As a cheap run around is a 02 Corolla that much better than an 00-01? My mum wants new car after her Ford TAXI and I recommended a Corolla. You can get the 00-01's for several thousand cheaper than the 02 onwards. Are they worth paying the extra or is the 00-01 for around $10,000 a better bargain? I know th e later model is always better but is it worth the extra? Thanks!

best bet would be to contact your local motoring group - get there advice - even if no a member

the toyota corollas of today are not as good as the corollas of the past - toyota historically had near complete control of the design, manufacture of components - today the majority of that has been outsourced - it buys a much higher percentage of its components from outsourced suppliers - Toyota does not have the same degree of control over so the quality is not as would be. There is much to be learn't! There has been plenty written on this subject.

If you do get a current generation corolla - make sure it is Japanese built!

Just pick up the older toyota man, sure the 1zze engine is great and sure the new deisgn is much nicer. But the old ones are value for money in that its still a tough as nails corolla and will do the job well as a mummy mobile. Unless u want a dual use vehicle (i,e, u'll drive it too) then why not you chip in the extra and buy a newer one? oh BTW, there's this bloke with a fantastic metallic red rolla fro sale with free17 in chromes. perhaps u should PM me about it ;)

hhmm..just my 2cents worth..i think if its ur mum's whose gonna be driving..doesn't really matter which one u get right?she probably won't know the difference..getting the older ones might not be a bad idea..coz the AE's are pretty nice to zip arnd in.. :)
