Built in the UK not as good as built in Japan

These days it makes no sense to run a diesel. This car will easily hit 40MPG, is comfy has a fair turn of speed and has a great ride.
You cannot feel it change gear and the interior is a nice place to be.
The satnav is pretty good too.
The reverse camera is useless as when its raining its plain blurry.
The biggest problem we have had is the rear tyres were down to the carcuss at 11500 miles. Front tyres both fine.
A 4 wheel alignment has "apparently" solved this problem but neither the dealer not Toyota GB want to contribute towards a defective vehicle

So please, if you do choose to buy, examine the rear tyres.

This car was purchased a few months old with 6500 miles from Toyota Milton Keynes.

They only seem intrested in selling cars, not fixing issues.

The small claims court will be fun in 2014 :-)
