Summary
What does this car say about you?
I feel this car looks smart and modern, its not too big like some MPV's , but it holds an immense amount of gear and family including the ability to carry two kayaks on its roof with no struggle at all! It says I suppose - my life is hectic and I need reliability above everything else!
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
They think it looks smart, family thinks its roomy and comfortable.
Would you buy this car again and why?
YES! This is the 3rd Verso we have had over the years. They are extremely reliable, well built and its great to have the option of the extra 2 seats to carry kids pals, grannies and lots more without needing to to do two runs or have a second car. Also the value for money in comparison to other 7 seaters is excellent.
What are you likely to buy next?
Probably another Toyota, but I would like a RAV 4 one day!

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
It is very easy to drive with great visibility, enhanced with rear view camera when reversing. Very smooth on the road for a diesel and plenty of pull when overtaking.
What's it like to park?
It is shorter than most 7 seater MPV's so it is very easy to park, the reversing camera is a brilliant add on.
