Hi Twin Turbo, Thanks for this update. I will get a full checkup on the system once I lay hands on the vehicle. The owner has looked after it through his personal friends garage. The garage is somewhere at Templars Road Mt. I will get a check done on ATF before I take it home and the gearbox as well. My gosh, its like learning entire new science. But this is very much a good conversation which helps me to be a better vehicle owner. Owner has changed the T-belt at 200,000 km but will double check on it as well. I trust the owner in the sense he is a strict administrator and a strict academic who ran a higher education institute for two consecutive occasions and retired without a single day of extension to look after his own tea plantation. He owns a Toyota Avanza and a tata cab. So there is no space for him to keep the car and does not need it anymore. Will post a few pics when I get it. Thanks again for the inputs, and I will continue this thread with all the ups and downs to tell others how things move along. Cheers H

2.reco trans + system flush. ( prob never saw an ATF change.) Hi TwinTurbo, Could you please help me to with this point, I am new to tech jargon. H

Thanks friends for all the feed back. It is white car, CE 110 LX, it has done 235,000 km, engine overhaul done at 170,000 km. Paint sun scorched on the bonnet. Owner is paying for the repaint and cleaning. New battery and tires are fairly okay -perhaps another 5000 km. Starts quickly and no splashes of oil coming out of oil gauge. Owner wants 1,750,000/-, he assures 50,000 km without any fuzz. Is it worth that much?for a 65- I went to see the vehicle as a quite confidently, thanks to your inputs.

Hello Friends, I have found this forum useful with my Corolla DX KE72. Now I am thinking of an upgrade. One of my relatives owns a Corolla CE110, 1998, Diesel. Auto transmission and he is the first owner. Seems to be in good condition. I going for a test run tomorrow. I would like to get your kind expert opinion about it. vehicle is registered as 65- (can that be, as English numbers were started by 1997 or so)? What should I look when I test this vehicle? My mechanic told me about first heat start, to take oil gauge out while the engine is running and check for any splashes of oil. My other question is, that I have not seen a lot of adverts on this model on care sale websites? is that a sign of poor second hand market or otherwise that who owns it does not want to sell? Your responses are much appreciated. Cheers H
