TOYOTA RUKUS REVIEW
It comes billed as a funky urban runabout. Toyota’s Rukus is a hip ‘two box’ fashion statement aimed squarely at younger buyers.
Individuality is the key. Priced between the Corolla and the Camry, the Rukus

This baby is a beast! 2.4 litre hotty. Powers up the hills of south gippsland with ease and has an awesome sports shift auto so you can relive your old manual days if you are feeling nostalgic.
There's enough room in the back with the seats down to fit pretty much anything! We put our large dog cage in the back for our other little darling and it fits easy pie! He also gives this car 2 paws up! Sunroof on the build 3 is a nice touch and leather interior that still makes this old girl smell like new!
Some people don't like the appearance but i think she looks bad ass... Black Betty...
Handles smooth as silk wearing silk... the dash is lit up and digital which i prefer and there is a kick arse sound system. My only negative is that their are no cameras on this model... might be on newer ones.
There isn't automatic windscreen wipers or lights... but who needs that anyway...who can't be bothered pushing or turning a knob...
Passangers both in the front and back get a lot of room to stretch out... plus arm rest in the middle with beer holders...or wine...or mixed beverage... you can pull out the middle consol lid in the front to make a nice arm rest as well.... you are basically driving around in your lounge chair... sweet.....
Toyotas are always comfortable and smooth... but this one has nearly no flaws.
I don't believe these cars are very popular.. and you don't see many on the road.. clearly there's a lack of awesome people on the road..plus i don't believe they are being imported anymore... read into that what you will... if you are looking for an awesome ride where you slide into the seat... no bending required... and comfort is important... also standard 7 speaker sterio system that turns your wheels into a roller disco! This is the car for you! Be bold .. be different... be wise....be the envy of all your friends! (That have no car)
Drive.... and you will buy.... you know your life was nothing before this baby came along.
