Glanza_cl Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 hiya mate welcome to the club, tbh it's a toyota and just like a honda if you take care of them not much goes wrong. there are a fair few gt's around so finding a good one shouldn't be to hard, just check out pistonheads or autotrader. i have a glanza but they have pretty much an identical engine, if you go to see one just look around the exhaust ports, manifold etc to make sure there are no cracks or leaks, warm the engine up and give it a good rev onto boost and check for no blue smoke out the exhaust.

Markoos Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I love the crx's ;) wouldnt trade my baby tho hahaLike Glanza_cl said, they are really well built cars and if you treat it well then not much will go wrong atall.I personally wouldnt buy one over 65,000 miles so 82k is quite a good reading! anything after about 110k I personally wouldnt go for but as i said, thats a personal choice lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
