bartundey: The avensis wasn't made for American market, a friend got his from Belgium. Internet is your friend then meet people who import from other countries other than us and Canada. The avensis is smaller when compared to a sienna, all on the average Toyota brands are known for reliability. Fuel consumption: the avensis saves more fuel but not as powerful as the sienna Maintenance: the sienna will only require 1 extra liter of oil during oil change. Durability: this is where there is personal preferences. When a machine A or engine has a rated output of 80 and maximum output of 100. You as a user pushes it to 90/100 per time Then machine B haa rated output of 100 and maximum output of 130. Another user pushes it to same 90/100 Which machine would last longer under continuous use? Machine A is the Avensis while the sienna is the machine B. |

Re: Please Recommend Affordable Family Minivan by soloehis(m): 2:59pm On May 06, 2020 |

Re: Please Recommend Affordable Family Minivan by bartundey(m): 9:10pm On May 07, 2020 |
soloehis:Checked those websites but most cars from Europe are Diesel engines,l mean the affordable ones ... |
Re: Please Recommend Affordable Family Minivan by bartundey(m): 9:12pm On May 07, 2020 |
soloehis:oh alright.. Thanks |
Re: Please Recommend Affordable Family Minivan by soloehis(m): 10:30pm On May 07, 2020 |
bartundey:use filter. ..I disagree with u on diesel..most are manual drive..but u can get a cheap one if u are patient enough to monitor advert s..germans can sell off car at very cheap rate due to lack parking space. But u need to have a trusted person over there to act fast because there are many importers all over the world monitoring 1 Like |

Re: Please Recommend Affordable Family Minivan by bisitopi: 4:22pm On May 08, 2020 |
Is not about speed but reliable and strong + second hand value. Toyota sienna 2001 to 2003 is much better than Kia or Hyundai. Choice is yours !! |

Re: Please Recommend Affordable Family Minivan by Thinkwellplz: 7:32pm On May 10, 2020 |
Please I just come across suzuki vitara 2006 model, fell in love with it. I need your advice please? |
Re: Please Recommend Affordable Family Minivan by bisitopi: 1:12pm On May 11, 2020 |
Thinkwellplz: The Suzuki Vitara is a compact SUV produced by Suzuki in four generations since 1988. The second and third generation models were known as the Suzuki Grand Vitara, with the fourth and current series eschewing the "Grand" prefix. In Japan and a number of other markets, all generations have used the name Suzuki Escudo. The SUV is okay but please do the needful check if the part is available and affordable. |
