Corolla hybrid-new member/new owner

[Mark375]

Hi folks,

Up until a week ago I had a 57plate Yaris that had done 230,000 miles when I retired it. I have been saving money over the last couple of years and had my eyes set on a Corolla hybrid. I finally took the plunge a week ago and I am incredibly impressed with the 1.8 icon tech. I've got a long journey to Hull from Somerset in a few weeks, it'll be interesting to see how it does on a long journey, I'm looking forward to putting the various tech through their paces!

The only thing I'm thinking of upgrading are the Speakers.

Hello Mark - welcome to Toyota Owners Club.

Mark, and don't let the pessimists spoil your enjoyment.   We went from a Corolla which we loved to a Yaris Cross which we love even more.  Smaller outside, larger inside 😁

welcome, Mark

230 thousand that’s a fair shift

Hi Mark, Welcome lots of good advice when you need it and always welcome when you give it. I've only got 290,000 miles before I catch up with your Yaris.  😄
