1991 Toyota Tercel Base review from North America
"Very dependable car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The seats are terrible. They are made of vinyl and are completely ripped to shreds.
Had to replace the water pump at 160000 (150).
Some minor work here and there.
General comments?
This car is very dependable and gets about 40 miles to the gallon.
The backseat is not very roomy.
