You are welcome. Oh, that's awesome. I hope it's a good and solid car. 👍🚗

It really is sad news, it's such a nice and comfy car. Even servicing it isn't that bad. Glad you like it, as I usually don't do reviews

Glad you like it 👍

You are welcome

It is pretty nice

It's really nice. In sunlight all the metal flakes shine the car looks very nice.

This had the handle to pull

At first, I thought it was for opening the trunk, but it didn't work. So that is a replacement key with extra buttons or the sensor has a fault. I can't say much, that car was lent to me for 3 weeks.

Yeah, I can't say anything bad too. Avensis was built as a family hauler, that's it's main purpose, and as Toyota built it, should last lifetime, as long as you take care of the car. How many cars I used to own and drive, all I can say, each car from each country have their flaws and good. With proper care and eliminating / upgrading the '' deal breaking problem'' on each car makes them pretty much awesome. ( over time everything degrades, so squeaking and such on cheaper cars are a 100%)

I bought my very first diesel German Passat B8 with 170k km. Made in a year 40k and at 212k flywheel damage...1500e investment and 2 DPF sensors 250e. I needed bigger familly car but the biggest mistake was buying German garbage. We have Auris 1.4 vvti in our garage for 12 years works and looks great no issue. Instead buying Avensis I went for Passat which was mistake. Now it's for sale and I found 2014 Avensis 1.8 with only 60k looks brand new. Just waiting for a victim to sell this nice looking piece of German garbage...😂😂😂

Good luck, hope you can sell it for a good price. With Germans cars you have to be careful, the older Passat's before 2000 are tanks. 2014 Avensis with 60k, wow. That's pretty low for it's age.

​@@KlavsX_Yeah it's low but if oil service done yearly I have no second thought.Toyota is indeed the most reliable out there.

Awesome 2012 Avensis. The newest Avensis you can get is 2018. Then Toyota nurfed it and changed what I loved about Avensis models

Oh, nice. 2018 models are quite nice, I hear plenty of people talking about smoothness and drivability. Sadly ''cheap plastic'' found its way into every car, If I'm not wrong, from 2015 or 2017 upwards. ( Even Mercedes Benz, and Audi engine bays) If you have electric folding mirrors, and the mirror doesn't fold, that is a fault with the car or wiring. Toyota's I have driven, folding mirrors do work, but folding mechanisms slow down as the years go by.

@@KlavsX_ I'm not saying that other cars (especially the premium ones) use materials of great quality (it's even surprising what shit they can put into their cars), but in Avensis, they designed really nice interior and used very thin plastic parts which are mounted crappy (this is my first Toyota with such shitty front panel quality). I have also Yaris 2 which is all plastic inside, but the material is thick and does not bend. Pushing any place at the front panel in Avensis makes some noise, but everything looks great ;) Anyway, other things in this car are really nice, especially comfort and fuel consumption (on regular 90km/h road it's not a problem to get 5.5 - 6.0l per 100km having all my family on the board and my dog - 2+2+dog :) ) And I had a great opportunity to buy it 3 years ago when the prices were not so high.

Awesome, I'm glad you managed to get a deal for your car. Ah, sorry, now I got what kind of cheap plastic your talking about. Wow, that is quiet shocking, that in Avensis model they would put thin plastic, Toyota do know that people actually use the cars and cheap plastic will break and bend easily. How are the Yaris? I'm thinking about one as a run around the town, as I live in London.

@@KlavsX_ man, Yaris II is actually everything what I expect from a small car. It's a kind of magic how such a small car can be so huge inside. For everyday commuting we use Yaris not Avensis stil with the same team on the board (2+2+dog). Inside you have many storage places, as I mentioned, everything is thick plastic, but good looking one. The back seat can be adjusted, so you may increase the size of the trunk. Mine is 1.3 engine and it's a small beast with low fuel consumption. So low that buying a hybrid is not so obvious comparing the price. Even I have no problem with rust and I live in Poland. All my previous Toyotas were eaten by rust. But I must admit, I put anti-rust protection on the chassis. And I repeat, the size on outside allows me to slip intro every whole, but at the same time it's huge inside for class B. Of course it's not a fancy car with small windows and sport look, but it's a kind of city beast. I live in suburbs od mid size city and with all my family we do 30 km daily. It's not painfull anyway ;) to say something bad - the front seats are a little mistake. Not sure who designed them, maybe not a human ;) In the end I would say one thing. New Yaris is overdesigned car that cannot be compared to the II. Small outside, small inside, small windows, small trunk.I could afford, but it's useless for my needs.

I see. Thank you for the information. Sounds like Toyota did a good job on the yaris. ( with a seat upgrade would be better, but hey nothing is perfect)

That's a good question. First I have to drive an corolla touring, so I could have experienced it and have an opinion on this subject.

people on the internet complain about the small interior of the new corolla , also about the ridiculous weak horn. I did not see these comments about the avensis up to now.

mostly what people complain about avensis that some interior panels feels like cheap plastic. 🤔

there is no big difference, same confort and space interior.... the corolla replace the Avensis, try a Corolla touring hybride , 1.8 liter 140hp, or 2.0 liter, 197hp,..make a drive test, and see...

Avensis is better, I tried the corolla touring out as an avensis replacement and it was very cramped, the screen was also mounted too high and disturbed the view. Rear headroom and leg room was absolutely tiny, couldn't move my feet and my head hit the headliner. Getting in the rear seat I hit my head on the roof and it was painful. Boot was also much smaller and lower, seats didn't fold flat. Infotainment was throwing software errors every minute on the test car. But hybrid was very economical. Didn't leave a very good impression.

If I remember correctly it was 15 business with almost all packages

it was Business

Diesel

@@KlavsX_ does this car faces any DPF or EGR problems? Thanks

Couldn't agree more.

@@ethanpunto9222 cuz there are better diesel options. All EU manufacturers are making better diesel engines than japanese. Japan know how to do proper petrol cars. I think they dont even offer diesel cars anymore. Guess why. Also diesel cars are expensive to repair if something happen. And it will happen sooner or later.

​@@sandukanecJapanese still make diesel engines...only not for green liberal transgender EU market...😂🤣

@@sandukanec My Mazda Premacy has over 500k km in odometar and still runing strong. Gess you dont know a lot abut Japanese diesel engines

Interesting, why is it unreliable? I had it for some years, never did me wrong, apart from wear items and service.

​​​@@KlavsX_he is wrong, the avensis is known for extremely good reliability but the diesel versions are not reliable in comparison petrol is much better. The diesel models use BMW engines, the petrol 1.8 is bulletproof. My dad had a Lexus is220d, Toyota diesel engine is not good either although he never had any problems

Toyota are probably the most reliable cars. I personally know 17 people who own Toyota make / made cars (old or new). Apart from wear and tear items and proper servicing they never broken down. Even on the Diesel engines I have to agree and disagree, apart from the extra cost of the car been diesel engine and to maintain it. Lexus are pretty good, as they are made by toyota.
