I've been in a pre-facelift Avensis estate with that 2.2 D4D 180, awesome engine, loads of power! :D

noticed it was strongest if kept between 1500 and 3500rpm tho, after 3500 and the power just drops off and only gets louder

Funny you should post this as my Dad had a loan of a Rav T180 and was singing its praises the other week. He was saying how strongly it pulled and how nicely it handled as well. I know I could live with one of them :D

That said, I think my Mum's Rav D-4D will be with us for quite a while longer....
