Toyota Yaris Hatchback (2006 - 2011) 1.33 VVT-i T Spirit Nav (6speed) 5d (2011/11) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

I appreciate quality. When I insert the ignition key and turn it I expect the car to start. That's exactly what this one does.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

I don't know or care. I bought it to suit me not them.

Would you buy this car again and why?

A totally unashamed YES! Highly recommended.

What are you likely to buy next?

Either another T Spirit, the new automatic or better yet the new hybrid.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchised

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£8,500

When did you buy the car?

November 2013

Did you get a good deal and why?

Yes I got a very good deal.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

I absolutely love this car and can't speak highly enough about it. I'd recommend it to anyone. The one downside is that there's not enough room here to tell you all I want to. Just a few words. Fantastic, brilliant, superb engineering. Bulletproof.

What was the dealer like?

Polite, courteous, knew what he was on about. I even got tea and cake!

What's it like to drive?

So smooth, quiet, refined and comfortable. All controls are where I want them.

What's it like to park?

With the rear sensors, parking is a doddle. Also because it's a small hatch, I can get into most places quirte easily.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Up to now not one thing. It has completely fulfilled my expectations.

What's most practical about your car?

Reliability, safety, build quality, space and low running costs.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

I don't really have one thing that I favour above anything else. If I was pushed I'd say probably the start/stop.
