1976 Toyota Corona SE review from Australia and New Zealand
"A great goer with plenty of punch"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It's got a lot of rust.
General comments?
I am happy with my Corona 2000. I bought it in 1989 and don't regret it.
It's a good car with a bit of pizazz and some get up and go when you need it. The radio is great, except it only has an AM function and no tapedeck. I'm thinking of having an extra speaker put in so I can have stereo sound.
Interior is nice brown vinyl-easy to clean.
No aircon. makes it a bit hot in Sydney summertime, but turn on the fan and you're right.
