2005 Toyota Corolla

A little boring but extremely dependable
This car is the most reliable I have had in a long time. It is not sporty or beautiful but if you are looking function, dependability, safety and fuel economy this is the car for you!

hassle free car
So my corolla is now 12 years old and it is still running strong. I haven't had problems and always know it'll get me to where I need to go hassle free. There are cars with the bells and whistles out there but if reliability is important to you, like it is to me, then the corolla is the way to go!

It's a sturdy work horse of a car
The 2005 Toyota Corolla CE has been a solid driver for years. The trip stopped at 299999km and that was almost two years ago! Upkeep has been simple. I am sure that the car's body will fail long before the engine.

2005 Toyota Corolla

Trim: LE
by JayT8560 on 09-10-2014
Most reliable vehicle to own.
I owned a Toyota Corolla LE for 5 Years. I bought it because a friend of mine who is a mechanic recommended it to me.
He also has two toyota's in his house , an older celica and a corolla and as independent mechanic he always says that Toyotas are the most reliable cars.

I bought my car with five years of used and with a clean record. I have ridden it for it for 5 more years and have never had a single problem with it. The only visits I have done to the mechanic is for the periodical oil, tires and break pads changes.

I have own other cars before: Honda, Chevy, Cadillac and Ford and non of them has been as reliable as the Toyota Corolla.

Fun Car to Drive
The Toyota Sport is a great drive. The seats in the Toyota Sport have the best comfort and support,plus it is an easy vehicle to get in and out of. We have taken it on many long distance trips across Canada and through the US. It has proven to be very reliable, comfortable and economical.

2005 Toyota Corolla

A decent car
This car is good for the running quick errands. I have owned this car for about 8 years and I haven't had any major problems with this. Reliability is what Toyota is known for so it is quite good in that aspect. However, for long drives this car is not suitable at all and it get really uncomfortable. It makes a lot of sound for a not very powerful engine. The interior and exterior is dull, but that’s what you get for what you pay for. The steering is light for my preference, but that depends on how you drive and the handling is under average. There is a lot of body roll and you feel the car is not under control, that is if you are going faster than what you think in the corners.
You can get a lot of mileage in this car, but that again depends on how you drive it. I would somewhat recommend it to people that are new to this country and are looking for something that works, but if have more money to spend this should not be your first and only option. This car is definitely not fun to drive and it does get boring after three or four times in the car. It is around $18,000 so you can’t expect much.

Reliability At It's Finest
Owned this car for 5 years, and it has never let me down. I drive a high number of km's and have never had a mechanical fault. Clutch and timing belt needed changing eventually, but lasted longer than expected.

There is a reason that Toyota cars around this age hold their value. Because they were well made to begin with, and age well.

If you are considering a Corolla, worry about rust not km's.

It's The Little Extras That Count
This car has given sterling service for several years, something which was fully expected given the Toyota reputation. What wasn't fully understood at the time, however, was the pleasure provided by driving an economy car possessing many of the "bells and whistles" associated with more expensive vehicles. The feel of the leather seats, the light coming through the sunroof, the power controls - all combine to raise the driving experience from dull routine to one of satisfaction and contentment. The extra money for the little extra flourishes was money well spent.

Nice tight turning radius. LOVE this car!
My favourite things about this car is the tight turning radius. It's great for pulling into busy traffic from my tight driveway. Gas mileage is excellent and the car just never needs repairs.

Car looks modern from outside; interior is more roomy than it looks. You can't tell by looking but the backseats fold down to extend the trunk space, can always fit my outdoor gear!

Excellent value for price!

I Love My Corolla
I have owned my Corolla, which I bought used, for almost 7 years and I love it. It is reliable and I love that it sits higher than a lot of mid-size cars. The back seats fold down, extending the trunk space, which is a huge feature for me. I am starting to think about buying a new car, not because there is anything wrong with the Corolla, but just because I feel like it is time to upgrade, and I would definitely consider buying a Corolla again.

EXCELLENT IN SNOW AND ON THE HIGHWAY
Using as a general commuter to Kelowna 3 days a week and this car is fun to drive and requires fuel and regular oil changes. Brand new tires as originals are now past safe standards, winters and all seasons included but only one set are mounted on rims. Will need a new windshield after spring hwy cleaning. Would like to upgrade to something sporty and 4 wheel drive as my needs will be changing.................

This is a reliable simple car. Easy for maintenance and requires very little work to maintain. It was one of the larger compact cars at the time of purchase and can early fit 2 rear facing car seats in the back. I have had issues with wind noise (through manual windows and the cruise control switch failing.
