1987 Toyota Corolla CS review from Australia and New Zealand
"An excellent car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I first got my car there was nothing wrong with it, but I had to replace my battery after 1 month due to my 2 subs in the back.
It also crunches gears when going from 1st to 2nd, but I think that's because of the way I used to drive it.
General comments?
It has a lot of room on the inside. I'm 6'3 and I have no problems at all.
It is very reliable and runs on the smell of an oily rag.
