don't forget the 15 sets of brake rotors and 7 sets of front abs sensors.

i have made threads about this since the last 10 years . i cant clearly see what it is if it is the 2,8 then it will have had a solid mass flywheel and no turbo but the bucket and shimm head and its problems are coolant system neglect= death. the pre 1988 engine with 2.4 or 2.1 non turbo diesel is the engine top gear did try to destroy. i fitted a 1982 L 2.1 on my 90+ surf farm vehicle repaired its problems and serviced it and it is still making the surf move , only just as always with about 57 horsepower

Yes, noticed that, the first one to moan if a "Euro" thread had Jap stuff brought into it

And it is only 7 years old, wait until it is over 10 years old when all the "old Euro" problems start. Been on the market 6 months, seems nobody can see the value Jazz does.

so foregt about toyotas lasting the new ones wont last, am thinking to make a youtube to investigate and conclude as to why these petrol toyotas from the 80s to mid late 90s seem to be so bullet proof. Diesel where bullet proof if no turbo was fitted till 1988 , from there on it went down the hill. and its always the emission stuff destroying it. no problem if you expensive service and check the emission controll items , but if your ignorant it was a problem in the 90s on diesel and its going to destroy brand new cars in about 7 years from new . even in europe 8 year old bmw diesel destroyed beyond the value of the vehicle costing more in expensive repairs then it was worth. sometimes double the repair cost of its value. i am sure manufacturers rubbing hand woooo new sale looming insert rub hands here. icon

I find it flipping pathetic that this is now apparently "newsworthy" on prime time television. How our media have fallen, if it's not tabloid gossip celebrity rubbish, it's nonsense junk science, PC propaganda or yesterdays frontpage from reddit.
It's sad when there is a real world full of actual, serious and important stories to be told.
Apparently, though the programmed masses only have a taste for brain dead infotainment.
