if you don't mind, please let me know the price that you are getting, at the moment drive away for $34K which is very good price consider last year drive away price before bargain close to $39K. You can send me private message if it is not a good idea for public to know. Thanks. In my opinion aurion is better in term of boot space because my friend sold his previous euro model because the boot space too squeze to put in the pram (i think with a new model similar in size or bigger a little bit). I have 2 prams with aurion so far it fits nicely and interior space I believe also bigger so if you are planning to keep this car for long then you made the right choice in case you have 2 kids ;)

DJKOR, when you reach 0 on cruising range, you still can drive around 50km more? and when the fuel warning turn up, can we still drive around 50km? I don't dare to test it hehe...since I don't have roadside assist in case it is really empty hehe...

Hi.. My Dec 07 Aurion muffler/exhaust pipe has brownies or looks like corrosion inside the hole probably from water coming out from the pipe. Do you think it is normal? thanks

Yeah mate. My 30k service was quoted at $309 which included a wheel alignment. I wasn't satisfied with their service overall, so I'm heading elsewhere next time. I thought the first 3 yrs (or up to 4 services) still $120 provided you drive normally ie if 30000km still cost $120. How come both of you end up $300? I am confuse. http://www.toyota.com.au/Accessories/acces...84_1314,00.html

Thanks all, wait and see when the first service due. hm...I don't think my friend has time to get a quote to fix the scratch. She will get the dealer to change bumper if they cannot fix the scratch and I doubt they will make it smooth again.

Yeah..I am not happy but my friend still keep it quite. The dealer knows some more but didn't tell us when we pickup the car. I check during the pickup but of course didn't look in details and the car wet after the rain. Only when we arrive at home then realised it and called the sales person and he knows about it and told her to bring the next day to buff it up but still scratch. at least the sales person still honest but yeah...I am not happy. So how much should she get compensation considering need to go back and forth as well or replace the bumper?

HI.. My friend's new car corolla ultima has a scratch on the front bumper but the dealer buff it up but still appearing so will need to buff it up again in the free service 1000km, dealer said. but I don't think it can be fix unless change the whole bumper. It quite big some more. I prefer not get the dealer to replace the front bumper just in case it will damage other stuff or not fit properly. If after the first free service still cannot be fix, I want to ask for compensation or refund. How much is the cost of the front bumper and installation? $500? What is your suggestion? replace bumper or get refund? if the dealer doesn't want to either replace bumper or refund, what should I do? report to ACCC? please advise. THanks.

The only rattle for me is when I put the speed of the AC/fan very high...then I can hear the fin rattle but if you make a certain angle it is ok but I give up on this since the dealer said already replace it for me but I still get the same issue. I am not put the speed on high anyway... I own 2007 Sept/Oct build touring. Edit: does who said no rattle at all, would you mind test and put the fan speed all the way up and then hear it or move to a certain angle please? let me know the outcome. thanks.

Do you still buy corolla NOW eventhough without ESP? overall corolla sedan still better compare to mazda 3 (will be replace next yr) and ford focus sedan?

Personally, Agreed value better because it will depreciate less than market value.

Hey...how come when I check mine it is shows $670....I think it is going up?? Do you have any connection Sanz?? hehe..

yes that is the depreciation and it drops a lot :( I check my quote that I've got December 2007 and it was less than $600 but AAMI told me just use change over instead of refund me the remaining cover with my old car but now I get more expensive when trying to renew. I don't know how they measure the premium. You are lucky seca only $580 but if you check based on my suburb and credential it shows $960 for TRD Aurion :( my suburb is not high risk area though.

When i change over my car to new aurion touring in Dec 07 I only need to pay $40 extra from my existing car and the lady from AAMI told me it will be around $580 in July 2008 when it is due. Now, renewal policy give me a quote for $680 for $29200 value (drop from $35000 that I quoted them earlier incl child seat, portable gps, floor mat, tint window plus driveaway) with rating one, no claim before/no accident/no theft/no modification etc. I spoke to AAMI and the lady said the glass guide review make the insurance policy going up from May 2008. Is this true? Question for you: 1. If your car value about $29000 to $30000 in your insurance policy, how much do you pay the premium with standard excess and what is your insurance company? 2. Is toyota aurion that bad because it is drop a lot? 3. I found from bingle and it quoted me for $540, are they ok and safe? (still under AAMI but everything online) 4. Would you mind sharing your experience claiming or service from bingle.com.au (if you have any)? I welcome other comments or suggestions. Please let me know. Thanks.

What do you mean by excess free windscreen coverage? is this part of the warranty or roadside assist or car insurance? You get cheap price for manual levin zr, will hunting mid next month or 3rd week. Thanks. Edit: oh yeah...if your smart entry battery died, how do you open (I guess use the key), how about start the engine? Do we know if the battery almost flat? or toyota will replace the battery every service? Also how many smart key do we get? two? and how many manual key?

Thanks All...I think we go ahead with ultima. any one would like to share your purchase price either ultima or levin zr?
