Toyota Yaris Hatchback (2006 - 2011) 1.4 D-4D TR 3d Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
In their own words
Plus points - Toyota reliability; very roomy cabin and flexible boot space with sliding rear seats and hidden storage below the floor; very few rattles and squeaks for a 125,000 mile car; very easy to drive Minus points - fuel economy not as good as I expected from a diesel; "paint" finish (it actually looks like a plastic film) on bumpers and mirrors peeling; insurance is more expensive than other more "sporty" cars eg. Panda 100HP is cheaper to insure. In summary this is a good cheap run around - except insurance. Its quiet, smooth and reliable and cover motorway miles easily. The diesel engine has lots of torque above 2000rpm which is great for hills and overtaking in the rural roads where I live.
How reliable do you find the car?
Engine management light came on so I took it to the dealer for a check. Needed the emissions sensor replaced. Cost about £50.Does the car do everything you expected it to do?
I wanted a cheap stop-gap and the car has been perfect for that.About their car
