That's one hell of a fleet. Not surprising that most are Toyotas.

The Fusion was one of my favourites when it was on sale in India. Excellent 1.6L petrol and 1.4L diesel engines and fine handling.

The Zen has received much love here on Team-BHP and become something of a cult classic.

As you see from this paragraph (for instance), most of your post consists of excessive dots (.........). Kindly avoid typing like this. It just makes it lighter on the reader's eyes.

See you on the forum.
