 waxworks's recommendation | |
Bought my Toyota Corolla GTi-16 Twin cam 3 years ago in metallic grey at 126 since she covered 162, cars and absolute joy to drive. Drove an A3 1.8 T the other day 150bhp..but not even close to the twinnie for sheer driving experience - no turbo lag here!
Expenses in 3 years; replacement radiator, exhaust, leaking oil...minor costs; break lights keep getting knocked out!
No problems with car picking up speed 0-60ish very good, not as rapid after. Losing speed is a problem, breaks could definitely be better. My clutch is very hard to press been like this since purchase, drove mates twinnie - exact opposite so my be just unique to mine! parts on the pricey side.
At the moment I'm looking for set of front wings on the cheap because they rusted. I may spray it black with black tints. All in all, you'll definitely get more than what you pay for - absolute gem; I'm driving mine into the ground! Rare to find maybe too many people like me out there. I'm not willing to sell!! Oh don't worry about flogging the thing; I've had people stop me to make offers!!
