1982 Toyota Cressida RX60 review from Malaysia
"CRESSIDA - Power, performance and prestige"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Aircond not working because the piping leaks.
Power steering fluid and oil from sump leaks (my fault, didn't change the gaskets)
Rear windscreen heater didn't work.
General comments?
For a 20 year old car, it is still a great car to drive and the engine felt very eager to be pushed hard. No problems to smoke past newer cars. My car does it with style.
Reliability factor - 5 star!
The steering is light as a feather and sharp too. Very predictable. But as a AT 3-speeder with no overdrive, highway cruising is not as relaxed compared to town driving. Great for hill climbing.
