    I just want to say that I think this is the dash from my old car a Toyota Yaris.

    I miss you ole’ buddy. I’m sorry you got rear ended and totaled. You were a great car.

      My first car was a 2001 Yaris. Lovely car until the timing chain broke and destroyed all four cylinder heads at once!

        Four cylinder heads in a Yaris! That’s a hell of an engine!

          It was a 1 litre 4 cylinder V-Tec Toyota engine, I presume it had four cylinder heads but I will admit I’m not 100% sure now… Damn good first car though. Would definitely recommend it

            I was just joking. A four cylinder engine has one cylinder head. Also VTEC is Honda. Toyota has their own variable valve timing called VVT-i.
