1983 Toyota Corolla DX 1.3 FWD

1983 Toyota Corolla DX 1.3 FWD – 5-speed manual – genuine Irish car. A very genuine and exceptionally well-looked-after 1983 Toyota Corolla DX 1.3, which I have owned for over 20 years. This is a genuine reluctant sale of a car that has been my pride and joy for more than two decades. The car has had only 2 previous owners and has always been registered in Limerick. It has been continuously garage stored and carefully looked after during my ownership. 1983 Toyota Corolla DX 1.3L FWD 8-valve petrol 5-speed manual gearbox Approximately 172,000+ miles Only 2 previous owners Irish car from new Always registered in Limerick Owned by me for 20+ years Garage stored Original interior Original Toyota steel wheels Original specification Exterior has been professionally repainted at some stage No known rust No welding No known leaks No known mechanical faults Starts easily from cold Drives beautifully Last serviced approximately one year ago 2 keys Currently taxed until the end of September Classic/collector's car The interior remains and retains the original 1980s Toyota character, including the original seats, dashboard, trim and period features. Mechanically, the car drives extremely well. The engine starts easily from cold, gearbox is smooth and there are no known issues with the engine, gearbox, clutch, brakes or suspension. The car has never been modified or turned into a project. It remains a very genuine example of an early-1980s Corolla. I've owned it for over 20 years and have kept it garaged and cared for it as a classic rather than simply using it as everyday transport. *Reluctant sale* After more than 20 years of ownership, this is a genuine reluctant sale. I'm currently spending heavily on upgrading the house, including gutters and other work, and unfortunately the costs are adding up. I'm therefore looking for someone who will appreciate the car for what it is and continue to look after it. Price as listed - O.N.O No swaps or timewasters, please
