st202 gt Import dials/mileage question.. Options

[Bludge]

Hi all,

I used to have a 1.8 celica a while back, and i have been looking to buy another one on the cheap for a bit of fun as a second car.

I went to look at one today that has been listed as a 2.0 gt jap import.

The car seems in good nick for the age and the price (around £350), mechanically it seems in reasonable shape but my worry is the mileage. the clock reads about 235k, and the guy says its in km, but the speedo is reading in mph on the outside ring and kph in the inside in smaller font. also i noticed that the speedo only goes up to 110mph.

Surely that cant be correct for a jap import gt? its got the ss-II engine in it and its got a lot more poke then my old 1.8, but im a bit worried about the mileage thing.

All i can think is that the dials may have been replaced with the wrong sort? as im sure its not the 115bhp SS-I engine in it.

If anyone can offer up any advice that would be great. Im swaying towards buying it as its cheap and cheerful.

Thanks!
