Photo of the salon. I'll tell you about the pros, cons. - Toyota Avensis, 2.0L, 2008
While the car has been at the station for a month due to a catalyst malfunction, I will refresh the magazine with photos of the salon and my thoughts.
Respect to the people who photographed this, otherwise I can’t hold the camera in my hands directly.
What can I say about the salon?
When I first sat down in Avensis in a car dealership, I immediately tried to lower the seat as low as possible, reaching the minimum mark, the seat seemed to me a stool. I didn't like it initially. On this, the negative moments ended and what happens to people when they buy a car, well, not of their dreams, but even if it is a very long-awaited and beloved one, this is the "shaving" of everything that the eye clings to, everything is soft to the touch, all the boxes they open smoothly, the interior lighting is warm, pleasant, everything is at hand, the bordachek is roomy, the steering wheel is upholstered in leather, it is comfortable in the hands, the buttons on the steering wheel are just where you need it, which is really what I expected for the money.
The first impressions are gone, the euphoria is gone, and now, after 1.5 years, I can more objectively assess this kingdom of plastic, fabric and other trash.
Firstly, in the process of operation, the material of the seat upholstery was already pretty shaking. Black, easily soiled, poorly cleaned cloth. A drop of water will leave terrible stains that can only be wiped off by thoroughly washing the seat.
Secondly, the driver's mat. He's just terrible. I will soon nail it down or screw it down or throw it out. He is constantly hammered under the pedals, no matter how you correct him, he is still pushed somewhere. By the way, I will say that he has already taken the form of the position in which it is more convenient for him) for reference, these are the original rubber mats that came to me as a gift with the car, along with the rubber of Nokia Hakapelita 5.
Thirdly, my left side of the glove box sagged, maybe this was influenced by a bottle of cognac that had been lying there for a week, I don't know, but the moment is still offensive.
We go further. In a frost of minus 25, information displays and displays on a radio tape recorder with climate simply refuse to show something until the car warms up.
Further. A couple of months later, the seat lift lever broke. How he did it in my head does not fit. I am committing suicide. Well, he did not live with me, what can you do.
What upset me was the lack of a handy cell phone pocket. The telephone was fitted in the door handle. Not very convenient, but necessary.
And this awful pseudo-tree, pseudo plastic or pseudo hell knows that the same is not happy.
I'll add another unpleasant nuisance with the luggage compartment. For some unknown reason, the plywood of the trunk floor simply sagged over the spare wheel and it is no longer realistic to put something in the center of the trunk, it may break.
Oh, how could I forget the instrument lighting! She's just awful! Immediately I initially thought to change it to white, but when I found out the prince changed his mind pretty quickly. Now I've gotten used to it, sometimes I even like it ... How do you like it?
I heard that if a car under warranty is on the OD service for a month, according to some articles of consumer protection, they must exchange this car for a new one.
Just a great story! Frankly, I laughed. Father Camry's duck glove also sagged. With rugs the same problem. Driving is generally ugly. The gearshift knob is frayed and this terrible fabric on the seats. When you sit on them, it is as if you are sticking your butt to the pillow, terrible material - soiled and unpleasant to the touch.
I have grandma Avika - Karina E, and the same problem with the driver's mat! What I just didn’t do ... Useless. He, too, has already taken a form that is convenient for him alone! Thank you for the story! Sooner or later I will change my old lady, thinking about Avensis ... Now I know the "consumer cons" of the second. Helpful information!
75,000 km is already dofiga, it may already start to creak, not everything is in it)
mainer
Did not notice. The suspension is very comfortable, no left knocks.
Ksati I will note that there are no crickets, creaks, etc. in the cabin. If you glue it with vibroplast, you can ride like in a tank!
Yes, the backlight is really stupid and old-fashioned, the seats are mega-soiled, God forbid you drip something. But as for the creaks, they appeared in my father's car, the mileage was already 75,000, and so the armrest began to creak, or rather constantly rattle and somewhere around the checkpoint there are creaks, but everything is perfect! I really like the car!

more believe that you have come across (I envy for the good, I thought they were all like that) www.avensis-club.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2723
no, because of the painting of the body and the alteration of the interior,
I understand the words about "the golden execution of the interior / exterior"
because of the film, it is just unlikely
duck, by seriousness, you will make a guarantee; you will lose it, glue it for now, and then muddy your normal appearance in everything
With pseudoderms, yes, it's just awful) If it turns out to embody the idea with the golden execution of the interior / exterior, then I will cover it with a golden film, if not, then I will love carbon fiber, trite but beautiful)
around the cabin bro you do not be offended, but the panel like a tree is not ice at all, glue it with a carbon film, or just in the color of the interior ...
and the orange tidy pissed me off, I soldered it on a white one, maybe I'll put a blue filter later ... and you wait for the end of the guarantee: - P
Not) with a gold version, I have plans to paint discs, calipers, nameplates and some little things, and keep it in the same style throughout the cabin, then the "golden" illumination of the instrument panel will look harmonious in the cabin.
Well, as the epogue of my tuning there will be golden illumination under the bottom, but these are all dreams, dreams, I hope they can come true)
Great, this is one of the most important criteria for me when choosing a car. For this, by the way, I really appreciate the Audi. And avensis means respect for good ergonomics.
The most important thing is that everything in the cabin is in its place, exactly where I would place the button, lever, display, etc. )
A meaningful story, thanks for the enlightenment in this regard. In general, according to the pictures, the salon is good, but the truth is annoying little things somehow spoil the picture a little, but on the whole it is a decent salon.
Duc our bitches still have such a disgusting climate (All the pits that are patched up then fly out in the fall in the spring.
in fact, wherever he was, or where there are no ideal ones, in Germany they are constantly being made, often on the autobahns, repairs are already a minus. we and you rarely make them, also a minus)) so the genius is the one who first said this wonderful phrase - "it's good where we are not"
now full pi ... dec, we got rid of the ice from the roads and now there is a hole in the hole, just have time to run around, the holes are not deep but multiple, in general, everything is like not in Europe)) therefore, in principle, one of the criteria for choosing a car for me is the price of the suspension) ) you think the same picture, where they did a year ago, has not collapsed there, but there are also such roads that have not been done since the collapse of the union, but only patched up, that's just a priest there every spring))
Ha, the fifth floor of dreams, probably just, I think if ever it comes to buying, I will hardly take it)
How are the roads in Latvia?
I have an old woman, but such a dear car, I don't want to melt with it at all) with the previous ones it was easier to melt, I even happily got rid of the Audi, but Toyota somehow justifies its slogan - "drive a dream".
ps BMWs are not bad cars, but if you need a jeep, then I would not consider x5. It is normal to throw a show-off in the city, and then it is useless. BMW was created for German roads, I hated BMWs while driving them, holes, bumps, there is not much to accelerate, consumption is large and little use.
And so I lived in Germany for the summer and drove a BMW 525 E39 there, and I realized that it was a great car, but for their beautiful roads and autobahns, it gives a real pleasure there.
I want myself a BMW X5 now) But I think in the coming years it will not be up to him. I will rejoice in what I have. Moreover, Avensis is very soundly made, I think all that I have described here is all the little things. I think over time the car will take on a completely different look, otherwise I have it for a long time)
once again I was convinced that my theory is correct, you have to drive a car for no more than a year, otherwise it gets bored and ceases to please), by the way, I also had a bent glove compartment, I sinned on the consequences of an accident, but it turns out that there is a birth disease, I corrected it with a hairdryer, I just warmed it up and bent as I should have, now everything is fine.
this is tochnob the sealants on a different road they build, there they make a normal pillow under the asphalt, and the holes are patched in a completely different way)
what price tag was announced for the color change in the dashboard? .. also think about this question =)
huh what is true is true) As I was explained, there are just a lot of diodes. Therefore, there is a lot of work. Now I am already accustomed to the color and I even like it, warm, pleasant. It can be seen well in any weather.
no x ... for myself ... for that kind of money, the floor of the car can be embellished and not some thread the dashboard ... the more expensive the car, the more I watch the masters ask for more money for the same work ... if I find a schematic, I'll change the mb myself closer to summer, if it's pretty simple , and not from a series-assemble the spaceship itself =)
Don't tell me! When they told me, I did not believe it. The car has just appeared and already in our provincial town, one might say, they taxi on it. We go and suddenly we see: taxiing into the parking lot and dropping off passengers, well, we just could not pass by without trying the new product))))
In general, we have this: "take a loan and pay for it by driving the car into a taxi", idiots in one word ...
When I saw the inscription "... ngton" on the glass, the first thing I did was ask the driver (I was driving in a taxi): "Is she from England?" To which he received a proud answer: "From the United Kingdom") Ahahahahahaha.
I liked that it was going quietly and softly. I didn’t like the two-color backlighting (like white-orange) - it would be better if they did one-color. And I didn’t drive. The design seems to be good, not annoying. The headlights are just some scary ones, they are too sharp, but the taillights are pretty awesome)
And not only in the USA, in Europe, too, everything is strict with this case. But this is if the original Toyota rugs.
How is the new Avensis, first impressions so to speak?)
A fatal accident due to a rug that blocked the pedals in the United States recalled a large number of cars - take a closer look at the rug!
Is the backlight orange? I like.
And as for the frozen display, this is a problem of many cars, say, the seven, it cools down very quickly, the temperature in the cabin is the same as outside, so at -16 on the display of the radio there are incomprehensible symbols, instead of letters)
In general, I like the avensis of the previous generation more, but as one comrade noted, we will most likely get used to the new one (by the way, I already had time to ride it)
Yeah at the expense of the phone you're absolutely right buddy = (
But since I do not smoke, I had from the ashtray to make a place for your phone: D
More clutch pedal I just freeze out the fact that it has to squeeze up to melting when switching to any gear!
And about switching reverse gear, I generally keep quiet = (
A good story, useful for those who want to buy Avik)
There is no unnecessary enthusiasm and shouts that my asshole is the best and never breaks anything. Everything in this world is made by hand)
It is necessary to paint about your own chpokus in this style.
And the machine itself is excellent, for me it is so very comfortable;)
I also had the left side of the glove compartment sagging. ((It's
sad that in Toyota such little things upset ...
+ creak sometimes appears under the windshield on the left side (((25 thousand)
+ the same rug (the hooks that somehow held him broke ...) wipe off already (drove 25 thousand)
+ the fabric is also sad ... (I don’t know how the back seat, but it was just horror killed!) put on covers ...
+ armrest could be made more subtle.
This is my opinion about the car. And how many people have so many opinions, as they say)
The fact that the brightness can be adjusted is a thrill, but the color is not to my liking. All my friends on Avensis in my city have problems with the rug. The problem is solved by installing cloth. The pseudo tree is just a snake +) With the trunk, I also did not understand at all how this could happen. It still sags over the spare wheel. You just need to lay down the transported object closer to the wall of the seats, deeper into the trunk. Apparently this ruined me. Displays can be thrown away) Where is your drive bay? O_o The glove compartment sagged in several of my friends, also a disease)
There is no negativity of the article, the car is wonderful, but with its kosyachki, I love it very, honestly)
Thank you for your opinion.
interesting opinion from the author.
- I personally like the orange optical illumination. The brightness can be adjusted, the view will change immediately.
- I hear about the problem with the rug for the first time. The driver's "carpet" lies far behind the pedals and does not touch or clog. It is the same standard (soft rubber) as your gift seems to be.
- disgust from the pseudo-tree passed by the side)) the equipment of the salt, everything in the interior color)
- about the trunk it is not clear, what did you carry such that your plate caved in ?! I drive 110-125 liters of water in 10 liter "buckets" almost every weekend and I drive all the rules)
- in the cold, the display does not show anything, it just burns not so clearly, but everything passes very quickly.
- phone in the compartment for disks or in the door handle and all the rules))
- the glove compartment is stuffed with a lot. always. not sag, but I think it's a matter of time.
- the seats are easily soiled, even very much. But comfortable enough. Covers to help.
I left this post due to some negative orientation of the article.
Not all bad for a class D car at this price point.
Well, I usually have glasses there, documents) It's bad that when you close the lid you can not even see that the phone is ringing (
YUSB is not yes, but there is an alternative - a car link.
A compartment with disks in the center of the panel, a lid that opens upwards) well, I have disks there and a phone, maybe someone else uses this compartment)
I would also refer to the jambs as the lack of a USB input ... for me it's a bold minus (
Kar Link is a device that simulates a sidichanger. Only there will be a USB flash drive instead of disks. You can read here: www.drive2.ru/cars/citroe.../288230376151981379/#post
there, look at his blogs, he writes a lot about this device.
