Here for sale is my Toyota Starlet SR which is finished in 040 white and pretty much standard and unabused. I bought the car towards the end of the Summer but due to a change in circumstances, I am unfortunately now having to part with this car. This is my fourth Starlet; they are fantastic little cars and I planned on keeping this one forever as my daily driver due to the condition and low mileage.

Recent work includes new front discs and pads, a new rear wheel bearing and four new tyres; Kumho's on the rear and Toyo's on the front. The car is in exceptional condition for it's age and wants for nothing at all. I bought the car off a forum member and it was last serviced around September time just before I bought it, having all fluids and filters changed including coolant and brake fluid. The car has a large history file with all original booklets, many receipts and 3 keys altogether.

Bodywork wise the car is very tidy, with just a few tiny marks; the only really noticeable one being a 5 inch scratch on the passenger door which has been touched in and is hard to notice. The 15" Speedline wheels are all unmarked, having recently been refurbished in gunmetal grey - only one wheel has one small amount of flaking on one spoke (around the size of a 5p coin.) Since buying the car I have fitted OEM Toyota clear indicator lenses on the front and 12x6 BSAU marked import size numberplates.

The car is almost entirely original to it's limited edition SR specification; the only items missing are the TTE backbox (as you'll know extremely hard to find one with nowadays due to most having rusted away) and it's missing it's SR emblem on the rear bootlid. I removed this as I wanted a cleaner look to the rear, however replacement stickers are easily obtainable on the Starlet forums.

The car drives flawlessly, and really feels like a brand new car still. The new tyres were only put on due to previously having cheap "ditchfinder" brands which I wasn't happy with - they were all nearly new but I binned them off for some decent branded rubber and it has returned the handling back to how it should be - brilliant! Hopefully most of you know how capable a Starlet is with the right suspension and good tyres it's really hard to fault how they handle. The car has been a superb daily driver for the last few months and it will be really hard for me to let the car go!

I'm asking £1300 OVNO; I'm in absolutely no rush to sell the car so will not be entertaining any silly offers or swaps. No part exchange I'm afraid, already have two other vehicles at my disposal. Some of you may notice this is pretty much what I paid for the car a few months ago but I've parted with over £400 to bring it up to a better general standard than when I got it, so I feel the price is justified
