Sad to say Goodbye to my loved Toyota & Toyota for ever

[Hello & Goodbye]

Just to say that if you have a Toyota Corolla GS 2002, cherish it

Mine has been going through every MOT without even a comment all these years. She has a massive boot and has transported everything inside from IKEA to our front door!

Unfortunately, last week, some-one crashed in the car behind which crashed into mine and the insurance will not repair it (Not economical as £3000) so it is goodbye to my beloved Toyota which could have go on for years.

If you want a totally perfect car (for parts) except for a dent in the middle of the back, go to ABL Portsmouth to claim it (£200 scrap value).

The local Toyota dealer (WKB in Waterlooville) has just been taken over by Snows (http://cardealermagazine.co.uk/publish/snows-group-hits-30-acquisition-wkb-toyota-sites/119784) so they did not have any Toyota Auris Petrol (non-Hybrid) as was my first choice (Top in J.D. Power VDS 2016  https://www.motoringresearch.com/advice/buying-selling/j-d-power-reveals-dependable-cars-2016. )

As I have 7 days left on the insurance/courtesy car & cannot be carless for work, it is goodbye to Toyota very sadly (First Toyota Corolla, 1994, Second in 2005)

Hi there,

I take it going a bit further to find a different dealer wouldn't tempt you?

My local Toyota chain is terrible and so I have opted for one that's 20 odd miles away, they will still pick it up for service.

Sorry to hear you leaving because of the dealer.
