If its a v6 then the engine. Never seen/driven a 4 cylinder one so can't comment there.

The bodys seem alright, handle like poos but what can you expect?

this one is the 1800cc .. not v6

I have looked for caldina's but its hard to find in manual with lowish k's .. and if the k's are low they want BIG money

It is imported, 2 airbags, about 5-6k, its a 2wd, .. its suprising they have a lot of features for such a little price, assumed it must have been a shitter, but i'll give it a thorough look through just to be sure .. cheers for the heads up!
