2000 Toyota Yaris Verso GS review from UK and Ireland
"A big car in a small package"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New drivers door seal fitted under warranty.
General comments?
Other than servicing and warranty work noted above, the car has been totally reliable.
Overall economy just under 43 mpg, best economy 47 mpg, worst 38.5 mpg.
More load space than a Mercedes E class estate when the seats are folded under the floor. Yaris Verso = 2100 litres. Mercedes E class estate = 1900 litres.
Body roll apparent, but sticks to the road well when cornering.
Use the gearbox and it's a great overtaker and hill climber. Motor very tractable - pulls fifth gear at 23mph on the flat and accelerates smoothly without a murmur - isn't VVT wonderful.
High seats make access easy. The digital dash is excellent. The cabin is very roomy and is 2 inches wider than the saloon. The headroom is excessive!!
The only critiscism I have is that the ride could be better.
