1987 Toyota Tercel DL hatchback review from North America
"A good little car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Weak clutch gave up the ghost at 30000 kilometers.
Hard to start in cold weather.
Manual transmission extemely stiff and difficult to shift in cold weather.
General comments?
This certainly was a reliable and solid little car while I had it.
