subject: Reliability And Style: The Toyota Corolla [print this page] Most people look for certain things when they're looking to buy a car. They look for reliability, performance, re-sale value, affordability, fuel efficiency, and comfort. And you can find all of these things in the Toyota Corolla.
All things considered, the Toyota Corolla is a fairly common vehicle and for very good reasons. It's not as flashy as others and some would say that the design could use a little updating. But at the end of the day, if you're not particular about looks, the Corolla's classic styling is great for most people and will suit most personalities.
If you're looking for a little more flash, you can always opt for aftermarket modifications. Because it's such a popular vehicle, Corolla parts are readily available almost anywhere in the country. And you can always go for the hatch version, which has a little more flair than the sedan.
It has everything the average driver needs in terms of performance. It responds well under most driving conditions and is, all in all, a smooth ride. If you're looking for a commuter car for every day use, for the most part, this particular car can probably handle it fairly well.
The interior is roomy enough and can even accommodate a small family. It has all the standard requirements that people need for comfort. It has a good amount of cup and bottle holders, a decent amount of legroom both in the front and back seats, and the sedan has a good-sized boot for all your gear.
Maintenance also won't be a problem. Because the Corolla is such a popular vehicle, car parts in Australia are readily available. In the unlikely event that a certain part isn't available in your area, there are several websites where you can order the parts you need and have it shipped to you directly. Most mechanics are fairly familiar with the inner workings of this particular car so you can take it to almost any garage.
Another great thing about the Toyota Corolla is its re-sale value. Almost everyone sells their car at one point or another, once they are ready to purchase a new one or if they've outgrown the old one. And the Corolla's re-sale value has been consistently great through the years.
Overall, the Toyota Corolla is a car that is built to last. You and your family will be sure to enjoy it for years to come.
