2001 Toyota Corolla LX review from Singapore
"A good family sedan"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Knocking sound from within the car barely 2 weeks upon collection. Disappeared after a few weeks.
Currently, there is some ticking sound coming from the front of the car especially when I am braking. I think it's the thermostat switch. Might have to send it in for a closer inspection.
Poor cornering performance.
General comments?
It's pretty quick off the line at the traffic lights. Beats the taxis easily.
High seating position for the rear passengers is good.
