ryan lang Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Right so after a small accident in January i was left car less until recently. I have been slowly saving up since the accident to buy one of these cars as i have wanted one for a while now and im more than impresssed with it already. After a pain staking 13 hour round trip i finally got the Corolla home Its a lovely clean facelift with 76k on the clock, totally standard apart from a set of coilovers, which probably would have been my first buy anyway. Unsure of the brand but they feel really good, nice and solid but not rattly. Anyhow, here are some pictures of it No idea where im going with this yet, just going to enjoy it for a while Ryan Quote
ryan lang Posted June 4, 2014 Author Posted June 4, 2014 just ordered some service parts, TRD oil filter, Blitz panel filter and also some crystal black indicators but i may sell them on if they dont look right Quote
morgey Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Another to the corolla family Cracking cars and very underrated imo, all the best with it dude! Quote
triple j Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Starting to like these cars lately also the rip of a full exhaust on them , thats a very nice one best of luck. Quote

Eynonz Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) Very nice. Anyone how these compare to an EP3 Type R Civic? as I'm currently looking for a fun daily. Also is that paint damage or dirt on the rear? Edit: Wow, I just realized it's a reflection off the floor . Very shiny. Edited June 4, 2014 by Eynonz Quote
