toyota Corolla Saloon Road Test Reports and Car Reviews

Toyota Corolla Saloon 1992

1500 cc low mileage, 40,000, tidy and service history, should be reliable and economical, but first problem was the auto that would sometimes select neutral in a corner or roundabout and leave one coasting for a bit, not only potentially dangerous but also very annoying as you never knew when it would happen, it was fixed ok by local dealer but was still inconsistent when accelerating and would kick down too late when you needed it and change down unnecessary when accelerating gently. Other problems included unreliable central locking and electric windows, The cam belt cost a small fortune to replace, also economy nowhere near my older 2 litre Montego, which I had bought at slightly higher mileage and sold still going well at 120000 miles, I now have a 318Ti BMW, and like the Montego it is comfortable and I don’t get Toyota back ache on a trip, it handles and performs well and the economy is good, so far, well over a year it has cost very little to run, and no problems at all.
