Toyota RAV4 or Corolla Verso?

Trying to decide between a 2005 Toyota RAV4 and a 2006 Corolla Verso for a family with three kids under seven years of age and a dog. I prefer the SUV style but in practical terms I'm wondering would the Verso be the better option. I wouldn't use the two back seats as I think in the event of a crash they are too close to the rear of the car, but when folded down would provide a spacious boot.

Our answer:

Hi Clive,

I think you'll have to go for the Verso - I doubt that the RAV4 is wide enough across the back seat to take three kids in car seats. Of course, it's always worth trying out just to see, especially if it's the one you'd prefer. Both are good choices though - solid and reliable.
