1983 Toyota Tercel Wagon 4WD SR5 review from North America
"A born rally car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I got a new exhaust system when I bought it.
Front axle right after.
New tires at 310000km
1st gear syncros just went at 320000
Front fender rust like any other old Toyota.
General comments?
I am a big fellow and I am always comfortable and impressed by the performance.
Big cabin for people and cargo.
I rally this car and love the handling in 4WD on fast gravel roads.
