Most Reliable Car Owned for Ten Years

I currently still own this most reliable car. Great round town and has never let me down. It's comfortable, though not peppy. I want a bigger boot space, that goes through to the front seats as some cars feature, for carrying longer articles. This car is so reliable, a great workhorse, borrowed by the family for towing and it has never needed more than basic maintenance . I'm reluctant to part with it, though I would like a more modern car. This is a Toyota that feels like it will go on forever.

What i love the most with this car is, it passes the smog check with flying colors. Being an old car, i am impressed. Freeway performance is great.

Simply amazing

I purchased the car from my neighbor years ago. He had it in really good condition mechanically and boy oh boy I love it. I use to drive a 04 c230 kompressor and while I lobe that car, this car never broke down on me. Mind you my corolla now has a little over 267k and STILL getting somewhere around 38+mpg on the highway. I recently did the seafoam for the throttle body, oil change, new oil filter, new NGK spark plugs, purple power degreaser engine bay wash, and a few other things here and there. I will never sell the car.

Blessed With The Best Car Ever

I bought this car in 1999, and it had 10,000 miles. It is now September 2019, and I still have my car, and it is still the best car ever. I love my car, and I still get many compliments. This car was a blessing from the Lord in 1999, and it is still a blessing from the Lord in 2019.

It’s a good comfortable car.

This car is very smooth and comfortable. I test drove the car and I found no problem with driving it at all. I would recommend to test drive it yourself.
