the last thing you want is to be in the outside lane with the Toyotas that can't stop.
Here we go- why is everyone having a dig at Toyota? OK they haven't handled the present issues very well at all ( very badly in fact) but let's keep a sense of perspective here. Generally, they have very good build quality and are fairly unburstable
Moreover, almost all manufacturers do recalls for numerous issues ( including Peugeot as I recall, Jim!) and Honda have done one recently. That doesn't make models like the Accord anything other than a well- built and tried car
On a personal level I have two Toyotas and a Lexus ( and will buy an FT 86 when it appears). Last weekend, I did 400 miles in a 2006 T-Sport Corolla which has been chipped up to 228BHP It still runs- albeit with EBC greenstuff pads- the standard 4 wheel discs plus drum auxiliary for the parking brake. It has not been subject to a recall becuase it has a standard accelerator cable set-up, goes like stink, handles extremely well and has features and finish which are characteristic of many cars in a much greater price range.
So, let's get real here shall we?
