Used Toyota Camry for sale in Europe

About the Toyota Camry

The Toyota Camry is a mid-size saloon that Toyota has built since the early 1980s. It suits drivers who want a roomy, quiet four-door for motorway miles and family use, rather than a compact or sporty car. Availability in Europe has varied by generation, so the cars you find come from several different eras.

Older Camrys were mostly petrol, with a diesel in some European markets and LPG conversions on some used cars. The newer generations pair a 2.5-litre petrol engine with a hybrid system and an automatic gearbox. The body is a four-door saloon throughout, with an estate offered only on some older generations.

Listings range from early 1990s cars to current models. Older examples are usually cheap to buy and depend heavily on their service history and condition. Cars from 2019 onwards are generally hybrids and are the ones most buyers cross-shop with other recent mid-size saloons.

What to check when buying a used Toyota Camry

Ask for the full service history and inspect the car in daylight, then take a test drive that includes a cold start. Compare the odometer reading with service and inspection records, especially on cars imported from another country.

• Hybrid system health · Hybrid (XV50 onwards)

  Ask for a diagnostic scan of the hybrid system and check for warning lights. Look for records of hybrid battery and inverter cooling maintenance. Confirm the car shifts smoothly and the engine starts and stops without hesitation.

• 12-volt battery condition · Hybrid (XV50 onwards)

  A weak 12-volt battery can cause warning lights or a car that will not start, even when the hybrid battery is fine. Check the battery age and look for any record of replacement.

• Oil level and consumption · 2.4-litre petrol (XV30, XV40)

  Owners often discuss oil consumption on some older 2.4-litre petrol engines. Check the oil level and colour, ask how often it is topped up, and look for leaks or blue smoke on start-up and under load.

• Diesel engine records · Diesel

  On diesel versions, check for regular oil changes and any record of head gasket, injector or turbo work. Watch for coolant loss, white smoke or rough running, and make sure the engine reaches normal temperature.

• LPG installation papers · LPG conversions

  Many LPG cars are aftermarket conversions. Ask for the installer's paperwork and the tank's inspection or expiry date, and check the system for leaks. Ask whether the car has been serviced by a specialist and whether the LPG and petrol modes both run smoothly.

• Rust and underbody · Older generations

  On cars from the 1990s and 2000s, inspect the sills, wheel arches, door bottoms, boot floor and underbody for corrosion. Check the brake lines and suspension mounts. Surface rust is easier to deal with than structural corrosion.

• Automatic gearbox behaviour

  On a test drive, check that gear changes are smooth, with no slipping, flaring or harsh shifts. Ask whether the automatic gearbox fluid has been changed, and when. Warning lights or a jerky pull-away are worth investigating before purchase.
