A rare and sought after 3-door Toyota RAV4 Granite special edition with the 2. 0 litre D4-D engine, finished in duo tone Salsa Red Pearl and Pewter.
The Granite edition features a CD changer, air conditioning, chrome side bars, chrome effect rear lamp surrounds, fitted fabric floor mats, rear top spoiler, rear privacy glass and distinctive 17-inch Toyota Team Europe alloy wheels. Approximately 500 Granite diesels were sold in the UK and very few of these were diesel-powered. GP05WYV also features genuine Toyota lockable roof bars and ski clamps.
A useful feature of this car is that the rear seats not only fold individually to provide a flexible load and seating arrangement, they also slide backwards and forwards to vary the loadspace and legroom. If necessary, they can be removed completely within seconds to create space for carrying large items.
The bodywork is in excellent condition for the age and mileage, with just a few minor scratches, most of which have been touched in by previous owners. No rust is evident around the wheel arches or door bottoms. The interior is also in excellent condition: this car has clearly been cared for by previous owners.
Matching Continental tyres are fitted all round and the alloy wheels are in very good condition.
The air conditioning is in full working order.
Some service history comes with the car: a major service was carried out in 2021 at 121, 000 miles including timing belt, auxiliary belts and all fluids and filters. One more oil change has taken place since then. New brake discs and pads have also been fitted all round within the last three years.
The MoT is valid until the end of October 2024 and the online MoT history shows that no major repairs have been needed from one year to the next: another indication of a car that has been well cared for.
