Allyboy81 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Hello guys I’m fairly certain I’m gonna be letting go of my starlet solida/SR replica. I have a fairly small build thread on here if you need to look. Anyway my dad was using my starlet as his car was off the road. He was sitting at a box junction and someone bumped into the person behind him who bumped my dad. To me the damage looks like back bumper and tailgate. Insurance have written car off category S. I bought car back off insurance with the idea of fixing and putting it back on the road but having a few projects on the go I reckon I’m gonna move it on. Car has sr speedline alloys (I got them refurbed and painted by local bodyshop) they were mint until the accident but one has small kerbing. There are 5 of them so you can swap that one out if your fussy. Tyres range from new to half worn to one nearing 2.5/3mm car has tte spoiler and starlet tte exhaust (not a Yaris one modified to fit) it’s got tein springs on it a bit rusty but not snapped, glanza strut brace painted red and been modified to fit straight on (no messing with fuel filters or that)Sr Rev counter wired in from post on forum. Speakers in the parcel shelf dash dimmer, electric windows and a cheap remote central locking kit wired into original central locking. Body apart from damage is very clean being washed and polished regularly. 2 years ago I done timing belt, fan belt, 2 rear shocks, 2 rear wheel bearings and passenger front caliper.also changed plugs 12 months ago with fuel filter and air filter. Centre section and cat approx 2 years old. Car before accident was very very good with the odd small dent or light scratch. Sorry for prattling on but I like to be honest. I reckon £650 is a fair price as wheels spoiler and exhaust are worth £450/£500. I have sourced a bumper same colour which needs pained it’s got a few scuffs and a lad local to me is selling a glanza tailgate at £65 quid but is a different colour. I would rather sell as a whole as I’ve no where to break it. So £650 any questions or comments or fancy a general chat about it let me know. Cheers also I’m in Glasgow (car is too lol) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pikey009 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Absolutely gutted for you. Should be snapped up with the parts that are on it, especially that exhaust Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pikey009 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Insurance companies piss me off for lots of reasons but one in particular is the ease of which they write a car off- no one wants old cars on the road- them and the government Quote Link to post Share on other sites
