1986 Toyota Corolla CS Seca review from Australia and New Zealand
"The best, most reliable little car ever, I highly recommend as a first car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
CV joints wore out 200, 000km
Heating coil wore out at 200, 000km
Muffler replaced at 200, 000km
One Real Wheel Cylinder Replaced 200, 000km.
General comments?
Extremely Reliable, just went and went and went
My first car, will be a Corolla fan for years to come
Awesome little gearbox
Very Economical
No A/C made it tough to drive in summer, but otherwise very comfortable
Easy steering (no power)
40/45ltr Fuel tank, easy 500-600km/tank
Fantastic Resale value.
