Hi guys i dont often post on this section yet felt obliged
Had the to buy this Celica
Bought one 18 months ago and sold it 8 months later and regretted it ever since
My previous celica was like new 56 reg with one former keeper (Toyota) and covered 23,000 miles.
My newly purchased celica took me best part of a year to find yet this time seems like preparation meeting opportunity paid off!!
Car was a barn find 56 reg one former keeper (toyota) and has covered 9000 miles yes 9000 miles,this car is like new and still has the new car smell (well worth a 500 mile round trip that took 8 hours)
Love the aesthetics of these cars and will remain in my collection of toys.My other toys are totally different yet got the same sense of excitement and sleeples night as i did buying my more expensive cars.Was fortunate on this occasion that i saw the ad just as it went live Sat 8 pm and convinced the seller let me buy it asap which turned out to be first thing Sunday morning,needless to say we set off 5am so lost little or no sleep
Here she is

Wow, what a find! 9,000 miles...just amazing.

My Celica 190 has done a few more than that...


Still feels perfect though, they are bulletproof!

I used to not be that keen on the GT's styling but it's really growing on me lately. Enjoy!

Randomly clicked on this and found that it's a celica gt. I have to say the gt is a great car. My dad also has a celica gt 2 in fact both 55 reg. He really enjoys it. He drives one while the other is mostly for spare parts.
