Any pics? What parts do you need? Have you tried researching the part number via toyodiy.com and googling it so see if it's on sale online?

Its a corolla pretending to be a carina, easily mistaken by the untrained eye

The car in the link is most definatly a Carina 2! Ive no use for the whole car seeing as its only minor trim pieces I need.

Nothing of use so far, thanks for the replys.

My father had 2 of these, a 88, & a 92 (old model for that year) so its a Carina. Motorcheck.ie shows it as a "Toyota Carina 1.6GL". :P

The grille is the giveaway, Carina's were much wider than the Corolla's from that era.

What are you on about? That car is a Carina II, it is also known as the Corona t170 in Japan.

The Corolla is a different car from the class below.
