My daily drive is a 1995 Toyota corolla which I've owned for six years. It's reliability is brill, I have it serviced once a year and I've put one set of tyres on it. It recently blew a sensor out of the exhaust which I believe is the original so I told the garage to fit a new system. They told me there was no need and just refitted the sensor and charged me

I've had access to a Corrolla on and off for commute

4k is a bit too much for me though re the 200SX

I might check out Nissan though, I used to have the use of one at work and it was ok
