Avensis model which one is better

[Tomm5]

Who here on site thinks older 04 to 08 avensis was better built car than newer 09 to 2015 model shape avensis?

Depends what you mean by better built.  The T27 is a better styled car, more efficient and more sophisticated. The T25 is simpler and more robust.

I agree with Mrfix.Sophistication and complexity does not sit so well with an old car it just creates more ways to fail with some repairs being uneconomic for even quite good cars. And there is the ill fated EPB doh...on the T27.

Mean I have 12 plate but I think 08 are stronger built car Shell on 12 very light
