Question 1

Is there a Toyota hybrid with a manual gearbox?

Accepted Answer

No. Toyota's full hybrids, from the Yaris to the RAV4, all use an e-CVT automatic transmission. A manual Toyota is always a petrol or diesel model.

Question 2

Is a manual Toyota Aygo or Yaris good for city driving?

Accepted Answer

Yes, both are light, short and simple, and their small petrol engines are cheap to run. The Aygo shares its platform with the Citroën C1 and Peugeot 108, so parts are easy to find.

Question 3

What should I check on a manual Toyota with the 1.4 D-4D?

Accepted Answer

Check how the car starts and idles and ask whether the injectors have been replaced, as they are the engine's known weak point. On cars used mostly in town, feel for clutch judder when pulling away.

Question 4

Is a used manual Toyota Hilux a good buy?

Accepted Answer

The Hilux has a reputation for durability, and the manual is the version most often used for work. Check the chassis for rust, the four-wheel-drive engagement and signs of heavy towing or off-road use.
