2004 Toyota Celica Premium review from UK and Ireland
"Very nice car to drive on the open road"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have only had the car 2.5 weeks and nothing has gone wrong yet.
General comments?
I have hankered after a Celica for a while now and with the family grown up and away, loads of space wasn't a necessity.
I love the looks of the car. The performance is good and the interior fine.
Only things I am still getting used to are the rather stiff gear change, but I reckon I'm lazy on the clutch and not pushing it right down. Other thing which is a bit more disconcerting is a tendency for the steering to wander over certain surfaces. It is superb on smooth roads and my local race track (oops!) I haven't really had time to check this problem out, but reckon it may be overinflated tyres or the front wheels out of alignment. Other than that I really like the car. I find it more roomy than expected.
