I just bought a 2012 1.3 IQ with 64K miles to mainly tow behind my Motorhome and live in West London, so thought I would join the forum to learn more about it! Im loving driving it so far. Shame Toyota ditched it in 2014.

Welcome to TOC David.. The iQ is looking good, nice colour.

Hello Joe,

Thanks, Its certainly a fun car to drive and very easy to park and turn around. Burnt Orange is the colour. Matches the trim on my motorhome! I would have loved to buy a new one but as Toyoto stopped manufacturing them in 2014 it wasnt to be. Another plus is that its given me extra space in an all ready crowded Garage.

Hello David - welcome to Toyota Owners Club.

The first post of the following topic describes why the IQ was discontinued in the UK/Europe -

Hi Frosty,

thank you for that article! It is an interesting read, well I just had a run to Bristol and back and got 49 miles to the gallon!
I can also fit my foldup bike in the back with seats down. It fits my needs perfectly. Im liking it very much so far.

regards

Welcome David....looks good..always had a liking for the IQ.

Yes I have now!! there is plenty of information on the IQ on these forums, just what I was looking for. I fitted a Dash Cam a couple of days ago front and back. Certainly found it easy to run the wires in on such a small car. The only thing I had to be really careful about were the many airbags fitted to the car. Trim was easy to remove to give a professional look to the installation. Currently getting the wheels powder coated to give it improved looks.
