This guy has grown well into his position in this program. Starting to appreciate him a lot more now. Love this channel. Wish to feature on it myself 1 day.
I drove a 2003 RunX for more that 6 years and did 310000+ kilometers in it. Then drove the 2008 Auris for more than 4 years and 160000 km's and I believe that the Auris was a much better car. the balance, the comfort, active and passive safety features.
The new Corolla looks mean from the front! Toyota would be silly to not create a hot hatch with this car😎 With South Africans thirst for sporty hatches its a no brainer. Who wants a 2019 TRD Corolla hatch!?
I got a 2004 automatic. I really love to drive this car. Recently I changue the torque converter oil and it was so clean that yo cannot see the diference between used and new. Perfection.
I've owned a Tazz back in mid 2000's, great car for first timers! These days Toyota (Except the Lexus) no longer as appealing to me as before :( well.. since I took the German Diesel route.. ( From 1.9 tdi Polo to a beemer 2.0d E84 and 3.0d F30) the reliability, sportiness, looks, comfort and TOURQUE galore in these German cars, I just don't know if i would go back to Toyota again.
Yeah Liberebil did the Corolla video. I chat to Niyaaz often and sooner or later we were gonna cross paths. But as I mentioned before, we can enjoy both angles on the topic. :)
My comment in Pt I was that I have come close but never have owned a Corolla, or any Toyota for that matter. Oddly, I don't care for the 2019 Corolla/Auris shown (which has recently gone on sale in the US) but I do like the model that immediately precedes it, which the South African market may not get. Yes, it is smallish, but that is its appeal to me. BTW, the newest model is sold in the US with a 2 liter engine and a choice of CVT or 6 speed manual transmission and standard fit air conditioning. The older model has the tried and true but lackluster 1.8 liter engine with "only" 137 horsepower.
I got an Auris 2010 model second hand got at 254000 kilos and still have it. It’s been sublime but now I have my eyes on the new Corolla hatch but so reluctant to trade in the Auris to lower the asking price cause the annoying thing about Toyotas they hold value like nobody’s business
2019 looks waaay better than anything in its segment right now but the 1.2 engine not for me even the etios has a bigger engine, the RunX still my favourite Toyota ever why doesn't the price deprecate especially the RSI not to mention the TRD
Hi EArnest I didnote meet you because i didnote grow up in cape tone so i was somewhere else. I thing you did a nice job of making your first movie you look nice nice smile nice t shirt good voice for people to hear you speak. You're ok so please carry on. IF you come to johnnaseburg you can come visit me i dont have a toyota to fetch you from the airport bud the uber people has it so i can borrow one from them.
These days lots do. I used to own a dyno and we often tested new cars just to see. They're remarkably accurate to within a few kW. The Runx Rsi on the other hand was often 10kW down, sometimes as low as 128kW. It was a real problem on that car that was easily solved with breathing mods.
The RunX is nice until you get those stupid people who ruin it and slash its value by lowering the suspension, adding stupid woofer things taking up the whole boot, adding stickers, putting wheels that's too big and ruining all of it. So dumb. The Auris 2.0 d4d engine was terrible. But the interior was not too bad in design. The new Corolla hatch CVT is the worst part of the vehicle. It's terrible. The interior quality is good. The boot is absolutely tiny though. Stay away from the CVT. It is horrendous. I drove it and couldn't believe how bad an automatic can be. Dual clutch is also crap. They could've just made a normal efficient auto. If everyone else can do it surely they can. The current Golf is 7 years old now but still beats this when it comes to tech and drivetrains.
CVT is the future bro. I love CVT gearboxes in non performance cars cos i dont wanna even KNOW the gearbox exists. But for weekends I want a stick shift!
@@PerformanceWithPage You don't need a CVT to get the feeling that the gearbox doesn't exist. Look at the normal autos from Mazda, Mercedes, BMW... No cvt but smooth that you don't feel it. Those who use CVTs are just lazy to build a good auto or are not able to engineer an efficient one with an engine that can also be efficient with it. CVT drones, feels terrible and is weak. It can't even tow.
Every Corolla after the RXi is a testament to mediocrity - when playing it safe and boring to pander to old Oomies and Tannies who want reliability and absolutely nothing else. The Corolla is the automotive equivalent of a peanut butter sandwich... with very little peanut butter and a whole lot of goverment loaf. Toyota isnt even leading in the reliability stakes anymore... so what exactly are they offering? No thanks.

Thanks man! appreciate the compliment!
I still love the RunX more than Auris.. RunX Rocks
I've been waiting for part 2.
Super local content. Really speaks to me as a South African.✊🏾✊🏾
We're so glad. Thanks for watching
That runx was an epic car
Still driving my runx. Love it
have mine 14 years , never a day went wrong

Interesting take
What do you drive now?

I love this series 😍. Can we please have more reviews like this
Was just saying what a logistical nightmare this shoot was! HAHAHAH How about a Golf one?! :)

Thank you for uploading part two in time
The Legendary RunX.....
Very good video, enjoyed it and love the quality.
Currently drive the Auris and i am loving the comfort and reliability.
I got a 2004 automatic. I really love to drive this car. Recently I changue the torque converter oil and it was so clean that yo cannot see the diference between used and new. Perfection.
Oohhhb the RunX...here it is the Corolla E12 which I happen to own! IT'S SUCH A GREAT CAR!!
But our has got 6 or 8 airbags and our interior is (may I say it?) better!
T.O.Y.O.T.A R.U.N . X 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Well done Ernest, I enjoyed the videos.
Almost got the first view
Great video guys
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed!
Nicely done guys. Truly South African👍🏾
I love how y'all just blueticked the previous Auris😂😂😂"No one...really cares"
I've owned a Tazz back in mid 2000's, great car for first timers! These days Toyota (Except the Lexus) no longer as appealing to me as before :( well.. since I took the German Diesel route..

The RunX was the last good looking toyota hatch
That brand new CVT gearbox was recalled in certain markets. Do your research and buy the extended warranty if you go down the CVT route.
Awesome video ! A great presenter !
Thanks Sydney!
Lovely video Mr Page, I really enjoyed it.
Thanks Denroy!!
love the video but didnt Liberil do this as well just with the sports versions of each?
Yeah Liberebil did the Corolla video. I chat to Niyaaz often and sooner or later we were gonna cross paths. But as I mentioned before, we can enjoy both angles on the topic. :)
Correct me if I am wrong but I don't remember you mentioning the Toyota Yaris. Isn't also also part of this family?
Great review!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Corolla Hatch 19 nice look, smoothhhhh.

Can you please make a video of car brands that offer insurance like the Renault Sandero.
Runx🇲🇿💓💓💓💓
COOL VIDEO!!!
NIYAAZ! Thanks man!
Hoping to get a Brand-New ishh RunX.. . . . it's 2019 though.
Could you do this with the Honda Ballade?
10 speed cvt didn't know a cvt could have gears, unless 10 "gear ratios" are the speeds, would make a cvt wear out faster in my opinion.
That RSI brought tears to my eyes😢 that was a best hatch of its time better than a Golf TBH… the police used it even
I feel like this video is not long enough. Especially on the RunX part.
Yeah I feel you. we coulda made it WAY longer. We coulda made one video for each car!
A second-hand RunX fetches for serious money... not sure if it's worth it though.
2019 looks waaay better than anything in its segment right now but the 1.2 engine not for me even the etios has a bigger engine, the RunX still my favourite Toyota ever why doesn't the price deprecate especially the RSI not to mention the TRD
The Etios is 19kw and 53n.m less than the 1.2T but you can always tune it to 130kw
Hi EArnest I didnote meet you because i didnote grow up in cape tone so i was somewhere else. I thing you did a nice job of making your first movie you look nice nice smile nice t shirt good voice for people to hear you speak. You're ok so please carry on.

It's a shame that we don't get the 2.0 with 130k and a cvt that has an actual first gear
Oh yes the almighty Runx
Wait did Ciro do the Voice for the Dog? cause it sounds like
Ciro's Voice
HAHAHAHAHHAHAH. What has been heard cannot be unheard! HAHAHAHAHAHAH
Not sure many cars make the claimed power figures.
Great video nonetheless.
These days lots do. I used to own a dyno and we often tested new cars just to see. They're remarkably accurate to within a few kW. The Runx Rsi on the other hand was often 10kW down, sometimes as low as 128kW. It was a real problem on that car that was easily solved with breathing mods.
nice
I'm still mad about the Corolla sprinter 16 valve mhhhh
HAHAHAHAH!
Previous Gen Auris...Exit stage right....👀😂
Epic video and Ernest is such a cutie ;)
Thank you ma'am :)

U missed 2 generations
Yip...gone are the days of the "rattling iron"...welcome to refinement.
This was my first car until it got stolen 😓
