Servicing reasonable and never needed repairs in the last 4 years!

On the road
Driving
Easy to drive about town. Always puts a smile on your face when i settle into it. Like an old friend.
Performance
Could be more, an engine swap to the manic 189BHP 2ZZ-FE used in Lotus would basically make it a Lotus, but insurance would be too much for some.

Living with it
Reliability
So far in 4 years I have has a blown gasket on the exhaust which cost a Tenner to fix!
Image
Comparable to MX-5, Smart Roadster, MG-TF. If you remove the Toyota badge you will be asked by straingers what kind of car it is!
Comfort
Firm ride, but comfy seats.
