Toyota Picnic 2.0i GLS 5d (SR) (7 Seat) (1999/T) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
It came with ABS, air-con and 2 airbags standard. At the time of buying this car, this was state-of-the-art stuff.
Costs
Maintenance costs are (still) low although I fear that there are some minor issues coming up (rattling noises in the motor compartment).
-
On the road
Driving
Handles very well, both on the highway and in the city.
Performance
I use it to tow a 1400-kgs caravan, no problems at all (cruising in 5th gear with 90 kms/hr). will beat most other cars at traffic lights!

Living with it
Reliability
No major problems yet. Only problem is some wear and tear on the interior finish I should have been more careful.
Image
Not a car Top Gear would get excited about. But then, does that matter?
Comfort
Good for those in front: OK for those in the 2nd row so-so for those in third. Unfortunately, my children are growing up and need more room time for a Previa?

Security and Service
Security
4 stars euro-NCAP, that says it all, very good given its age, many current MPVs do not do better (or even far worse e.g., voyager and carnival).
