1990 Toyota Corolla 1.3 GL review from UK and Ireland
"Find a nice one and you're on a winner!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing so far!...only had it 3 weeks!
General comments?
This is my 4th Corolla, I purchased it from a local auction. The car was a part exchange from the local Toyota dealer and I have bought quite a few from them in the past and all have been excellent!. The car is a 1.3 gl 3 door, 95000 miles with full dealer service history and was one owner from new.The other Corollas I have had can't compete with this one, it's like new!,faultless!
The car has been maintained to the letter and I can't see any reason for it breaking down in the future.
The car has had a small fortune spent on it recently, a genuine full toyota exhaust system battery, rsdiator, starter,new tyres etc etc..a. credit to its first owner.
It's a pleasure to drive and years ahead in the way it drives... I drove my neighbours 3 month old Megane today and couldn't wait to give back to him!!
All in all, if you can find a nice, rust free example that has been looked after like this you will not go wrong!,all you have to do is look after it and stick to the service schedule and it will go for ever. The best thing is the price...200 quid all in!!...motoring on the cheap doesn't come better than this!
