  3. These German prestige cars are a load of crap, we pay more for them due to some idea of reliability, the 2.5 is meant to be bullet proof, don't get me started on vag cars

  11. Hello all, took in an auto 2005 Toyota Rav4 and the exhaust has more holes than a tramp's vest, I'd like to go again with this car but the exhaust is almost £500 plus fitting, not really financially viable on an old car, anybody have any contacts for Toyot bits?
