Buying Advice For Avensis Estate 2.2d Tr

[Oz180]

Hi,

I will be test driving a couple of avensis estate diesel this week-end and

It would be great if I had a heads up on anything to look out for

The cars only have ~14,000 miles and they are 08 regs

I was told the dipped beam was very poor on the previous models, is this true?

Many thanks

I have a 57 plate & I don't have a problem with the dipped beam (I think that they made a change for the 07 models) however I'm less than impressed by the main beam.

Should be upgrading the bulbs on both this weekend if the weather plays ball (it's not the easiest of changes as you have to remove some stuff to get access).

How much are they asking for them?

The T180s seem to have worse economy than the 150bhp models due to their dpf if that's a concern.
