1991 Toyota Corolla LS review from North America
"Best value for the money. A very nice and extremely reliable car. You just can't go wrong with it!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced shocks and struts at 2400000km which is not bad at all if you consider the road conditions in Manitoba.
Did some rust removal (a very common problem on older Corollas)
General comments?
I had a Corolla for 2 years and I really loved it. Its definitely the best car in its class. It looks nice and drives even better. The interior is very well made, roomy and very comfortable. No rattling noises anywhere. The engine is very strong for its size (with manual transmission) but still very economical. It doesn't have the best handling (not nearly), but its by all means not a sports car, and that's what you should keep in mind. The power steering is light and feels very good. The best thing about the Corolla is it's reliability. A Corolla will last forever if you maintain it correctly. I would've probably never sold it if I hadn't crashed it.
