Agree. Fapping gorgeous beasties and ours is very reliable. Probably due to the fact she only did 750 miles last year!! :O

Had mine just over 4 years now. It started life on the Toyota press fleet and was driven by JC on Top Gear.

Amusingly, I have almost that exact shot of your car at RallyCarDay last year...

Here is a video link to Top Gear, circa May 1994, and Mr Clarkson testing the 205 GT4 up against the Escort Cossie.

Thankfully the car survived the Clarkson experience and is now safe with me!

Im very tempted to buy one of these.

Just did an insurance quote and more than would insure a Sainz Special edition 1992 for only £238 quid!! mental!!

Fantastic cars for the money.

I Bought one off here a while ago, he was a member of the celica-club.co.uk but there is also another website www.gt4oc.net which is quite good. mine is only boosting 0.6 bar in and 0.8 in hight gears. What does everyone else's do?

Boost is knocked back in 1st. It should be producing in excess of 0.8 bar in every other gear. Mine hits 16psi usually (although that's assuming my gauge is accurate).

A friend runs the GT Four Driver's club www.gt4dc.co.uk/

He's in the process of building one of his collection into a full-on race car which should be interesting.

That sounds about right for a standard car. Crank it up to 1.0/1.1 bar and put a smile on your face smile

I previously owned both an ST185 and an ST205. Both were great cars and great value. The ST205 looks like a huge bargain at the moment and I still miss mine.
