CVT. Hybrid. Toyota Corolla wagon.

On the other hand the views are spectacular. And if yiu avoid the tunnels, the roads are empty and beautifully kept. It’s like route napolean without the traffic and caravans.

Now if only I could pack the bimmer to bring with me next time.

Did they give you a rental with an automatic because you’re an American? It can’t be their standard compact rental, can it?

Agreed about the region. I drove there almost 2 years ago, into Andorra. Great roads and views.

You get the Corolla in the US. In my country the Corolla has been discontinued many years ago. We do get the Auris (your Corolla iM), as both a hatchback and a wagon. The only Toyota sedan we get is the Avensis (similar to a Camry)

Good transportation appliances, poor cars.

We don’t get the wagon, though. In fact, the only Toyota that’s sold today in the US and can be called a wagon is the (much larger) Prius v (which is your 5-seat Prius +).

on the other hand, the speeds we were pushing would have got me arrested by VicPol lol

The thing felt downright dangerous at highway speeds. got thrown around by the wind a fair bit at around 70mph. I assumed it was the shitty fuel saving tyres as the car was fairly new itself
