Excellent
We had a 1997 Toyota Starlet a 5 speed manual 5 door model. My wife had the car from new and she did 166,000 kms before we gave to her dad after we bought a new lancer. It never missed a beat and was so cheap to run and we drove from sdyney to brisbane twice in it and it cost us $120 there and back each trip. It handled very well in the corners and you could really out handle bigger cars easily. I would have another one for a second car or as a first car for a child.
cheap to run and very reliable
