Furthermore, call me crazy, but I am of the opinion that the 1.4 is more reliable than the TA long term. What do you think?
I plan on keeping UFI for 20+ years, I guess we'll see. I suppose the 4cyls are likely to be more reliable, but when first looking at the TA, I found new, not reco, turbos for $400. Turbos always seem to be a major concern for folks but I wouldn't call $400 a big bill in the scheme of things (and weren't there a few failures in the early days?). The internet + a little diy can keep costs down.
I know someone with a Toyota bB that needed a new manual trans because the clutch fork had worn out (no replacement, can only get a new trans). You'd have never suspected buying a new Toyota that you'd be up for a new trans at relatively low miles.
