Dale SR Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 (edited) I got this wee GT MK2 on Tuesday, My first turbo car after 3 years off 4EFE! Shes really clean 1 uk owner since import, 10 months MOT, Shes completely standard bar a momo steering wheel, She has only 47,300 miles on her, Optional wind deflectors, optional Mats, really clean wee car, interior is like new. Alloys are really shady though. Has all her japan service stickers, fuel ones ect, shes barley been touched. Never seen a snowy salty road. underneath is in amazing condition a 21 year old car. Only thing she is a automatic but i doesn't bother me as the originality of the car was more important. I am really chuffed with her she pulls really well for an automatic, she really surprised me. Few pics of her..... Edited May 15, 2014 by Dale SR Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JamesD89 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Looks nice and clean mate, good mileage too. The auto's are a bargain and overtaking is good fun, keep her running on 15s imo. I have recently converted mine from auto to manual and overall cost was around the £600 mark including labour and some postage from Ireland. Well worth doing though my auto box did not respond well to mods. Enjoy James Quote Link to post Share on other sites
