RE: My Toyota Corrolla Ae86 1986

in #ae866 years ago

Old toyotas are awesome , they never give much trouble . This has about 110.000 miles on it whoch isnt bad for a 32 year old car . Its still awesome to drive but i need to rebuild the differential in it soon . So i'll taking the rear axle out myself in a few days .I'll try and make a post about it

I believe it will last you a long time a great investment. I wish I was mechanically inclined as you. You have skills that can earn you some good money.

Trust me , i feel out of my depths a lot of the time . I bought this car when the price was high so ill have to wait a few years to make money on it . The ae86 is crazy expensive here because it has a major cult following

I looked them up to see how much they are on America out of curiosity. The average price is 20,000 usd Jesus man that a lot.

Yep . I could buy a new car for the price of it here easily . You really gotta loved them alot if you want to own one . I still wonder should i have bought it but there not going to get any cheaper

It’s an investment. really When you buy a new car the value drops as soon as you drive it off the lot.
I almost bought a new Dodge Challenger but I didn’t because it’s overpriced and the roads are too bad on the winter for a rear wheel drive. I bought a cheap hatchback instead lol. Because I got a lifetime warranty on the little hatchback. I hate to say this but some American car brands aren’t dependable. A lot of people around this town drive Toyota tucks.

Well that is kinda my outlook on cars to about prices . I cant say i know much about there reliability as American cars are pretty much none existent here . I know they wouldnt suit irish roads though . I use a 2000 1.4 civic as my run around which is great . I could buy nearly 50 civics for the price i bought my toyota ae86 which is mental . Thats not a lie i just worked out the maths

I love the Honda Civic hatchback. My cousin drives a Honda Fit.

I bought my civic for 280 euro

Not bad. About 30 minutes drive from where I live there is called a place the moter mile. It’s nothing but car dealerships row after row. They have old cars new cars luxury cars imported cars domestic cars if you saw that place you would be in heaven lol.

I just went on the calculator and it works out 53.5 to be exact

That’s crazy. Lol.

Oh I forgot to mention to you that not far from me about 30 min to an hour drive there is this huge raceway called the Bristol moters. When they are not racing and you can rent out the whole stadium and they let you race your own car if you wanted. That would be paradise for a car lover like you.
