1989 Toyota Cressida MX83 review from Australia and New Zealand

"Quick, Powerful and Stylish"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

When I first bought the car it had hard steering, but I figured out that the power steering fluid was low.

I put more fluid in it and now it is fine.

General comments?

The Cressida's performance amazed me so much when I first approached the cressidas I wanted something that would be quicker than a vl commodore and something that looked stylish and handle really well.

The Car is in mint condition and drives incredibly well.

When the Cressida first came out it was light years ahead of any other Japanese and Australian car on the market.

The engine in my car is the second engine which does not bother me because the original engine was replaced at about 89000 Ks and the motor that it was replaced by was imported from japan.

The reason that the other motor blew up was because the previous owner from new never used to drive it more than 8 kilometers 95 percent of the time he owned it as he was old he used it just to go to the bowls club and back so if you drive short distances it resolves in serious engine damage.

I love my car and I am grateful that I was able to buy the car off an old man that cared about his car.
