    Im a new member to Copenworld - from Melbourne Australia
    Ive had my copen from brand new, 2004/2005.
    Ive just clicked over 190.000 kms
    i use the car for my work running around the peninsula, which is practically all country road driving. Only things ive ever replaced are brake pads, tyres
    (several times of course) and O2 sensors, and a battery - and thats it!
    Most reliable car ive ever had. Toyota servicing is 2 months regardless.
    In australia, there isnt a lot of copens - seen maybe a dozen down on the peninsula. The only one close to me was written off, when a landcruiser ran over it while it was parked at home!!

    Welcome to the forum Dwayner. :)
    I hope you services it yourself. Every 2 months!

    I dont think i could do it myself!!
    In Australia, a full service is $165 from Toyota, so its a small price to pay to keep it perfect

    Hi dwayner,
    Went to the grand prix once in Melbourne a couple of years ago. Fabulous place. One thing that struck me was the noise in the restaurants when eating out. You guys know how to have a good time!

    Greetings

    Evening all. Just signed up, as am due to collect Copen next weekend after a little tlc from garage and am doing my homework. It is in every way a stupid choice of car for me, being 6ft 3in. But who cares. It's fun and the summer's on the way.

    Wow waterbaby,
    At 6 3, I guess it will be mostly top down!
