1989 Toyota Corolla CSX review from Australia and New Zealand
"It's a great, reliable car that I love and won't sell for a very long time"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The seat belt on the driver's side went all loose for a while, but seems to be normal again.
The auto-choke doesn't work anymore and takes a long time to warm up.
General comments?
It likes to rev a lot.
Also drinks a lot of petrol.
Needs new speakers, as the factory speakers suck.
Handles well, and isn't too slow either.
