Toyota Corolla Hatchback 1992-

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Good value for excellent engineering. The car is very reliable and not too costly on service.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    In comparison to other makes, it is a costly purchase, included in a high insurance group. Worth the return in reliability.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very easy to drive, although power steering feels flighty on slippery roads. No struggle to steer at all.

    Performance

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Could do with more torque. Takes a while to wind up, but goes well once it is going. Needs room for overtaking, but handles well through corners.

    Reliability

    I have had mine for 18 months and it has not let me down so far.

    I have added alloy wheels and lowered it by 60mm - works well with the Amythist colour.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Slight back ache after too many hours, but foot rest next to clutch is great for an improved position.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    Not great when it comes to insurance. Cat 1 alarm and immobiliser helps with quotes.
