Hi,

Today I have ordered (signature + depossit) our second Rav 4. It's a 2003 3-Dr NRG Auto in gold bought it of a Toyota dealer and comes with all the Toyota warranty etc.

Will part Exchange the Mercedes Benz so I can close that chapter of driving with a star on the hood. I was driving the 5-Dr of my missus more and more so why not one for my self!

Will collect it this Saturday.

Congratulations, Biton. I'm sure you will enjoy your new car. It's your second RAV4, isn't it? Well done - it must be nice to have a little fleet of them! No doubt you'll let us know how you get on with it.

Well done great choice in RAV4 , I'm more than pleased with my 3 door XT3 Auto, cheeky chunky looks, good bit of speed and good MPG what more could you ask for .

An excellent choice!!
A 3 door NRG was my first foray into the world of the Rav4 - and I still haven't left yet!!!

Hi,

Thanks for all the nice words.

Just being called by the sales man (lady) who checked if I was happy and what I wanted to be done on the car. Well it's the normal things like front brake discs, pads and tires. They will be replaced. Will pick it up at 11.00 am.

It will look cool when they both stand together. I will make some pictures of my Rav 4 line-up as soon i get the time!

Hope you enjoy your new RAV4 , after i bought mine i got some Toyota carpet mats ,and a rubber boot liner just to keep her clean and tidy .

they were included in the sale... ;-)

I'm looking for one too Either NRG or XT3 (3 door).

Would be interested to know what mpg you get from the Auto. I don't suppose they do those in Diesel Autos do they. For me and the wife to use.

My 3 door XT3 as an on board fuel display and claims i'm getting 34/35 to the gallon , thats on my mixed town and B road driving, but when i do a fuel fill up and then a refill and work it out on paper, the figure is around 30/31 mpg, which i feel is still very good for a 2.0 auto .

i will mostly use it on the highways so after some time i will post some mpg statics. but i'm also are on [url="http://www.spritmonitor.de"]http://www.spritmonitor.de[/url] so then you have live info, excellent web site.

Thanks for the reply. Anything above 30 mpg is a bonus

Now I just have to find a good one for less than £9K

Cracking car there Biton!!!

I had the manual version on a 52 plate a few years back and the best average consumption I saw was 27mpg!!!!
