1991 Toyota Carina 1 review from UK and Ireland
"I love this car so much I can't bear to sell it, so I am giving it away to a close friend"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Battery was changed for £49 at about 97,000 miles.
Radiator has been changed twice because of rust.
Silencer has also been changed twice because of rust.
General comments?
This car is very reliable and never let me down in all of nine years.
I was always able to set on long journeys at short notice without worries.
No matter how cold, the car will always start.
It is a roomy family car.
It has maintained very good fuel economy even now.
The driver's seat is not very comfortable on long journeys.
The suspension is simply fabulous
