There's a bit or rust showing in the rear fenders (1/2"). It's been reliable. I replaced the battery when I first got it, not the hybrid battery the regular one, and the brakes, that's it. Everything works. Fuel Average is about 10.3L /100km, I'm a bit heavy on the pedal. IT's actually a pretty quick car. These are nice. I have a client who had two modern RX350s stolen one after the other, and finally he couldn't deal with the inconvenience. He went on Marketplace and found a mechanically clapped but visually sorted 2007 RX400h for $2500, with 480,000km on it. He paid us a few thousand to do a hybrid battery replacement, suspension refresh and fluids, and he's been driving it daily for quite some time.

Put on the grill block. The Corolla is now ready for the approaching cold blast.

Yeah, 60k seems early to me for shocks. I remember replacing shocks on my '94 Altima at around 64k (and no, I have absolutely no idea why I remember that) but that's the only car I've ever had to replace shocks on.
That is early, but not bad cost or difficulty wise.

The 2012 was on the original units all-around after 11 years and 92,000 km.
