RAV 4L jap import

Advantages: price,reliability.
Disadvantages: not a real off-roader.

...I have a 1995 RAV 4L,3 door, which is a Japanese imported model, which has done 80,000 kilometers, I bought an imported model mainly because of price, saving myself about £1000.

Every aspect of driving is...
