General Comments
I really like the Toyota Rav4 2.0 XTR, it drives really well and is very economical. You can tell it's a diesel when you start it up but it's very civilised after that. It also tends to give my wife static shocks but there are some bad points. The reversing sensors are a sick joke as there is a switch in the boot which turns them off so if you don't know this and your wife has borrowed it to go shopping you might, for example, reverse into your next door neighbours car.
Driving is great but being a passenger isn't. You tend to get thrown around as the ride is firm and 3 children in the back are cramped and complain of being sick.
