The reason for this is that some parts are made in australia and some are imported from South Africa or Japan... The Corolla Sportivo is imported from South Africa so parts are expensive, i mean the wheels are like $1000 each... No joke... Whereas the badge is made in Australia as it's a Sportivo badge...
Heya ppls... Just wondering if anyone is interested in joining Sydney Rolla Club at Autosalon on the 1st and 2nd may??? We need 6 cars for a club display and we only have 4 at the moment... We would love for worthy Corolla's to join us... Costs are $100 total entry for the weekend... And that includes yourself and a buddy... Please get back to me asap as we need to get entries in soon... Cheers, Ben... If you have any questions at all, send me an email, PM or hit me up on MSN or ICQ... I'm always online... See us at Sydney Rolla Club Official Website...
Yeah... From memory that was Luke Phillip's Celica, DIP11S plates... 350hp Garret Turbo, 15psi, Bosch 500cc injectors, Custom intercooler, Trust BOV... Power output being 230kW at the flywheel...
Stoopid head, the dash glows like that in other models of Corollas... Like the Ascent has illuminative dials, Conquest has the glowing ones like the ones in the pic above and the Sportivo has the red dials...
My mate had a hands free in his R33GTR... When the phone rang, it would automatically turn the radio off and play the phone conversation through the speakers... Was a pain in the **** cause he got a call like every 2 mins...
And yeah, if you are worried in any way, request to have the oil and filter changed at your 1000km service... You'll just have to pay for the extra oil and filter and the labour charges...
Xoom, any defect that is not caused by the owner will be replaced under warranty... Window rubbers get replaced all the time on the new Corollas... It's just one of those ******ups they have... Like the coolant overflow bottles aswell leak, they are also replaced under warranty... Also the rear boot trims can be replaced as some don't fit properly around the rear lights... They kinda stick out instead of sitting flush in line with the boot rubber seal... And I know nothing about the gear selector problem... I havn't seen a car at work with that problem at all...
My work is actually in Artarmon :P :P :P ... The dealer is in Chatswood and the Service Workshop is in Artarmon... Where do you work??? I haven't seen any lift problems at all... And with the power windows, not too sure until it's looked at... I could guess and say the switch might be f**ked, or wires might be disconnected or something...
lol... I work in Sydney at Chatswood Toyota... You are all welcome to come to me, you just gotta pay the $80 an hour labour... I don't know of any Toyota dealers in Melbourne at all so go to any of them... I've been working there for 3 years now... Starting to know a bit...
