VERY POOR CAR

SIX YEAR OLD CAR, 83000 MILES.
FOLLOWING FAULTS:-
WINDSCREEN WIPER SWITCH FAULTY.
CYLINDER HEAD PROBLEM, DONT KNOW WETHER ITS A GASKET OR A CRACKED HEAD YET!!!!
DUAL MASS FLYWHEEL RATTLING BADLY REPLACEMENT WITH CLUTCH £1000+
STEERING COLUMN KLUNKING EST COST OF REPAIR £500.
BACK DOOR HEAVY AND DOES NOT SHUT CORRECTLY
RATTLES IN DASH AND DOORS.

THIS IS MY FOURTH TOYOTA AND MY LAST, VERY DISSAPOINTED.
ENGINE IS NOISY, STEERING IS VAGUE.
EXPENSIVE TYRES AND REPAIRS THAT MAKE IT AS EXPENSIVE AS A MERC OR BMW TO REPAIR.
I AM NOT BITTER AS I HAVE BEEN A TOYOTA FAN FOR YEARS BUT THIS IS A BAD CAR, NO MODERN CAR SHOULD HAVE A FAULTY STEERING COLUMN AND NO MODERN CAR SHOULD HAVE CYLINDER HEAD PROBLEMS AND THE DUAL MASS FLYWHEEL IS A NIGHTMARE FOR MOST MODERN CAR OWNERS.
