New to this one, where am I?
Hello all... Celica number 5………… and I think the best yet. Went up to Telford last night to pick up the Celica, What a drive with a guy that only just past his test and sat at 70 all the way, plus having to drop my lady off before hand, we set off 1hr 20mins late….. Got there around 21.30, had a brew, and a look over, looked super, a bit of paint missing from the front, a ton of service history, and a near fully stamped book. Wheels need a tidy, 2 original keys, cam belt done 14k ago….. And 64k on the clock!!! Anyway, returned and got back at 12.15 last night having him follow me all the way back, yawn, at work for 06.00… so not making much sense at this point. Here she is anyway. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Standard???????? Wow.
Yeah, Toyota can't compete in the American high-performance market, the cost would be too high. Not to mention nomatter how much top end power u get out of a high revving 2.0L, you can't compete bang for buck against a 3L or 4L or 5L or 6L American tank. Top spec JDM Celicas were quite expensive in their time. It's just because their laws force them to upgrade to protect their industry that the once expensive high-tech high-performance cars they pump out turn into dirt cheap used imports for the rest of the world. -------------------- Mike W
