂
I have a 1997 with 186k miles now, a year ago I got it at 149k stilling running like a champ because I maintenance it ofc.
Looking pretty good for 203k
Can't make payments on a 98 Rav4? Oh, that's a keeper there.
I had a 99 for 5 months before I rolled it my favorite car I've owned
“Can’t safari without some good ol her-Ron”
Love the wheel base of 1st gen Rav
In jesus name one gd day I'll own one like this...so in love with rav4!!!!!!!
I'm sure the cops have never heard "those aren't mine, I just bought this car".
Scary thing is what if you actually did buy a car and had no idea? You’d be fucked.
@@Sci-Mon1 That's my point and there is no "actually" about it. Jay DID buy a car and had no idea.
This is why you never agree to a search, especially if you are driving a rental, someone else’s car, or a used car.
Wow I remember a few months ago you had like 25k subs
Be rude not to comment
Very clean Mrk 1 Rav 4 there Jay.
Right motor. This will sell quick
Hahaha loved your reaction at the needles haha
awesome video Jay Smart
Love this generation of Rav 4s back before they were made into the luxury crossovers that cost way too much
Good little knock about suvs back then !
@@MXguy95 yea sir funny thing is now I been seeing a lot of them on the road lol
I have a 1997 model that's about to turn 206k miles & I love it! Starts right up 😁
Loved the raw footage. How the heck does one safely dispose of a needle? Maybe the sheriff's department has somewhere you can drop it off?
Extremely popular in Ireland
The Hybrid's are big sellers
Nice looking old Toy👍😉...
Love it You Said this one GOING TO Detail 😁
I love this car and I want it right away

The Rav4 before Toyota loaded it up like a GX470. (and cost almost as much)
what the hell is a lexus rx470
@@Noah-M-P he might be referring to the RX 350, though the RX 470 exists as a computer graphics card, lol!

Last year when I was looking for a car, every one of these I looked at frame rot so I ended up getting my 2000 Sentra. Damn it.
my mom has this same car and unfortunately has frame damage and has to be junked (same color to) and we had it for 7 years and only broke down maybe 1-2 times. Going to miss it. Ours had a sunroof.

I actually have a 98 RAV4 the last two years have been putting tons of money

These things are damn near indestructible. Honda CR-V without the CR-V problems.
Just saw one of these on the road this morning.
Yup they were diabetic needles with a spoon😂.
Beautiful rav4! Damn!
Liked, Have a Great week
Ur toyota videos seem to do pretty good
Oh the video is focused around the RAV4? *proceeds to take a look at the background vehicles* Haha jkjk. But I dunno if I've ever seen one or not, probably have but not too sure
Those where the best along with the CRV of the same year
I love it!.. Angola (luanda)🎉
Bro, AWD Rav4 still go for a lot for its age.
Man I hate those aftermarket alarms systems Jay. Wish there were no such thing as an aftermarket alarm
wish i could find something like that by me would love it
Hey Jay I have one exactly but is missing signals. Can u help but chance. Good Video 📹 👍🏾
Hope you do another video on this Rav4 minus those needles & spoon 😱
The commentary in this video was fuckin hilarious LOL
Love these vids man
I like the CRV better, but nice!
At least we know it was unedited
they really have the camry motor in this generation? I’d consider buying one! Even with 200k and being up north id need the 4wd lol
Yup, they share the 4 cylinder engines with the camrys from the same era! Great compact SUVs!
How many miles does it have and how much do you want for it cuz yes I do want a RAV4
My neighbor had one of these before she blew the motor out on it from lack of maintenance. Now she has a jeep.... Go figure. Ball chiller vent is a plus
Did I spy a Cordoba in the back? My aunt has one in a barn in black with white leather! May have spelled that wrong! I was born in 1980!
No thats a Chrysler 300!
4:00 did not expect THAT to be in a car in that nice a condition
It happens
I can't remember the last time I LOL'd at seeing something like that OMG
Hey it happens man XD never know what your going to find in these cars
I would like to own it
You know you're down bad when you decide to stop making payments on your 23 year old car. Lucky for the car to escape though
Like you said, "You don't know, I don't know." Times are harder for some people than others...I'm not excusing the needles, I'm just saying. It is a nice enough car, though..🤷♂️
How much do you want for it?
