1997 Toyota Tercel CE review from North America
"It's a great economical, reliable vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The brake fluid lines seem to be flimsy, and have ruptured a few times in the past year.
General comments?
I love this car; It's incredibly, insanely reliable, and it won't leave me with a hole in my wallet after buying gasoline. It is better for the environment and absolutely adorable.
