Toyota Avensis, 2008, Vaasa

For sale: Toyota Avensis, the Chuck Norris of Finnish roads. The odometer already shows 355,000 kilometres, but as Toyota owners say, with these the number says more about experience than age. This one has seen motorways, village roads, cottage roads and probably a few roads that officially do not exist.

- Radio works
- Air conditioning works
- Buttons and switches work
- Clutch feels to be working
- Moves forward under its own power and does not require a tow rope
- No warning lights on the dashboard
- Nearly half a tank of fuel included, which these days is almost the best extra equipment money can buy

Note: when starting, it coughs a little and seems to ponder the big questions in life, but eventually starts and sets off like an old workhorse. The brake vibrates a little strangely when braking at very low speeds. The car politely reminds you that stopping is in progress. At idle there is some knocking, rattling and other diesel music. The Avensis does not like silence, but wants to keep the driver company even when standing still. The summer tyres need replacing. They have done a long working life on Finnish roads and are already waiting for their well-earned retirement. The body has a few dents and scratches, as seen in the pictures.

So the car is no longer in showroom condition, but on the other hand you do not have to worry about the first supermarket car park door anymore. In use, however, the car seems to work quite properly and goes where the steering wheel is turned. This is not a collector car kept in a glass display case, but an honest everyday car for the next owner. There are still many kilometres left in this one for someone who values affordable mobility more than the smell of a new car.
