Default Toyota Yaris 1.0

Hi guys. My g/f is trading in her 1999V Toyota Yaris GS 1.0 VVT in a week. The car has a FSH, has just had new tyres, brake pads and roll bar bushes at the last service less than 1,000 miles ago. It's silver, 62k miles and in VERY good condition. Would make a great cheap little car for someone. The dealer are giving her £1700.00, so anything above that and it's yours. We're in Surrey, let me know if you want to come and have a look.

Phil

My wife has one of these, even same miles!
NEVER broken down, always works well does everything you need in a family, my daughter learnt to drive in it and it carries anything down to the tip!

They really are good!

Anyway, free BTTT for you.

Thx! Yeah they're great. We had a Merc A-class before that was a nightmare! My g/f wants something a bit bigger and with aircon, but she can't afford the new Yaris. We've gone for the new Suzuki Swift instead, I hope that's as reliable as the Yaris was. Then again it's got a 3year warranty so I think we'll be fine!
Toyota are amazing, I had a Landcruiser Colorado for a long time and it's the most bulletproof and utterly reliable piece of automotive engineering I have ever come across. I have alot of mates in Australia and South Africa where if you break down, you could well die. They all swear by Landcruisers and Hilux pickups. That's saying something......

My girlfriends got a suzuki swift and its a good car. Its the 1.5 so goes quite well too.

They did call them back because there was a problem with the handbrake but nothing major. Apart from that its great.
