[i'm the owner of 3 Corolla's cars.
The first is from 1971, as 450.000 KMS, without engine problems.Only replaced
parts like brakes and suspension. I use this car now, for old cars concentrations.
The second, is a Liftback, from 1988, and is in a daily service.I made 165.000 Kms so far, and the car only ask for regular maintenance, and i do it by the book.
The other, is a Corolla Station Wagon, is from 2004, and as 25.000kms.It´s a very good car, and everytime I drive it, i feel that I can trust in this vehicle, to go anywere. It´s very new, to give problems, but I think, and hope it will be a car to last a good couple of years.
After this experiences by those years, (1971-2004), I strogly recommend Toyota vehicles, and for me that´s it! Toyota Forever!
