  1. http://whatsyourcrack.bebo.com tis mine!
  2. I'm 20 with 0 NCB and with Admiral, parked in a garage with comuting to and from work aswell, 9,000k a year, £1,100 FC That's on a EP91 Glanza
  3. Lurvly that'll do nicely mate cheers got some nice new oil for it too it's in desperate need for it!
  4. Where abouts will the oil filter be on my ep91 1997 Glanza? Jacked her up yesterday and couldn't find it! need to know because' I'm changing it tomorrow, thanks
  5. Anyone up for a lal meet in or near Carlisle in the next few week? Got my starlet now and was in keswick last night and seen another one, first time i've ever seen another apart from my own. Think he was after a lal race down the dual-carriage way but times are hard, fuel is low and I was cruising with another 2 fella's ! (Thats my excuse lol) Is it anyone off here?
  6. This is what I mean, so many people put different answers. One says Fully while the other says semi! I've gathered fully is better, but people seem to use any old shi*e! lol. I think I'll go for 10w40 Fully syn. So is 3.5 ltrs about right?
  7. Before i start I did do a search but the 2 topics it came up with were no good. Just to make sure (because I'm doing a oil change next week) what's the best oil to use for my 97' Glanza TURBO. And how much does it take to fill from empty? Cheers, Karl.
  8. Cheers, the small switch isn't fog lights, i think it's maybe for an old alarm but not to sure. The car has clifford on the windows but there is no alarm fitted so I'm guessing the fella I bought it from took it out. The switch is just a small flick switch, has a red LED on it, and it's to the left of the steering wheel. (But not on the actual dash where the Hi/Lo boost and hazards are)
  9. A Few quick questions 1. whats the little red button near my steering wheel, dosnt do anything? (old alarm?) 2. Whats the "antenna" thing near my light thats on an extendable pole? 3. what model is mine? EPblah blah.. (P reg glanza) 4. i have a/c, but there is another button next to it called econ, whats that? thanks in advance!
  10. Evening all!, Yeh I'm chuffed with it, pictures don't do it justice, it's so clean it's unreal. I had a good look around it and it seems fine...so far! I've got plans for FMIC and I want it waxoiled to, maybe some new wheels. It's all money though, which I havn't got lol I'll take some pictures when it's better weather and I've give it a good clean! Cheers
  11. Price is £4,700 sorry forgot to write that (Not much difference I know). But hey, I like it, it will do me
  12. Well after a good look around and finally getting my bank loan I've settled on a starlet turbo Glanza to buy All seem's ok and I'm going to look at it tomoz, if all looks well I'll be driving it away aswell. Car is in Edinburgh which isn't too bad as I'm near Carlisle. It's listed on pistonheads. ---> http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/114384.htm http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/114384.htm Got a good price for it I think and it all seem's good. So hopefully I can post back tomoz with my new car just outside on the drive lol (Fingers X'd)
  13. Yeh I've heard rumours about that garage, shame really because' some of the starlets they have in seem good! Got 5k sitting here so I'll have a glanza within the next two weeks. The one I'm suposed to be seeing on saturday is a lovely emaxple, the lad is saying it might be next weekend now though because' the private plates need changed over ;) But I'm still on the lookout so if anyone knows of any? Pm me
  14. Lovely, exactly what I needed mate! Nice one
  15. Looking to buy a starlet glanza-v either this weekend or next, (Going to view one on saturday as it happens) and was wandering if there is anything to look out for? This will be my first starlet and my first turbo so any information regarding the two would be great. Few questions... Are the turbo's likely to go and at what age? What do I look for when buying? Any common faults? Area's prone to rusting? Any help will be appreciated, cheers! Karl
  16. Been getting quotes for an imported GT, best I've had so far is £900 FC and I'm 20 with 0NCB. I'm chuffed with that for the GT, but the thing is I'm after a Glanza v. Now, when I try to find the car on insurance provider's website's, I CANT! On the 5 I've tried online, there is no such thing as a Glanza V under "Toyota Starlet". Can some of the glanza owners please shed some light as to difference in IG's between the two and where to find insurance from? Any help will be appreciated, cheers!
  17. Alternativly, find a single wiper kit and do it yourself. It's not that hard. Mate of mine does it for £25 so if your near Carlisle give es a shout ;) But seriously find a "How-To" and have a go. I like them, think they look the mutts-nuts, but of course it's down to personal prefrence.
  18. I was up there with a few mates, was in ma marra's vtr, we were with a lad in a red auto focus with a bodykit and another lad in a 106Gti. Did you go? It was alright like, seen a nice skyline knocking about and a oldish fella in a van with an award winning sound system, was very loud!
  19. Did anyone here go last night? I was there for a few hours, seen about 3 starlet GT's and had a good luck at a white glanza v that was there (sexual) so cmon own up, who's were they??
  20. @lobotomy: To be honest mate I'm glad you said that because when I did my insurance quote, come to think of it, it was for a starlet GT and NOT a glanza! Might have to re-think this now lol. But I'll see what quotes I get when I have time to find some! And yeh finance is a joke like but I'm finding it hard for a loan, got a meeting with my bank on monday so fingers crossed I get my money, if not then looks like I'll have to get finance.
  21. whatsyourcrack@hotmail.co.uk soo whats your crack then eh? Feel free to add me and show me lovely pics of your starlets
  22. Thankyou! @Idrees_SR: Yes mate I would love to buy a private one, but as I said having trouble getting my loan I wanted so look's like it's the finance road for me, unless your mate will take a monthly standing order! lol @shelly_star: Yes, I'm sure they will! I've looked at Enzo's starlet (Red one with carbon bonnet?) It's just a bonny-fu*a innit! Hope to see it around. All my mate's drive ST focus's and Prodrive scoobies, I'm only 20 so insurance for one of those bad boy's would be steep, hence why I've starting looking into the lal' starlets. From what I've read up on them they seem q
  23. Hello all, I'm Karl from west-cumbria (Hi Karl.... lol) and I've just stumbled upon this site, very informative and intresting! Good work fella's! Anyway I'm currently trying to find myself a nice Glanza V, seen loads and loads but there all private sellers and as I'm struggling for my loan it look's like I will have to go down the road of getting finance. Does anybody know of any "trustworthy" garages, (If there's such a thing?) that offer finance on used Glanza'S? Not to fussed on heavily modified ones to be honest (Although they are an option) as most of them have been ragged about and
