Toyota Corolla for sale - excellent condition

Andrea from Otaki District

This is a car that needs no introduction.
We purchased this Corolla (that we nick named Lenny) during lockdown and he has proved to be a very solid, reliable car. Much loved and extremely well looked after. Only selling as we are wanting to buy an EV, have a second vehicle already and WFH a lot.
We purchased from TH Motors in May 2020. Mileage was 146,000 kms.
Previous owner – had for 13 years. Serviced annually at King Toyota in Lower Hutt.
Lenny has been serviced every year of ownership (all paperwork available). He runs and drives great with no mechanical issues at all. Starts 1st time every time, even on cold chilly mornings.
Typically used for short trips around town, although Lenny is great for longer trips and motorway driving too.
Despite the fuel efficiency rating, we have found Lenny to be relatively good for his engine size, transmission, and fuel tank size. A full tank typically lasts us ~450-500 kms.
Cosmetically Lenny is still in very good condition, but the paint does have a few small scratches / is showing a bit of wear and tear in small areas - as expected for his age.
Interior is in very good condition as seen in the photos. No tears or rips to fabric. Footwell on drivers side is scuffed and marked – can be covered with a footmat (supplied) if desired.
Comes with a near new spare tyre in the boot and 3 keys - 2 remote and 1 spare.
And for those who pine for yesteryear and enjoy the simple things in life – Lenny has an AM/FM radio and CD player. He also has a coin receptacle (for the good old days when coins were popular, and parking meters accepted cash). He even comes with a cigarette lighter! (we are smoke free owners).
We will be sad to see Lenny go – he is a great reliable car. Some motoring websites report these little beauties can last an astounding 300,000 miles (482,000 kms!). Lenny still has a lot to offer any new happy owner.
Vehicle is based in Kapiti. Please call for viewing. Test drives welcome by appointment.
Genuine buyers only. Thank you.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
