Here is something you very rarely find nowadays: a genuine and honest Finnish time capsule from the top of reliability. This is a Toyota Corolla with only 140,000 km on the clock, and you can really tell! This rarity has been kept in exceptionally tidy condition throughout and has not been subjected to teenage abuse — it has been treated like a treasure. From the bodywork and interior you might believe it has 140,000 km, but you would never guess it is thirty years old! Only very minor rust spots that you almost have to look for, and no bigger dents or scratches. Small stone chip in the glass that has not dangerously spread over the years. Small crease on the driver's rear wing, visible if you look closely. In short, a car preserved in outstanding condition!

The car's history reads like a textbook – it is an original Finnish car that has been with the previous owner for an impressive 24 years, and there have been only two owners in total. The service history is exemplary: all scheduled services are recorded in the service book, and the car has also been treated to regular additional private maintenance. As a result, the mechanics and engine purr exactly as a Toyota should! The car runs smoothly without odd noises, rolls nicely, brakes properly and the gear engages easily!

This vehicle has just passed its inspection with clean paperwork and is fully ready to drive away without immediate repair needs. Included are two very good sets of tyres on their own steel wheels and, of course, winter essentials for Finland: a block heater and an interior socket, so travelling is comfortable in any weather. The car even comes with three keys, so you have spares to lose! If you are looking for a timeless, bomb‑proof daily driver whose value and reputation will hold, here is your opportunity. You will not find another Corolla in this condition with these kilometres any time soon!
