1997 Toyota Previa GS review from UK and Ireland
"Best people carrier by far."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The stereo packed up (which was aftermarket, so you can't blame Toyota).
General comments?
The van handles exceptionally well for a family bus, and is no slouch when you put you foot down.
The interior is well thought out, and easy to clean (a must when you have kids).
The manual gearbox is notchy in use, and will not be hurried through a gearchange. It's still miles better than an auto..
