1994 Toyota Carina GLI review from UK and Ireland
"This car is the most reliable car I have ever owned it just never lets me down"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Battery failed after 2years.
The radiator had to be replaced due to corrosion at the end of 2004.
General comments?
I have never looked after it since I bought it in 1994 in fact I seldom wash it yet there is no corrosion, even round all its various scratches.
It has never had a service by a dealer just annual oil change and the spark plugs have never even been taken out since I have owned it in over 10 years.
It is still on the original exhaust system and still on its original brake discs.
