1999 Toyota Tercel review from Saudi Arabia
"An excellent economical little car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing major.
The usual changing of brake pads.
General comments?
A very reliable four door little car.
Excellent gas consumption. As a Canadian working in Saudi Arabia, I pay about 8 Dollars to fill it up and it drives between 450 and 500 Kilometers.
Consumes more gas when AC is on, but still Drives between 420 and 460 Kilometers.
Very good acceleration when AC is off.
Small seats, but fun to drive.
I believe that if you keep doing the regular maintenance for it like changing oil and tune up it can last forever.
