That’s terrible, didn’t know about it. Thanks for sharing.

Bro, definitely a must in every petrol heads garage.

We can’t be caught sleeping bro. 😂

BMW did great work on the X3, solid offering.

It’s really beautiful.

I was looking forward to bumping into you.

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

😂😂😂 Be careful, you’ll end up buying every car I review.

@maxlodewyk_na These are the types of problems I want.😂

@@tinahaulyondjamba thank you Tina. It’s really beautiful.

@@sncreative6308 it definitely is.

Hey bro, I might not have communicated clearly but it is a hybrid. 😅

A refresh is definitely needed.

It’s such a lovely vehicle bro. For light gravel road, it should be good. Thanks for the support man, just to remind you, I started this channel because you motivated me.

@@tichmupeti Yes, hence why we almost bought it. The only issue I found with it is the fact that you can’t option a sun roof, otherwise, this is an almost perfect SUV for the price and you get everything you need. Just check other reviews and you’ll see, it’s tough to fault this vehicle.

@@shonangava8701 always thankful for the support boet.

It’s really beautiful.

@@josephkangandjera2054 😂😂😂. A Toyota is a Toyota bro.

@@maxlodewyk_na I hope the sound with that six speakers is doing fine.

@@ndlovugeo9661 it’s decent, only when you hit highway speeds that you need to increase your volume.

Yes, that's why. They share the exact same engine.

They must rest now 😂😂😂

Their interiors are really solid.

It’s a pleasure Nick. Yes I forgot about the GR Hilux and as much as I’m not a huge fan of the Hilux, I can’t deny that it’s a solid product and worth its asking price because you know what you’re getting.

They keep stepping up bro. Let’s see how the market responds. It’s definitely good power figures. 🙏🏾

@@maxlodewyk_na 1mill is a lot

I would spend that 1m on either a Ford Ranger Wildtrak or the Toyota Hilux GRS III.

It just keeps running.

Beautiful.

@@H.I.I.T68 thank you for the clarification.

Definitely a beast.

Hi Dzune, I unfortunately do not know.

Yes, as they say some people buy vehicles with their emotions.

Also less oil on smaller engine

@@omarnic2007 true.

This was at the time I did the review. A full tank cost us N$900. With the new fuel price, it took above N$1031.

@@maxlodewyk_na oh its in Namibian dollar...??? I thought it was US dollars and $900 is an equivalent of R15000...

@Pellow_ noooooo, it’s Namibian 😂😂😂.

@@maxlodewyk_na 🤣🤣 it makes sense now...

Hey bro, unfortunately I do not know how that works so I won’t be able to help.

That’s great to know. What was the engine capacity, manual or auto and what was your average speed?

@@maxlodewyk_na it's a 1.6 manual, was just doing 100 - 120 and +120 when I had to overtake, I still have it though, currently in 201 088 km and still moving like new💯 everything functional, nothing replaced but oil change services every 15k km, front shocks once and brake pads 🙌🏾 so I'd say it's a pretty reliable and simple car, love it, my mission is to take it to 510 000 km😎

@@immanuel1954 awesome. I’ll try to match that by strictly doing 120 to see how far I can go. I’ve managed to push it to Oshivelo but that’s doing between 120 - 140 km/h. Yes, these Corollas are really reliable, so far we’ve only done service and replaced brakes as well. Thanks for the detailed feedback, much appreciated.

This is such an encouraging comment. I really love the Corolla XR and hope to get one for a detailed review.

Thank you so much. God bless you

Thanks brother.

Always a pleasure.

Thanks for watching the video and providing me with feedback to improve. Much appreciated.

Yes.

Yes, it is quite thirsty and averages 7.4l/100 but one should take in mind it’s not a small engine, non turbo and the weight of the car. I definitely think the manual will perform better.

Yes, 8 TSI.

This 1.8 is fantastic man, I’m sure the manual handles it better but the convenience of the CVT is great. Yes, the black interior is also my favourite, it’s easy to keep clean.

If you want to move, it doesn’t ask many questions, it just goes. How’s your maintenance been so far?

Does it have a reverse camera?

@@linconymakore2657 yes it does.

Yeah. It stands for continuous variable transmission (a type of automatic gearbox), which in other brands such as Nissan are not reliable at all.

@@maxlodewyk_na had a Nissan Note CVT new shape, it was brand new, drove it for 9 days and the transmission completely died.

That’s so disappointing from Nissan. Their CVTs are really a disappointment.

​@@maxlodewyk_nawhat a nonsense😂 Dsg and cvt are NOT the same thing. if they were they'd have the SAME NAME. Continuous Variable Transmission. = CVT. Direct Shift Gearbox = DSG. come on man, be better. these two things are very different

You either get a manual or automatic transmission. Under the automatic you find various types ie., DSG, CVT, Triptronic, DCT etc, by “same” I meant just like a DSG, CVT is also automatic.
