[OM] Re: [OT] Toyota reliability, was: Broken DSLR - worth repairing?

[Andrew Fildes]

This is where things get cloudy - for instance, the Yaris and WRX are  
fully imported into Oz but the Camry built locally as Toyota is one  
of the largest local manufacturers. Local experiences of reliability  
may differ widely. I once had a Nissan twin cab pick-up which was  
mechanically brilliant but the body rotted off the frame, a rare  
thing down here these days. A wiser man informed me that this was  
because 'it was built in Spain.'
Globalisation creates such variation - you often don't know what you  
are actually buying.
