1969 Toyota Corolla review from Australia and New Zealand
"A bloody good buy for 50 bucks (AU)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brakes were left with no fluid.
Brake linings were worn to nothing.
Oil light faulty.
Radiator is in constant need of flushing. I wouldn't go on a big drive in it.
Rust spots appearing all over, but what do you expect for 32 year old paint.
General comments?
This car will not beat anything off the line, but is the best car you will ever purchase.
