1998 Toyota Avensis Linea Sol Wagon review from Netherlands
"Nice drive, very reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The driver's seat broke at 150,000 km.
This was repaired for free by my local dealership.
The air conditioning never worked at driving speed higher than 140 km/h.
General comments?
I have had several cars in this class but this has been the most reliable of them all.
The seats are a bit small (I am 1.86 tall), but comfortable.
The Linea Sol is quite complete.
