"Comfortable, reliable and responsive"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing.

General comments?

Very pleased with every aspect of the Picnic. Very comfortable, responsive and reliable. The boot space when the back 2 seats have been removed is excellent when transporting items of furniture, rubbish to the tip etc. The only problem is lack of boot space when 2 adults and 4 children go on holiday - a roof boot is a must. A small price to pay.

Toyota Picnic... also known as the "Ipsum" in Japan, is as the comments say, a very good versatile workhorse. Not a sports handler, but family-friendly, quiet and smooth. I am getting 29mpg most of the time, though this falls to 23mpg when towing on open roads. A small trailer assists when taking all the family for a holiday.

I bought a 1996 Ipsum 6 months back. It is a great car. My children love it, as it has a good seating view.

Engine is nippy, though lags in acceleration, but can't complain for a 2.0 litre 7 seater. Very comfortable cruising on full load.

I think my toyota Ipsum is really a very good car. It is the best Mid-Size MPV I have used. So far after 8 years, I do not encounter any problem with my car. I love it and I think all of you can look and try this car. It is really good and spacious. For people with a few family members, it is recommended.
