1986 Toyota Tercel SR5 4x4 Wagon review from North America
"Best utility econo car ever"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
CV axle broke, breaking trans-axle in the process.
Burns a small amount of oil.
General comments?
Although this car is a bit underpowered, I've really learned to love this car. It handles highways speeds well.
I love the multi-adjustable driver's seat, and haven't heard any complaints from my passengers.
Some body rust around the wheel wells.
