Because I have one on overnight test drive and really like it.

We don't get a lot of choice in this type of 7 seater/this price. It's the only one with a boot you can put anything in for a start. The NZ model has a 2.4 litre petrol engine (we like our engines BIG here) so I think the power worries I've read about on UK sites won't be an issue.

I think our version is different in other ways too- but there must be some stuff that's the same that owners can enthuse about.

never mind, 3bob - a) it's Saturday (always v v quiet as you know) and b) Avensis Versos are very thin on the ground over here so I don't think many MNers will have one. (Somebody has, I'm pretty sure it's cropped on a "what MPV?" thread, be patient!)

it's Sparkler1 (but she has a Halloween name atm, can't remember what)

Can't give info on the avensis BUT we have the corolla verso and sooooo love it..!!! If that helps ..!

Lovely to drive, lots of space and such a nice mpv but without the bulkiness iykwim.
My dad drive mine the other month and hasn't stopped raving about it since..! He drives estates due to work but so loves ours and is amazed at how nippy it is given its size. BTW I have the 1.8 vvti model.

Good luck. xx

Oh, that's good. Must measure our kayak - I'm sure it would fit in.
