Toyota Tercel
| | Model of the car: | Toyota Tercel | | | General comments: | If you don't have a lot of cash to spend and want something completely reliable and financially smart - buy a tercel. You can't get them new anymore, but the Echo is basically the same car. Parts do not run that much for them, but are getting harder to find since they are no longer made. | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | Started to burn through oil around 110,000 miles. Had to replace clutch at around 70K miles (first clutch I ever had). Normal wear and tear on brakes. The tape deck crapped out at 40K miles and even though I had the extra warranty (which you should NEVER need with a Toyota) they refused to cover it as it was not a "Toyota" part (says Toyota but actually was a Panasonic). Also, dealerships will rob you for repairs on these. | | | Previous car: | I'd love to get the Echo but they are too small and I have outgrown the Tercel. Gas mileage is terrific and handling in snow unbelievable. I love(d) this car. Too bad she is going off to a new family when the Jeep Cherokee comes next week...... |
