Hi Guys,

I am in the market for a Corolla 1.8 T-Sport. I would like to know what these are like on the motorways to drive. Below are some questions:

1. Do the revs drop when in high gears to allow for comfortable cruising or do they remain high around 3500-4000 resulting woeful mpg?

2. Does the car shake at higher speeds 70-80 mph?

3. In windy conditions does it feel light and lift at the front?


Also, if there are any other buying points you could suggest that would be great.

P.S. If you have any photos of you're own cars they'd be cool to see.

Thanks, H

Guys,

Thanks for all your comments.

I was planning on a few trips say to France/Belgium (a bit concerned now!).

I guess a test drive is necessary soon.
