Toyota Avensis Estate reviews by year of make: 2001 2003 2004 2005 2007 Read all reviews
![]()
Well-built car apart from headlights (atrocious) and parcel shelf (cheap and flimsy). Very clear instrument but onboard computer greatly over-estimates mpg, and clock in the middle of speedo cannot be seen by passengers, or easily by driver. Quiet and relaxing on long journeys and smooth geachange around town. Very roomy, rear seats fold easily, but safety bar behind rear seats is too heavy and awkward to remove. Big minus point is plastic headlights - our reflectors have melted after less than 40,000 miles, and car is a nightmare to drive after dark. Toyota say headlamp units are a "consumable item" and like oil and filters not covered by any Warranty. But at £500 a pair these are too costly to replace at regular intervals.
