Hello,
My son has fallen into the trap of the Celica Gen6 and we are going to look at one soon, its a low mileage (Show Car) 1996 GT, Dry stored for the last 3 years only being driven for shows and to keep everything moving and working well, bills for over £3k in that time, Good MOT history online, full service history? seems to be a much loved motor, owned by a older gent as well.. He wants strong money for it but if its as good as he says then it should last for a good long while.. I have no experience with this car make or model, but I do know my way around a car, is there any specifics that will need to be carefully looked at, and is there anything I need to listen for as well as look for, any advice would be gratefully received.. Thanks, GT.. |

Unless of course you find one that says ST205. If so get it and save it until it's 25 years old and the Americans will be paying more than it was worth new to import it.
