1982 Toyota Tercel sr5 review from North America
"My 1983 Tercel 4x4 station wagon may be the best automobile ever offered to the public"
General comments?
I retired the car after 20 years with 294,000 miles on the odometer and the original clutch intact. There was never an engine or drive train problem, nor was there ever a time it would not start. I did all the necessary maintenance myself. I installed a rebuilt engine and new clutch two years ago. I drive it yet.
