1997 Toyota Paseo review from Australia and New Zealand
"I'm glad I bought it, it is everything I wanted in a car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong since I bought it. The door open warning noise comes on whether the key is in the ignition or removed. It was doing that when I bought it.
General comments?
The car looks very stylish for it's age.
It is comfortable to drive with plenty of room in the front. Rear seats have limited headroom.
It's not a car for winning drag races at traffic lights but it is respectable for a 1.5L.
At 18 kilometers per litre of fuel the economy is impressive.
