    Hi there,
    I'm thinking of getting a Toyota Levin/Trueno. I will be 17 soon, and have priced around for insurance. (2,850 being the cheapest, not bad considering the cheapest I've been quoted for any small car, such as a yaris, corolla, fabia, fiesta, ibiza, polo, etc. is 2,500). So basically, I was wondering if people who have owned a Levin or Trueno can tell me about the car, such as any problem areas the car might have, what it's like to use everyday, what might be considered a high mileage, and also how the car is for petrol. If possible, could you tell me what would be a reasonable price to buy a BZ-G, and also a BZ-R respectively? I have seen a few on donedeal for about 1,600 to 1,700, then a jump to about 2,300 on.

    Any input on the car would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks,
    fatal1ty.

    EDIT: I meant to put in the title "AE110", not "AE101''.

    A friend of mine had a 97 levin BZ-r, it didn't give him any trouble that I know of but she was unbelievably bad on juice. It just scraped 25 mpg for him. I drove it a couple of times and she was some car to go. Hope that helps.

    A friend has one and it handles like a go kart! but its very uncomfortable, its more like a track car than a road car really, great fun to drive.. he never got any problems with it but I hear when the suspension starts to pack it in that parts are expensive. And it is every bit as hard on juice as my 325 id say
