I bought my glanza for £4000 mate. Thats roughly the price to pay for a decent one. The reason for this is they are a rare and very sought after car. On top, you get toyota reliability and turbo power! If you manage to get your hands on a decent one, you'll realize that the £4000 you just paid, just goes straight through the back of your mind.

The good thing about glanzas is they do hold the majority of their value, don't be surprised if you lose a grand if you were to sell it in a couple of years time.

if you want a good one you pay the price for it.. enough said!

I first looked at buying a Glanza 3 year ago, prices aint changed much since then.

WHere were u looking if you dont mind me asking??

[Demode]

paid £4200 for mine a month ago, looked at a few like urself and like you found a couple of them are binners. Look hard enough though and youl find a good un.

Like everyone else says and like i found most of them are priced in that sort of bracket but believe me probably the best 4 grand ive ever spent ;)

P.S

if your close enough to leeds, theres a place called chequered flag that sell some minters, completely standard and low milers, like i said if your close enough take a look

Cant see Glanza's going down in value anytime soon, they have'nt really changed in value since I have been on the scene (3 years)

But as said keep looking until you come across a minter, and obviously the more you pay the better it should be

@Physco loving the colour scheme on the Glanza BUT the black tailgate ruins it!!

i paid 4300 for mine was up for 4800 and TBH its a absolut eminter and was offered 5.5k a few days later the more u spend the better it will be. My friend paid 3.5k for his and has blew his engine 2 shocks and a steering rack

[Idrees]

A guy local to me is selling his 96 Black Glanza for £2.5k

I don't know him very well but I've seen him driving about now and then and he seems to look after it pretty well.

I've seen the car close up at a Starlet meet last year and tbh it is pretty mint.

If your interested I'll dig some pics out from the meet and can get you his phone number.

[SCOOBY-MODDERS]

Must be an auto at that price lol

[Miller_Ep91]

cheers for all the comments guys. im gunna spend the 4000 in get the one i really wont , went and looked at it again yesterday and all i can say is im in love haha. thanks again

[SpeedFreak]

Its worth the money if you really like it!

I was really lucky with the price I paid for mine!

But I have found, that most starlets from dealers are around the £4.5k - £5k mark. But obviously with most you get warrenty and full 12months mot.

Where as from private owners you can get them alot cheaper. As said, it depends on whats on it and how much that person spent on it.

Im selling mine and put it up for £4800, just because I want £4600. And people always try and knock you down.

[Glanza-Love]

my lil V cost me only £3500 ... minted condition only minor problem was someone had a go at the drivers lock damages is minimal and basicly got me the car cheap with alot of modds already on it!!!

problems with mines were minimum! paint flaking from the mirors that was the worst and thats getting sorted and my front bumpers getting redone and smoothed and that will get done for cheap, my cars stunning but that was a fluke buy i had to jump on.

been and seen hangers my self .. but that you could force to knock some money off and repair it for cheap

[scutch0]

theyre not that expensive now... i paid 5k for mine standard 98, and i knocked him down from £6200! and as you can see above you can get one for about 4k now.

tell sicaln that theyre expensive... he'll probably keel over backwards!
