So I was surfing around the web site of the guys who sold me the BZ-Touring and I can across an interesting Corolla GT Pretty standard stuff considering these guys' yard is full of these things. What caught my eye with this one was... Yes...total mileage of 500km ! One owner Year of first registration 1997 ! Called the guys up and they confirmed that it was actually 500 km and they had all the service records !!! Would you buy a car that that is roughly 17 years old with an engine+drive train that has hardly been broken in ? - Even if the owner started the engine and let the fluids circulate and reach op temp; that still doesn't mean the gear box etc got the same work-out - since it is only 500km I wouldn't know is these constituted drives that actually allowed the engine and drive train to reach a decent operating temperature (i.e. could actually be considered to be "hard usage"based on Toyota's very own definition) but then again the shop says the car has been taken care of and the bushes and even the tires are not dried up and/or cracked. So if you came across this little gem (or demon in disguise)....what would you do ?
