1986 Toyota Celica GT review from North America
"A reliable, good quality, sporty car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Normal repairs for a car of its age, such as battery, struts, brakes, and timing belt.
Oil leak, valve seals, and coolant leak were costly repairs to make but reasonable for its age.
General comments?
The Celica has been a reliable car which has started every day for the last 6 years.
It is sporty and has good performance.
I have a 2 door lift-back and it is very small.
