    UK just bought a high milage (130,000) Series 2 MTR 2006 2 litre VVTi 3door and 5 speed manual box and it’s like driving a new car mechanically. The MTR denotes a few extras like a electric roof, tinted rear glass, AC climate control etc. It has brand new Goodrich all terrain tyres which I have never had before. The only disappointment was no Bluetooth radio but in one of the little storage units I found a gadget called a Bluetooth FM transmitter. Brilliant bit of kit and allows my to use my phone and keep the original radio with steering wheel controls. This car is going to Spain and will be ideal for me and a little bit of driving down tracks to some hidden beaches with my kayak on the roof. I’ve seen early reviews that state the two back seats are small and no leg room which is not true but as I don’t use them They will come out and use the car like a two seater which gives you a big boot (trunk).

New brakes in april, shocks done in May, oil change after oil change and now im about to replace the evap canister and purge valve. Ive had this car for 8 years. Its time to find something else.

    I think it would be beneficial to start making comparisons to a car closer to the class of whatever your driving. You always use Lamborghini and Porsche as an example but we all know it wouldn’t blow the doors off that. Change it up depending on what you’re driving. For this maybe use a modern compact suv or sedan as an example if you get what I mean. I’m really not trying to be an ass or anything just making suggestions because I love your vids and want you to get more views. Idk how you have so many subscribers but the views are so low.

    You need to check your years on the 2.4 "for the rest of the world". I have serviced and repaired many 2000 -2005 2.4 second gen Rav4's. Also the rear seats move back and forth. when they are all the way back the is a lot of room.

  • @VitorCoelho56
    @VitorCoelho56 ปีที่แล้ว

    I bought a really beat up Rav4 2gen like this one. The last guy was a morron and I knew I got cheap because there was a few things to fix. Bottomline, engine was running dry for a year as the genius manage to get the oil wrong. Easy enough fix, car is a beast. It was running for a full year without the new engine oil getting to the bottom of the engine!
    It easily access sand dunes shortcuts, mud roads, soft sand, wet grass. Its an amazing car for the price and year. Only regret is not getting one earlier, and maybe importing one from Europe where they have sunroof and a few sportyish plastics rs.
    I'll run with him until hidro cars are common.

    My mom had one of these when I was like 5 or 6 years old and she hated it lmao. My sister ended up getting rear ended when she was driving it and my mom got rid of it after a very short period of time. I was glad she got rid of it because I liked riding in her 2001 GMC Yukon XL way more 😆. She let that Yukon just sit there while she drove the RAV4 around to save gas

    Have a 2001 same as the 2005, rattle in back came from the rear right storage bin directly in line with the rear lights it was the wheel brace and tools smacking on the wheel well cured with a couple of foam wraparound pads. 83k kilometers goes all over Kenya hence the steering wheel is on the CORRECT SIDE. Wife two kids in back not a problem even though the 5yr old is in a child seat.
