[Tutor] Finding a part of an element in a list

Dear Group, 

I have a list that is:

List1 =
['Tyres','windsheild','A\CUnit','Model=Toyota_Corolla']


In other list I have :
List2= ['Corolla','Accord','Camry']


I want to see if Corolla is there in list 1:

The code:
for i in range(len(List1)):
     if i in range(len(List2):
          print i

If I have 'Corolla' as an element in both list then it
is easy to find.  However, in List1 this element
appears as 'Model=Toyota_Corolla'. 

How can I ask python to match both elements:
'Model=Toyota_Corolla' and 'Corolla', where a part of
element is matching. 

please help.

thanks
