Summary
Although it is not common on Ugandan roads, the Toyota Isis is loved by some motorists for its multipurpose abilities, writes

I have owned the Toyota Isis for approximately 18 months. I initially bought it as a family car, a purpose it still serves, although it has lately turned into a tourist car. I run a tour company and when I have failed to get a car for hire to transport clients or when those on the market become costly to hire, I turn to my Isis.
The car is designed to carry seven passengers, including the driver, but when the occupants are of average sizes, it can carry up to eight or nine passengers with ease since it has two foldable seats in the trunk that can cater for two more passengers or luggage. For instance, I normally pick clients from the airport who travel with big suitcases and I do not have to hire another car for luggage.
