In the 12 months I have had the car I had to replace the flange gasket on the exhaust,
I also had to replace the brake booster, but that's about it.
Clutch and Gearbox are perfect.
It's a great first car as they are good on fuel, but rust does eventually get the better of them.
They don't go too bad as the will rev out and push the little car along.
You still see heaps of other mint ones out there today so it just goes to show how reliable Toyota's are.
You goota love the little corollas, I live in australia, and have a 76 ke30 rolla, and I'm only the second owner. it's done under 200,000 kilometres, never had a problem. its great around town, but being a two speed auto, it tends to run out of breath around 130kp/h, or about 75-80mph.
