6G Celicas Forums

Hi gang

I'm a newbie, and at this stage mainly lurking so I can find out more about the 6G Celica. But already I could be interested in the right car for sale in the UK, or even in a part-exchange.

At present I have a silver 98 Ford Puma 1.7. A rather under-rated and excellent little car that has given me a lot of pleasure over the last 25,000 miles or so. But so much so that it's given me the Coupe 'itch', and I've started looking around at what else is around that I can try next, and can afford (under say £5k).

One car I keep looking at is the 6G Coupe. I hear it's tough and comfy and practical and reasonable to run (for a coup), and I really love the smooth curves and double lights. An ST would do me (I'd like BHP+++ of course, but I do a lot of my own miles so I need low running costs). Preferably NOT with a ginormous spoiler, though I wouldn't object to a small one. And not silver (SWMBO says she's sick of silver cars for now). Blue would be fave with the youngest, though dark red or black would suit me best! WHY?

This looks like a good place to talk to 6G fans. Any of you guys and gals based in the UK? Any near Bristol/Taunton? Anyone not too far away got anything for sale?
