Good Points
Roomy, comfortable, and good performance.
Bad Points
Noisy on wet roads.
Failure to remove water from side windows when switched to down position.
General Comments
When travelling over surface water, a noise similar to stones being rattled in a tin can is observed in my Toyota Yaris Colour Collection 1.0.
This is due to the curved front windows moving away from the rubber seal when switched to the down position. Rain water/mist is taken down into the door interior, most of which remains on the windows on raising them. This presents a driving hazard - unless the rain/mist is removed by hand.

your copy of my e mail doesn't read correctly - The 'rattle' is not due to the curved windows! Please correct. Keithjo

the second para of my review appears to be missing out on my comments. It should read - when switching front side windows to down position, any rain water/mist is taken down into the door interior. This is due to the curved glass moving away from the rubber seal. Then when raising the windows the rain water/mist reappears and to overcome a potential driving hazard needs cleaning by hand. keithjo
