Custom shot?

I) borrowed the custom shot from MW. I should get a new one with TAU in it, but it will have to wait.

^ no problem mojo, I was just joking...

Until there're more new members and with them, more fake rides... there's no need for custom shots actually

Yeah ive driven heaps of Toyota stuff over the years.... New Hilux's, Camry's over here, Corolla's, Aurion (aussie car), Yaris etc... I have liked most of them in general and they are all ssssssssssssssssssssssuper reliable... Never any hassles..

I had a 05 corolla hatch for 6 weeks and it was a great little car... Everything felt like it would last years without braking... 1.8ltr motor was pretty zippy and great on fuel..

Only thing i didnt like... the A pillars are huge and a pain in traffic at roundabouts and the like.

Cool car dude..

I agree, the A pillars are on the way, but that's the problem also in many other cars nowadays when windshields are bigger. Another little thing that is not Verso's best is the gear stick, it's in the front panel and I think it's because that the gear change is sometimes quite... well, not smooth. That is also problem in Verso's competitors though.

Will you be driving this to the meet at the NS?

[wackary]

7 seats!?!?!?!? This is what i need to drive around all my kids!! With all the car seats, we now have to take two cars to get everyone where we are going! I have too many children mojo!
That toyota will last forever; I had a friend with one back in college, it was old then but we absolutely ragged it over and over..dirt roads, road trips, totally neglected it and it never, ever died!

Just don't trade in your Sti.

It depends. Problem is that we only have one car and if I take it to the Ring for many days, my wife is left without ability to move the kids around.

Yes, it has 7 seats, allthough you wouldn't want to sit in the back row for a very long time. And the luggage space is very little when all the seats are up, but sometimes they are very handy. We've had some full moments with the car. 4 adults, 2 kids with safety seats, prams and Ikea shoppings. Trust me it was full then!

^I've sat in the 3rd row of a seven seater a few times. It's a really weird experience, almost as if you're looking inside the car through the back window. Not where I'd choose to sit for sure.

Another thing is the safety if there's a collision to the back of the car. In these compact 7-seaters, like Verso, there's really no space for impact.

We had a Renault 21 Nevada 18 years ago, with 3 rows of seats... because we re 6 and 2 dogs LOL! It was really narrow there... and quite complicated to get in and out of the car. Only for kids. As they say in the 2+2 coupes... that was more like a 5+2

The roof is so high and floor is flat so moving in Verso isn't so big problem. It is the same than in 3 door hatchback where the seats fold to give room to entry.
5 first seats can be moved each individually, so it makes it easier to adjust to the need of space.

Yeah, you'll be the crumple zone.
