    Good Points: Responsive engine, robust, high-grade interior, driving position and great looks


    Bad Points: Poor loading access - due to door not opening fully, over-powered power steering, clunky gear change


    General comments: I have driven the Toyota RAV4 2001 (1.8, 2 wheel drive version)on a number of ocassions(belongs to a friend). Great fun to drive, very responsive.
    Its downfall, however, is that I found the steering too light (at one point I nearly lost control) and therefore the drive uninvolving. It's not what I would call a drivers car. Also, the gears are somewhat clunky.
    The seats are very comfortable on long journeys and the cabin is roomy(I'm just over 6 feet tall) and made of high-grade plastics

    I brought rav4 in june 2001 and have never regreted the purschase. Its only the base model, but it had everything I needed, auto, air, alarm and recently I got a tow bar fitted. It is totally reliable and can bet any CRV, X-Trail hand downs at the lights. Does "Giorgina Holland"
    really knows what she's talking about, maybe it was a 'lada niva 4X4' she brought not a rav4.

    My 2001 Toyota RAV4 4x4 car kept breaking down and it had to go back to the garage 11 times in 5 weeks.
    I am really disappointed with this 4x4, never ever buy one.
