HI all

Just found this forum while searching accessories for my corolla.

I'm no pro in cars, but I'm always interested in knowing more about anything I own, and the car is not less. I'm 23 from Malta (EU), and I'm a full time IT student, p/t eCommerce manager, self employed computer support tech and love to do voluntary work as well

First thing I'd like to know, and this made me register... is the gen/year/exact model of my corolla. I know this could be funny... but well

what shall I do?

Dan

Welcome to the Nation!

What year is your Corolla? That would be the 1st indication of what generation it is. Maybe snap a few photos and post them up here too.

I will.

What I can say is that the handles and side mirrors are black. The front guard is black not silver. Anyways, will post a pic in a few minutes.

EDIT: I don't know the year :p lol :/
EDIT 2: Thanks for the warm welcome

Here it is (it's the only one I have so far, hope it's sufficient enough):

Hmmmmm, that's not like any Corolla that we have here in the U.S. Did your car come with an owner's manual? It would have the year printed there. If not, there should be a date of manufacture on the driver's side door jamb, that should give you a clue as to the model year.

It was imported from Japan. I will check, but it looks very similar to the 2003 model. I've seen some similar corollas in the pictures thread.

However, this one is exactly the same as mine:

Thanks for your compliments. Welcome to this forum

However, what should I look for when searching for accessories? I know absolutely nothing about cars hehe, but all I know is that it has the Assista package. Is there anywhere I can look for accessories? It must ship worldwide though, as I'm in the EU not the US. The car I bought from my uncle, and he bought it from someone who bought it second hand from a Japan importer. It has around 62000 and it's still as new. So I'd like to take care of her the same way the previous owners did. Is there anything I can read as regards to basic maintenance etc... ?
