My love of my corolla came about by chance really. I had a old datsun sunny, needed to get rid of it as it was coming up for rego etc. Dad said there was a old corolla traded in at his work in the wholesale yard. So i said rightyo i'll give it a look. I arrived to see this granny, shit coloured old corolla. What i really wanted was a AE86 (yes this was before all the hype) At first, i was like, it looks like poo. But after driving it, and having it as mine, i soon fell in love. Its cheap, very reliable, i've only had one problem with it and that was when the brushes on my alternator fagged up.
It would take something pretty major to give up poo, yes i would still like a AE86. The ease of engine conversion, suspension parts, RWD especially in the wet :D
So yeah my corolla didnt come around by me wanting it, it was a chance thing. But once i knew what it was etc. :D
And i don't want to change the colour of it.
