2005 Toyota RAV4 CV Sport review from Australia and New Zealand
"Sporty and funky 4WD for those who want to be practical and have fun too!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with the RAV4.
General comments?
If your looking for sporty, practical car, then this is for you.
It has plenty of acceleration from the 2.4 Litre engine, and never feels slow.
The ride is firm but sporty, and comfortable on long country drives.
Handling is good on all surfaces, and it tackles corners like a small hatch.
The seats are comfortable and the interior is funky for a 4WD.
Boot has plenty of space, especially when the seats are folded, or completely removed!
