Voltz sighted in Ireland

Post by 6slinger »

My mother-in-law just came back from Ireland and she was showing my wife and I some pictures of her trip. One of the first places she took a picture of was of the greenery in front of their hotel in Ennis and in it is a red Toyota Voltz.

Hmm, I guess that makes sense, considering it's a RH drive car. I thought that they were only selling the Voltz in Japan, though. I think I'll do some surfin' for Ireland & Voltz!I like looking at the pictures on the Voltz website, but all the text is in Japanese, which I can't understand. Maybe an Irish site has the info in English?!? Update: well, I looked on Toyota's Irish website ( http://www.toyota.ie ) and couldn't find the Voltz. The closest is something called a Avensis Verso, a 6 seater that looks the most similar to the Vibe/Voltz/Matrix. It looks like instead of having a rear-cargo area, they've added a row of 3 seats.

I thought that the Verso was only available in certain countries in mainland Europe.

Wow, here's a post that's been brought back from the grave!Anyway, as requested, the Toyota Avensis Verso (7 passenger!). The Corolla Verso pics are on flash, and I don't feel like figuring out how to get jpgs out of it, so here's a link http://www.toyota.ie/corollaverso/index.html

Hmm, looks like an elongated Vibe with a Toyota front end and Honda headlights.
