Have been looking at this, 66k miles 3k cost.

What yous reckon ?

Thats a seriously cheap car, £600-£1000 off what it retails at. Still some wheels and a rear spoiler on it and it would look spot on.

Got to wonder why its so cheap though?

Yeah, for that I would have to go have a proper look at it, to see if there is something wrong that the ad doesnt state!

I would consider a 1.4 if there is not too much difference in performance compared to a 1.6

I would always think about T-Sport, It is a great car of Toyota.

Seen a couple of good, clean 1.4's as well! Is there much difference between the 1.4 and 1.6 ?

Like I said above, my 1.6 is noticeably quicker than my mates 1.4. That car looks tidy, and as far as what too look out for is concerned these cars a pretty bullet proof. Make sure it has FSH, if it has been regularly serviced then the 1.6s will run happily into 6 figure mileage without an issue. Sometimes they can have a squeaky clutch, but if you test drive it and there is no noticeable effect on the gearchange then it is just an annoyance rather than a mechanical issue so nothing really to worry about.

suppose, onwards and upwards haha!

Enjoy the Corolla though ?

Also, for a SR your talking at least 4 grand ?

Yeah I've loved my corolla. I'm thinking about 6 for mine or there abouts :)

Sorry if I sound patronising, I do not mean too but is a 1.6SR really worth that much? I am not too clued up on them so is there something special about them? I only ask as if this is correct then maybe my Compressor is worth a lot more than I thought... I pretty much value it at 6k (about the going rate on Autotrader) and it has a full main dealer service history and only 25k miles. No expense has been spared at all and it has been very well looked after, it has no scratches or dinks at all...
