September 2022 Classics Auction
1979 Daihatsu Taft F50
Registration - CWC 402T
Chassis No. - 54940
M.O.T. - Exempt
Odometer - 84,950
The hard top Taft on offer was first registered in January 1979 and is attractively finished in mid green, trimmed in black vinyl and rides on white-painted steel wheels shod with Marshal Power Guard all-terrain tyres. There are some signs of corrosion, but there is little doubt that this enchanting little workhorse will be putting smiles on faces for many years to come. At some stage the battery has been rehoused where one of the rear seats had been, making this a five rather than six-seat version. Eminently usable and very practical, ‘CWC 402T’ is being sold complete with tow hooks front and rear, a pair of Ring auxiliary driving lights, radio and a selection of invoices and old MOTs. The odometer currently stands at 84,000 miles.
Somewhat similar to the Suzuki Jimny, Daihatsu’s Taft (Tough and Almighty Four-wheel Touring Vehicle) was produced in various forms between 1974 and 1984, predating the better-known Fourtrack by some 10 years. The initial F10 version was only offered with a 1.0-litre petrol engine, but by 1977 it was possible to order one with a much torquier 2.5-litre diesel engine, which was dubbed the F50. The model was offered in soft or hard top guise and with the choice of four or six seats.
