Economy
Value
Great level of equipment and performance for the cash.
Costs
Very high maintenance. Eats tyres, poor consumption. 3000-mile oil changes.

On the road
Driving
Sticks to the road better than an Evo. You give up way before the car!
Performance
Jap Spec 220bhp good on the sprint, but still lacks top-end grunt above 80mph.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Never broken down, never failed MOT, it's a Toyota!
Image
Wide body Carlos Sainz, very rare and not liked by all!
Comfort
Good for driver, bad for rear passengers. Aircon and all electrics.

Standard is poor. Need an aftermarket Cat1 system. Thieves love this car.

Toyota main dealers have been good for servicing, but have trouble getting parts!
