Mel85 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) Year: 1992Model: EP82 GT TurboTax: 3 monthsMOT: 5 months (feb 2014)Mileage: 95k milesDescription:Reason for sale: My husbands been doing the starlet up for me over the last few months, but he has recently suffered a heart attack due to a virus (hes only 29!), so its likely he wont be doing anything with the cars for a while, hence the sale. Good Points: GAB Shocks & 40mm springsHKS induction kit including hard pipe5zigen exhaust system including brand new flexiDecatted exhaust (still have the original cat, and i'm happy to sell this with the car if you have any concerns about the MOT - which you shouldnt, as this is a 1992 car - but just in case, its yours!)Dump Valve15" Rare Momo Alloys with 4 good tyresBoost gauge fittedOnly advisory on last MOT was milky headlamps, which have been 1500 graded, 3M cutting compound and T-cut treated to bring some brightness back to them.Cars solid underneathNo rust on bodyworkEntire new boot floor section fitted, welded, and hammerite treated - all done with original panels/at the seams.Momo Champion Steering WheelD2 Gear knobEngine runs faultlessly, boosts perfectly to 0.8 bar every time.New wipers all roundCar has only done a few thousand miles in the last 5-6 years. (around 5k)Despite being stood for a further 6 weeks since my husband heart attack, the car started first time today.CAT 2 Cobra Immobilser + spare fob/key Full wheel alignment and tracking done 2 months ago.All MOT's present since import (2006) - only 2 owners including myself since import We only pay £220 insurance fully comp for the year on a classic insurance policy with Performance Direct, and thats with mirrored no claims bonus, as this is my 2nd car, with all modifications declared. (i'm 28) Bad points: -Paintwork has various scratches, dings and scuffs, and would benefit from a respray in the long run. I must stress there is no rust on the bodywork, just peoples carelessness over the cars 21 year life, so dont expect a gem. If we were keeping the car, it is something we would definitely get done.-Interior plastics are a bit tatty but they are 21 years old, and there is one plastic piece in the boot missing. (centre back around locking mechanism)-No parcel shelf-Rear brake discs/pads need replacing as they have gone rusty from being stood, but these are pretty cheap to replace or do yourself.-Needs a battery bracket... surely a £10-£15 jobby from someone breaking one.-Driver side wind deflector has been broken so its been removed. Original Toyota one still fitted to passenger side.-rear window tints have been removed as they were bubbling.-alloys have a few marks.-driverside electric window has stopped working. All in all a VERY VERY reluctant sale. Were it not for my husbands health situation this would not be up for sale as I love driving it. Shes quick, handles well, fun to drive, never lets me down. Price: £1400 ovno - no jokers or canvassers thinking they're going to get this car much cheaper than this. I've tried to be as honest as I can in the advert. for a little work and money this car would fetch a lot more than £1400, we just haven't got the time now. (please note - pictures taken before 5zigen exhaust was fitted)Contact Details: please contact my husband John, on 07984 190133 if you have any questions, or message me on here.

Fro Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Not sure if Ive missed something, but this looks like a bit of a steal for someone! Personally think you could have advertised for more but thats me. Also nice to see a mk2 front bumper still in tact!

Mel85 Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share Posted August 28, 2013 just sourced and ordered replacement drivers side wind deflector (original toyota part) and replacement electric window motor/regulator/mechanism so thats 2 issues resolved. will just require fitting. as stated in the advert, we're not interested in silly offers or anyone getting the car on the cheap. we've already turned down £1200 due to the amount of interest in the car, and this is the only place its listed so far.
