It's a Corolla.

There's two different 1.8L engines - the 1ZZFE and 2ZZGE.

For spirited driving, you'll want the Fielder Z with the 2ZZGE and the 6 speed manual gear box.

Otherwise the Fielder S (1ZZFE with either a 5 speed manual or 4 speed Auto) will do the job.

Have a look at http://english.auto.vl.ru/catalog/toyot ... er/2002_9/

And also have a look at the Spacio

And the Estima has a supercharged model.

Also look at the Toyota Wish. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_WISH)

Or perhaps a late model Ipsum?

(Spacio < Wish < Ipsum < Estima is the size range for the Toyota MPVs)

shame there not classed as a station wagon so no tax right off.

when you work for your self like your own company or your contracting to someone and you have a work vehicle aka a station wagon or say a 4x4 something that is classed as a work vehicle etc

you can get this tax right off thing i dont know much about it lol just heard about people working for them selves or something buying vehicles they can right off.

i think it is if only if you work for your self tho i maybe wrong like i said i dont know much about it

Doesn't have to be a SW, you can claim back the gst and running expenses, just need to watch for FBT

Lol. Ive got an Estima. They are shit, full stop. Really wanted one and now know they are a mechanical asshole.
Ive got two kids so need a wagon to carry bikes, pushchair rah rah.
The Fielder isnt a "look at me" masturbation wagon like a Mazda6

The manual boxes in these fielders dont last, given a year or 2 you will be changing it if you nana drive everywhere, but any spirited driving will kill it in months. The 1.8 engine is a great little pep unit & very economical too
