2001 Toyota RAV4 GX review from UK and Ireland
"Very good, would get another when the time comes"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing other than the yellow engine light which won't ever go out. At 21,000 miles the Dealer told me to just ignore it saying it was a common problem!
General comments?
This is the third RAV I have had - and the first 5 door MK2. Seriously better than the MK1, feels and is a bigger car.
Off road as good as the MK1 surprisingly so as I've taken it places I would previously have only used a Land Rover for. Decent off-road tyres a necessity for this though !
OK in snow too. No problems on several ski trips to the Alps.
