What things have gone wrong with the car?

I bought the car 8 months ago, it has now covered 92,000 miles, of which I have added 9,000, uses no oil or anything else between services.

General comments?

Must be driven hard to get the best performance, as it really kicks in at 3500rpm, limiter is at 8250rpm, apart from CRX and VTS, all 1.6's watch out. Yes that includes XR2i's, 205's, and all GTE's (I feel sorry for people I have raced and who have lost - NOT!)

This car is a very underrated hot hatch!

I have recently restored my Corolla GTI 16 V. The car was the first one in the country of the Mk2 version, bought in 1988 by my mum from a Toyota dealership in Nelson, Lancashire, UK. The car has now been fully restored and is in fantastic condition, 0-60 sub in 7 seconds due to a few slight modifications. It blows most hot hatches off the road and at 14 years old it's the best little car I've had so far. I was going to buy the new Mini, but for now the Corolla stays!
