Toyota Rav 4 or Avensis

i had an new avensis for two years - very nice. 1.8 diesel - very quick off the mark. dashboard etc was also really nice - silver effect.

would recommend them if you're in the market.

no experience of rav 4

Me and my wife both have Ravs,hers is the new model. Never had a problem with either. Both are lovely to drive and are suprisingly economical (no different to the carina we had previous). Had all types of Toyota for the last 12 years including a Yaris and never a serious problem with any of them. Obviously with the Rav the car tax (£200) is more expensive, tbh i would recommend any Toyota. Hope this helps.
