Not much to go on, but I'm pretty sure someone on here will be able to assist:-

On my phone so can hardly see the pic, but is it a 'Toyota Corolla T-sport' type thingy?

I think it's a Corolla SR, rather than a T-Sport. Not a Toyota nerd, I know someone that had one.

Its a SR with a 1.6 or derv.

from the grille design, a Suzuki Baleno, I think they came in that colour?

Hmmmm - just checked the pics of a Baleno, and the colour is a good match .... but the grille looks too different.
Based on your replies, I still think it's most likely a Corolla, although the grille is slightly different, it could just be the poor quality of the main pic.

I love Pistonheads for almost this exact reason.

I don't think so, I've just browsed a few pics of Legacys on a well known sales site and they mostly have more chrome on the grille, either a band across the middle or a band round the outside.

On the original picture in question the car seems to have a split grille with a body-colour strip across the middle.

If it's any help. Here's the Corrola SR in that shade of blue.

Why are we identifying this car if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you for that picture, Corolla looks right.

Rest assured it's nothing sinister at all.
