Asked by Matty
I NEED a car that is reliable, economical, manual and roadworthy for less than $2000. I was looking at a 1981 KE70 Corolla, but wonder if there is something else out there. It only has to last me eight months. What are my options?
Answered by CarsGuide
16 Nov 2007YOU can't expect a cheapie to be ultra-reliable, no matter what the brand. The best approach is to look at the established brands -- Toyota Corolla, Mazda 323, Ford Laser and Nissan Pulsar -- and pick the car in the best condition. Concentrate on the popular Japanese brands, but keep an open mind on other makes.
