1986 Toyota Corolla CSX 1.6 carb from Australia and New Zealand
Summary:
So far it cannot be destroyed. I have tried!!
Faults:
In nearly 4 years the only thing that had gone wrong with the car (other than tyres and rego) is one front of the suspension broke. I was not even aware till I had it in the shop getting new tyres put on, and when they took the wheel off, the strut just fell out!! It still drove fine!!
General Comments:
Engine / gearbox / clutch has never been touched. I have had 4 turbo cars since I have owned this car (I use it for daily run about to work).
And I have given this car HELL sometimes trying to thrash it to the point that it will blow up, but it does not.
I only paid $475 for it, and it has been the best car I have ever owned... other than it looks terrible and the colour is bad, and it is scratched... but it just runs so well, and has never given me one problem.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Update on my Corolla - it was hit July 30th while parked in front of my house by a drunk driver - a hit and run.
I was really upset about it. It basically was side swiped; however, it still runs fine. It will not pass inspection until I go to a junk yard to replace the driver's side mirror. I still love the car - I'm just upset that it is no longer in MINT condition. Thank God it happened late at night and no one was injured. I only paid $250 for the car, but I am positive the drunk driver had a much newer car and his cost for repairs will be far greater.
