Summary
What does this car say about you?
Bit of a plonker.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
There not impressed.
Would you buy this car again and why?
No, not without intentions to modify it. Its a good solid car, but poor MpG for a modern diesel, the SR is nicer looking than other Auris, but Auris has poor "old man" image.
What are you likely to buy next?
Something faster than the norm with good handling, GT86?

Driving it

Not that quick zero to sixty, but it keeps building speed respectably. fairly planted no hair raising events despite being a boy racer.

Nothing apart from a sensor failure (exhaust related I think) early on.

Nothing its fairly similar to other cars in its class.

Its a bit boring for gadgets, the VSC is a life saver (literally) other than that the pop out cup holders.
