ST215 Caldina is a........?

Postby cat007 » Tue Jan 13, 2009 5:49 pm

Hey all

Is a ST215 Caldina like a Corona? i.e. will a corona towbar fit?

The sedan version of a caldina is like a corona variant that was sold in europe iirc. Had different grille but same headlights. I forget what name they went under. Either way I would hazard a guess and say that you would need a towbar to suit the caldina as opposed to corona
