Problems and Ownership
Problems
Engine
Flywheel falls apart at 100k miles. Common fault I now know. Over £1000 to put right, so watch out!
Other
Only let down by that flywheel. Toyota have now upgraded the part, so it must be causing problems.
Ownership
Did you buy the car new?
Used
Would you buy the same model again?
Yes
Did you buy from the same manufacturer again?
Yes
