As it has a keyless start - you press the Power Button to switch it on - when I pressed the button nothing happened so I assumed that either I had done something wrong or the car was faulty. I asked the guys at Bridgend Eco Centre in Irvine what I had done wrong and they said "Nothing, remember it is silent" Doh! So I had expected it to roar into life but it is completely silent! A little strange to begin with but getting used to it now.
I took it to the petrol station to put some fuel in the petrol tank as back up and £20 worth of petrol made the tank 3/4 full! Wow! And from the three days of driving about the needle has hardly gone down.
I am impressed with the quickness of the Toyota. When you accelerate it really reacts quickly and has a fast turn of speed when overtaking (which kicks you into the petrol engine) or accelerating from traffic lights etc.
Am also impressed with the in car entertainment system powered by Toyota Touch which linked to my phones Bluetooth easily. I can get email alerts on the large touchscreen as well as playing Spotify Playlists and podcasts from my phone.
Keep looking out for my blog posts and if you see me on the road give me a wave although with the silence of the Toyota you might not hear me!
