The TOYOTA RAV 4 (2000-06) 3DR STATION WAGON 2.0 VVTI XT2 is a compact, three-door SUV, taller and more versatile than a hatchback, but less bulky than a full-size 4x4. In the UK, it offers practical everyday transport with an adventurous image for drivers seeking value. The 2.0-litre petrol engine, raised driving position and ground clearance suit commuting, errands and weekend escapes. Three doors make rear access less convenient than in five-door rivals, so this RAV4 best suits couples, smaller households and active drivers, rather than families regularly carrying back-seat passengers. Mycarcheck.com records show average mileage of 144,000 miles, annual use of 5,000 miles and 3.8 previous keepers; average private-sale valuation is £1,000. Based on 21 look-ups across 12 VINs, these figures are indicative, not a guarantee. Against small crossovers, the RAV4 stands out for its practical cabin, straightforward character and go-anywhere image, though its age and mileage call for thorough checks.
