We bought a 2009 KXR model Kluger when we found out about the twins and we love love love love it! Its so nice to drive, and spacious and flexible in terms of seating arrangements and a/c temperatures and stuff, it has the reversing camera (which I admittedly rely on a bit too much!), and it even has this wee mirror you can flip down so you can see the entire backseat and whats going on! It really is the perfect family car. Plus its big enough without being cumbersome to drive like a Land Cruiser or Patrol. It can be a bit thirsty around town but on the open road its really fuel efficient for a 3.5L. I don't know what the 2008 model is like exactly but I can't imagine it being too different to ours.

I wouldn't trade it for the world and will drive it to the death! I hope you love it and put down that deposit, I'm excited for you
