Avensis II: A Toyota That Defies Reliability Myths
This model challenges the myth of Toyota's reliability. With over 220,000 km, the engine is already coated in oil. To make matters worse, it has a tendency to blow the head gasket. My car wasn't the only one with this issue; I've seen three others with the same problem. The water pump also frequently struggles in the Avensis. Denso injectors are durable, but when they do fail, the regeneration cost will severely drain the owner's wallet. I'm not even mentioning the cost of new injectors.
Pros:
Durable Denso injectors (when functioning)
Cons:
Engine often leaks oil after high mileage, Prone to blowing head gaskets, Water pump often fails, Expensive injector regeneration/replacement

Avensis II Review
After a failed experience with French automotive, I decided to buy a car known for reliability - that's why I chose Toyota. I searched for a long time for an automatic Avensis, but finally succeeded and I certainly don't regret the purchase. Contrary to some opinions, the car is very comfortable. Up to 120 km/h, it's quite quiet inside, and the seats are comfortable even on a several-hour journey. Added to these advantages is a spacious trunk - previously I had a sedan, which had a small opening, making it difficult to load anything.
Pros:
Reliable Toyota, Comfortable ride, Quiet cabin up to 120 km/h, Spacious trunk
Cons:
Difficult to find automatic transmission

Avensis II
My seventeenth year driving this car. Ferraris are faster, Rolls Royces more prestigious, mowers with three-cylinder engines burn less fuel, and V8s have a much better sound. Additionally, the Avensis is... average. A car that doesn't stand out, one of many on the road, neither prettier nor uglier. So why do I look with admiration at the Toyota Avensis T25? Because this car is like the Eternal Dairyman from Sapkowski. Once set in motion, it runs without breakdowns or downtime.
Pros:
Reliable and durable
Cons:
Average performance, Unremarkable appearance

Remarkable comfort, exceptional on-road fuel consumption (6 l! respecting limits), enjoyable engine. Unfortunately, the front bumper is very low and often scrapes.
