Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
The car has not been an exaple of Toyota reliability.It ahs done 70,000 miles and is now on it's 3rd Turbo.It has been serviced by the main dealer from new regularly.It has also had a new catalytic converter as well.This means that our running costs per year have been astronomical.When the latest turbo went after 14 months the dealer said it was only guaranteed for a year; this is a part that costs thousands not a toaster. When it goes it goes well, but don't buy one unless you have pots of money.
