Oh! Fun fact, the saloon/estate were built in Turkey, so received lower spec than the hatch: no fancy options, no heated leather, no steering wheel audio controls, no colour nav etc. Still, none of that is really needed anyway, this is plenty of car for daily driving.

If anyone has any leads on a Samara for sale that is fairly cheap, please get in contact! Would love to own one, as my dad had to sell my granddads' one back in Russia when he passed, and I always loved that shape and that car ever since then. Not sure if I'm allowed to do this, but it would mean a whole lot to me. Many thanks!

hiii! sorry for not replying, I'd forgotten about my account details for a while and only just got back to getting them reset- I've lost hope for acquiring my next Toyota, a dream of mine: An AE91/AE92 Sprinter Trueno. Instead, I go back to my soviet roots: I'm on the hunt for a Lada Samara, one similiar to my granddad's old one. Hopefully one day I might be able to snag a Trueno, in the far future when money isn't sooo tight, or maybe a HiAce or something similiar! Would love to have a support van for me and my girlfriends shitboxes, although I fear there might not be any space for a third car, let alone the Corolla and the Samara I will get next. So far with the Corolla, which a friend aptly named Carl, nothing much has happened - I've serviced him with genuine parts and oil (cheaper than equivalent castrol), managed to put a small scratch in the rear passenger side of the bumper (sad! will get it fixed myself one of these days when I've got the right weather) and the headliner is still saggier than a cheese pizza from a cheap prison cafeteria. Running fine at about 28k miles!
