I travelled from North Devon to cuffley Garageto buy this car. Service was very good and honest on the telephone prior to the purchase of my new car. The car is great, I am sure there will be no problems.

Just purchased this vehicle today so only one moterway trip so far but extremely happy. Very quiet and comfortable ride. Managed 43mpg but suspect will do more once I figure out cruise control next time.

Very reliable and lovely to drive. Not cheap to run, but that's down to age. Would definitely go for a Rav4 again in the future.

The RAV is a comfortable family vehicle and is easy to live with. It has acceptable 4x4 abilities coping well with snow and muddy tracks and so able to handle the challenges that most owners will encounter. The heating and air conditioning systems are particularly good.

My car is very reliable and great during the winter. It consumes petrol like it is going out of fashion though and the car tax is very expensive.

I am very happy with my Rav4. This is my second one, the first was a 3 doormodel and this is 5, including the door into the boot. It has good boot space and is very comfortable on a long journey.

Bought 2nd hand after a VW Passat estate; good all round comfort and performance, but some 'fiddling' design features, eg the battery cover and plastic turnscrews, that annoy me, and I miss the easy conversion to full flat floor space. I appreciate the 4x4 aspect though.

Brilliant car! Never gone wrong in thirteen years. I have a bad back, so find the height very comfortable. With careful packing , the car can hold a lot of stuff (two weeks camping equipment for example). Have recommended rav 4 to lots of people.

I've had this car for almost 3 years. It had 31,000 miles and 2 previous owners and was in mint condition. It now has approaching 71,000 miles and regularly give 45+mpg. In 30 years of driving and owning cars, it is the most satisfying to drive, certainly over my last 4 vehicles. thi s is primarily based on comfort, and inherent feeling of safety/security/reliability.

Very reliable car, but fuel consumption could be better i.e. 28 - 30mpg. 5 door model, but rear door only opens about 80%, thus it can awkward putting large things in the boot. Service charges are fixed and they are reasonable. Best thing about the car is the high seating postion when driving.
