[Nigel]

hello
I went to see a Toyota Celica GT coupe yesterday and very much going to get it on Saturday, the only thing is they said to check the insurance. I'm 21, etc etc, and the cars an import (i live in UK) the car is a N96 reg when I ask my insurance (Norwich Union) they said the only one that comes up is 98 SS, when you type the reg in, but I know if you dont type the plate/reg in you can get GT which is the one I want, SO if the car is manufactared in 96 and its imported in 98 surely your ment to say 96 for manufacturing??

WHat does SS mean??

how is it different to GT??

Any one any good insurance in UK??
What should I look for or at before buying?

thanks hope you can help!

Comment posted, was not intended as a complaint, so dont even think about it. I was just pointing out the obvious. The only reason i wanted to write that comment was that i am sick of people telling that the Curren is not a Celica (in my country especially). It never really bothered me as I believe that the Curren's Design is far more superior than the hatchback and that the headlight cluster complements the car more than the round lights of the Celica. Lately though i became upset when I took the car to a dealership to exchange it with something else as I now have the GT4 and the guy there told me a price 30% lower than what Celis go for and used the excuse that its a Curren not a Celi.
