I happily drive that.

Not sure I'd pay anywhere near the prices that have been mentioned already, but if I found it, I'd happily keep it

You don't think it's worth £1250?

No, I said I wasn't sure I'd pay £1,250 for it

With the prices classic jap metal is selling for these days, the condition and mileage alone should dictate a fairly decent price, despite the model not being anything special. I think you might be pleasantly surprised.

Saying that, Carinas and Corollas of that period are for some reason unfeasibly tough and just keep on going. There are still early 90's Carinas running about as taxis in Manila, putting up with the attrition of the traffic and everyday abuse with goodness knows how many miles on them.

Well... We listed the car on ebay (for £1991.00) and it sold within a day for full asking price!!! I'm not convinced they are a genuine buyer though... No feedback and only one line responses ect ect. I have requested a deposit so we will see what happens.

Watch this space... :-)

Now sold!!! And would you believe it, after getting enquiries from all over the country and even Ireland, a lovely young lad less than 2 miles away has brought it!

So if go to a JAP show next year, you may see the old girl :-)
