What Car? says
For It's a handsome-looking car which is reasonably pleasant to drive. It's got a deep boot, too.
Against The cabin trim feels cheap, and high-mileage engines can give problems
Verdict
It could be a shrewd, enjoyable and economical purchase, but beware of engine trouble
Go for… 1.9 TDi S
Avoid… 2.3-litre V5
- 1. The boot has a high lip and a narrow opening, but the seats split and fold, and boot space is generous
- 2. The cabin feels reasonably plush, although it's no match for a Golf
- 3. If you're considering a high-mileage 1.8 petrol, then make sure the timing belt has been changed on time
- 4. All Toledos need servicing every 10,000 miles, so if the service record looks sketchy, walk away
- 5. There can be major glitches with electronic control units on diesel engines
