We had an immaculate low km 87 GLS in NZ in the mid 90s It was a great looking car with a very comfortable cruiser, with a good flat handling on the winding NZ roads, and a compliant suspension that was not overly soft but which avoided bump-steer on potholed corners. It was also a practical family hatch once we got our toddler into the back seat, and of course as reliable and economical as any small Jap car is. We enjoy driving but not fast, so hairdresser cars like the non-Turbo Cordia suit us (we have a Kia Koup now). Will post a pickkie shortly.

I absolutely love these things and I don’t know why there is so much hate for them they aren’t even bad cars just because they did not exceed in a market with AE86s,S12s and Piazzas due to just poor marketing and not being a well seasoned brand yet just because of some stupid comic that showed a character in a forgotten car with godly skills and destroying ultimately better cars yet the love for them is outrageous even though the competition especially the piazza was just better in the only thing people praise about them which is handling and the piazza destroys it in that aspect and let’s be honest some old hatch from the 80’s is the best car that ever existed and the AE86 was actually a cost effective vehicle by borrowing many parts from the E70 and Toyota was surprised that this recycled plastic trash can actually had any popularity as they expected it to be forgotten almost immediately just like its competitors after just two years of production even though as I quote from Wikipedia they pioneered the medium classed sports hatchback scene in the 80’s for Japan as the piazza was higher priced then and anyway you get my point this car does not deserve the hate it gets and if so why not be the same across the sprinter,Silvia,piazza,etc
