08 GSU45R is smaller than GSU40R ??

[YeahA]

hi guys,

me and my wife is plan on buying a 08 model Kluger, and i am when on and check the car spec.

and i find on carsales' compare page says the Width of GSU40R is 1910 mm and the GSU45R is 1825mm??

are they really difference in size? or just someone in carsales finger twist?

the toyota site is all with new model spec so i don't know if the 08 model is any difference.

please let me know if you have a GSU45R, thank you.

by the way., is the 3rd row seat good for adults?

If you look on a different website like CarBuddy you'll see they are the same (1910 mm).

The rear seat is okay for two not-too-large adults on a short trip. A while ago I did a 1 hour trip with two adults right in the back and they were glad to get out at the end!

I am 6 foot and have travelled in the rear, the hardst part is getting in and out, but not bad there as the 2nd row can move forward to provide a little extra knee space.

We believe it is better than cx9 anyway.

The size are the same, i would go awd rather than front only. If your wanting an 08 model alot will come out of lease soon. I know mine is:) Not sure whethr to release or sell and get new car...

If it is a 08 model, make sure you check the steering. My 08 model comes out of 3-yr warranty soon and I just got the intermediate steering column replaced under warranty because it starting making "clunking" noises over the last month or two.

See these threads:

intermediate steering shaft 'clunk'

Clunking from front end

we had that done after a trip to tassie, plus we got 5 yr warranty...
