Hi there from Birmingham UK, Just like to say hello Options

Hi there friends!

My name is Mark, I live in Birmingham in the UK. Not too long ago, I advertised my car on ebay and a real friendly guy who I started chatting with pointed me in the direction of some Celica websites because I was secretly hoping, behind my wife's intentions, that the car would not sell & that I could keep it. In the short time between taking it in part exchange and advertising it for sale, I fell in love with it...so here I am.

It is a silver 1999 Celica Convertible.

I intend to keep the car long term now (as in forever) and almost every time I look at it, I am again amazed at the way this car has managed to stay so completely under the radar of car enthusiasts, when everything about it is just about as good and as functional as can be got from a 15 / 16 year old car - I love it.

I do have a couple of questions that I am hoping to get some help or advice on in time to come, but for now I just want to say Hi to everyone here and to thank you for allowing me to come along and join you all.
Kind regards,
Mark

Cooooool, Ill get the pictures up in the next 10 minutes or so... I am sure I have an old photobucket account that I will find the login details for.

Incidentally, I just drove 65 miles to get the pin extraction tool I was so looking forward to, and what was it...a ball joint extractor! I have to laugh or I will end up calling my friend some names ha ha.

I have taken this beautiful car out a couple of times now but not with the roof down so I am dying to get this job done and out of the way so that I can drop the roof and give her a well needed clean and a long run out...

Pics are coming in the next 15 minutes to half hour, please excuse the mess around the car, my kids really do think they can dump whatever they like in the way of spent cars and dad will clean up the mess ha
