Its silky smooth and there's power when you need it! Had a gas conversion fitted, and overall very pleased with it. Mine is a G edition. It has no sunroofs, so no risk of leaks! Also has the velour seats, which we prefer to leather which can be cold or hot, depending on the weather. It is a 7 seater, and most passengers are impressed with the middle seats. Hope this helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldtar Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Hello Jig, I have a 2009 Vellfire 2.5 and find it fine. The chain driven 2.5 engine has enough pull for me and gets around smoothly without any problems. Obviously does not pull as quickly as the 3.5 would and will probably be a bit slower up hill, loaded up with the camping gear. Consumption is decent getting about 9.8km/l average on mostly shorter runs. I hope this helps. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
