Driving it
What's it like to drive?
A Dream. You have a high seating position so you can see all around you. The seats are really comfy. The RAV feels very "chunky" with reassuring "clunks" when you close your doors. The gearchange is smooth and the 6 speed box makes it effortless to cruise. I adore driving it.
What's it like to park?
Really easy with the acoustic parking sensors we had dealer fitted and the visibility.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
So far so good ;)
What's most practical about your car?
Its spacious, comfortable, you can drop the rear seats for a really good load area which is really useful for someone like me (a courier!).
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Sunroof, the MP3 radio, the rear parking sensors and the glovebox which opens at touch of a button.
