The final lot of work in the week since I bought the car, was to sort out some shifting issues

Next on the list of things to quickly knock off, I wanted to install a proper gauge to measure oil pressure and temp.
Having arrived home with the new car the day before, I took no time at all to start ripping the car to bits.
Nothing stays untouched in my fleet for long, so the Yaris got some work done the day after picking it up.
It seems my obsession with small hatchbacks continues. After a brief fling with a warbling droning Swede, I returned to what seemed to suit me most.
Finally, second time lucky, it was time to replace the old four-spoke wheel with my three-spoke.
One thing that bugged me since I got the Carib was that the ignition barrel had been damaged, both making it hard to accurately insert the key, and making it look somewhat dodgy.
One difference the Pre-Facelift Carib has is that the taillights are big solid colour blocky things. I didn’t really like them, so off they came.
The final task on the original Rolla was to stick the Carib suspension into it, and basically revert it back to the car as I bought it, but slightly better.
Well, it was a good run with the Liftback Corolla, but unfortunately it’s become unfeasible to keep it going.
