Immobiliser prevented me from starting on occasions, problem solved by recovery breakdown! Otherwise 6 years of troublefree motoring.
Likes it's petrol a lot, road noise a problem, but goes like hotsnot! No major tech problems with only 42,000 miles covered in 6 years. Toyota dealers very expensive, routine servicing can be done by competent DIY person, though some things best left to Toyota. Good secondhand buy.
Good vehicle, but drinks (20mpg town and 47 highway).
Best dealers are the ones which help you/ look at car straight away. E.G. ask mechanic to check brake wear or something.
I think toyota carinas are very good looking cars
especiaqlly the saloon executive very little things go wrong an excellent car in my opinion.
I partly agree with the petrol consumption. I took my car to a national car servicing network who performed the fuel system treatment. This has made a substantial difference. For £20 I would recommend this highly.
