well..... been gone in the wilderness for 2&half years after trading in my 08 yaris d4d for a kia sportage and a horsebox.
so today i called into my toyota dealer and found out there is a hybrid version for sale...... toyota marketing people please do your job, i haven't seen any mention of them in tv adverts and discovered it by wandering the showroom. i got a good trade in value for the kia and paperwork will be done tomorrow or monday. i'll have a 2014 reg yaris hybrid next week! great change from kia 40mpg (eu gal) to 80mpg.

kia sportage and a horsebox.

You later mention trading in the Kia Sportage, but nothing more about the horsebox. People have successfully pulled beyond the limit recommended by Toyota, but a horse + trailer :eek::biggrin:.

Imperial Gallon (I assume that is what he is talking about) is 1.2 US Gallons.

That is still ~66mpg which is awesome.

i collect my shiney new hybrid next Tuesday. :-)
(Horsebox is sold and no ..... horse isn't riding shotgun, looking for a 3.5ton horselorry at the moment)
i'll post some photos for you next week. I called into the dealer today and ordered a roof rack and double bicycle carrier. 400euro for those accessories

yes imperial gallons. 4.55litres per gal. :-)
