Faults:

Bought this car without roadworthy because it seemed to be in mint condition.

After taking to my mechanic, he found that the air con no longer worked, needs full replacement.

It's leaking power steering oil; another full replacement needed.

The muffler had a hole rusted through it, and the previous owner had cut through the metal framework of the car to install the rear speakers, which required patching up work.

Boot latch does not work either.

General Comments:

Handles superbly, better than any late model Toyota or Ford, despite being 22 years old.

The 4WS makes parking so easy, and it's a great feature to show off to friends; they were amazed when I first showed them how the back wheels also turn.

Inside is quite small, and I feel very sorry for people that sit in the back seat.

The actual hand brake lever is quite large, which means that there is no centre glove compartment.

Faults:

So far I've had trouble with the air conditioning, it seems to work randomly.

Also the front and rear lower ball joints have been replaced.

The front brake lines perished and the clutch hose as well.

And the rust has been pretty bad patches around all windows and around the doors.

General Comments:

The car however has been a joy to drive with the exception of the faults, I have really enjoyed the 4WS and the smooth ride it provides.

Now that I have replaced all the faulty parts, I really do not like driving my new Toyota Celica, I leave that to the wife!
