My new Yaris D-4D (The Netherlands)

[Bredayaris]

Hi fellow Yaris drivers.
I'm Christian from Breda, The Netherlands.

I already had a Toyota Yaris 1.3 vvti Linea Sol but because of the distance of my work and the high cost of petrol here in Holland i have bought a Yaris diesel.

The car is faster then the 1.3 vvti version, way better fuel economy, and much more quiet on the highway.

Here you can see pics of my new and old Yaris (the old Yaris is from my boyfriend now :wink: ):

WELCOME OT THE FORUSM@Q!~~~
(welcome to the forums)

[Thotprawsis]

Very nice!

[leasaunce]

WOW! i never knew they've got the Diesel engine on the Yaris! :smile: great buy!

[driver centric]

Wow, diesel Yaris, pretty sweet!

[Violin]

What kind of fuel economy does that get?

[Bredayaris]

Last time it used 5.6l/100 km, that's 42 mpg.
But i had a lot of city trips and i had driven 93 mph on the highway.

Previous trip it had used 5l/100km, that's 47 mpg.
At that time i've driven 80.8 mph on the highway and a few citytrips.

I always use my airco.

That's a lot better than what I get

[Bredayaris]

For the record:

Here's a bad quality video made with my phone; i was accelerating normal in 5th gear from 119km/h to 147 km/h (74 mph to 91 mph):

[Bredayaris]

I've made a few video's. One of them is made today with my new cellphone.

Here are the links to the video's:

At night, acceleration in 4th gear (3/4 throttle) from 90 - 130 km/h. (Samsung U600 cellphone)

This was made nearby my hometown Breda at a Dutch highway a few minutes after the previous video:

Driving in Luxemburg at april 2008.
Wet snow was falling at the time.
My boyfriend was driving a little bit too fast in a hairpin, that's why you can hear my 'oehaa' sound.. :

A little trip from Luxembourg city to Bollendorf:

Starting the little diesel engine, it had echo noise because it was between two houses and a carport:

And a running D-4D engine:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PPuSDUvyaI

And finally i used my new cellphone Nokia N95 8 GB to film the exhaust sound from the Yaris:

Nice Ride!

Mooie bak hoor, al is een diesel niet mijn ding.(rijd natuurlijk wel lekker vlot door.
Hier wat foto's van mij Yaris http://www.mijnalbum.nl/Album=JY4DTRGT

[PETERPOOP]

Wait, you're gay?

[Slitwrist Smile]

^^ lol, thats what I was thinking? :)

[Stargate YARlantIS]

nice

[Stargate YARlantIS]

I spy a Blazin Blue Yaris in the background of the 2nd pic too....

[lita_g]

Very nice ride. Wish they had the yaris diesel here in America.

[Bredayaris]

@ Burningbjorn

Diesel was in eerste instantie ook niet echt mijn ding maar het is alleszins meegevallen!
Ik moet veel km's maken dus daarom heb ik die diesel ook.

Mijn vriend heeft mijn vorige Yaris 1.3 vvti welke sneller is dan de nieuwe Yaris 1.3 vvti ook al spreken de fabrieksspecificaties dat tegen.
Zijn broer en opa hebben beide de 1300 maar je neemt duidelijk verschil waar.

Jouw Yaris heeft echt een super kleur zeg, mooie foto's ook!
Maar jouw velgen vind ik helemaal top; mooie lm velgen mis ik nog op mijn Yaris.

@ Peterpoop

Yes i am; something wrong with that?

@ Stargate Yarlantis

That's correct. My boyfriend his grandfather has a Yaris too and his brother too.

My father died 3 weeks ago and he had a Yaris too.
The only good news is that my brothers girlfriend is going to get that Yaris :smile:

@ lita g

Thanks i'm proud if it.

[slothman86]

Thanks for sharing! A great place for the GPS device is the small window on the door! It's perfect.

[PETERPOOP]

@ Peterpoop

Umm. Do what you like.

[Bredayaris]

Umm. Do what you like.

Now that's a great answer; it's nothing what i do but what i am...

[PETERPOOP]

It's not what you are but who you do.

[Latka]

Wait, you're gay?

Sounds like he already has a boyfriend, so you're out of luck. :iono: Seriously though - who cares? If it's not your thing...don't do it.

Nice Yaris. I'm surprised they didn't offer it in Dutchie Orange! hahah... if they did, 99.99% of them would be orange!

[Bredayaris]

@ Latka

Thanks!

Great you know something about my little country!

I'm glad living in the Netherlands; here it is possible to mary with the same gender (wich i'm going to do next year without living parents unfortunately), we don't have a president who says ''god bless you'' and so on.

It's not what you are but who you do.

That's a great insult. If you knew what great difficulties i had and all other people with the same ''problem'' you wont be saying that..

[PETERPOOP]

Dude I don't care if you're gay, straight, or into beasteality. Enjoy life! Just consider yourself lucky you're not in america! Soon our doom will come!

[JnC]

How is the passing time in top gear (no downshift) for 80 to 110 km/hr?

(roughly 50-70 mph in the states)

I didn't measure that but i saw a test and that showed 80-120 km/h in 12 seconds (5th gear).

The 1.8 vvti TS did that same 80-120 km/h in 11.2 seconds in 5 th gear.

The 1.3 vvti did it in 16.2 seconds.

I wish i had a Auris or Avensis with the 2.2 D-4D d-cat engine; 7.7 seconds from 80-120 km/h :wink:

[alby_yaris]

very nice

[aldo_yn]

Very nice ride. Wish they had the yaris diesel here in America.

yeah me too..

i wish toyota launch the yaris d4d in indonesia..

what is your mpg?

[Greytimberwolf68]

Dang You Europeans!!!!! for having a Diesel version Dang you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Latka]

Diesel would be sweet. Had a buddy with a '79 Rabbit diesel - man we drove that sucker all over So Cal on one tank of gas. :) I think diesel is still over $4 a gallon though here. blech. :(

A Yaris in "Dutchie Orange" would be sweet though!

[drummerboy2004]

I am very jealous... I would have bought that car if they sold it here. Mine is the exact color and car... same minus the Diesel engine. I bet you can get 75 MPG in that thing if you treat it right. Oh, and way to go :thumbsup:... there is absolutely nothing wrong with being gay. I am not, but think everyone should have the same opportunities in this world, regardless of any differences. Once again, you have a badass car on your hands.
