mart1 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 (edited) Well with me recently selling my glanza v I thought it was time to move on from them with me having 2 glanza v's i quite fancied a starlet GT for next summer, anyway I was having a nosey around like you do and this turned up, Toyota caldina gt-t st215 4wd semi auto, it has The 4th generation 3S-GTE engine 260bhp, basically all the running gear as the celica gt4, the car is not far from new with only 28000km which is 17398 miles.

Cammy R Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 looks good that whats the going rate for one of those? Link to post Share on other sites
mart1 Posted November 24, 2015 Author Share Posted November 24, 2015 (edited) Cheers, I paid £4500 for this which is very good considering the very low mileage and condition it's in, I don't think there will be another with this mileage to be found, it's alot of car for the money :-) but like starlets they vary in price, there was one on here for sale last year going for £3300 some mods on it, the mileage was 88000 miles, they are super rare car over here nice to be in something different and the car gets lots of looks.

mart1 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) A bit of an update, bought some new BC coilovers and managed to get hold of gt4 alloys, what do you recon ? Edited January 14, 2016 by mart1 Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Like this car as I said. Not into those wheels at all tho. Link to post Share on other sites

mart1 Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Like this car as I said. Not into those wheels at all tho.l couldn't be doing with the original 15 inch rims and 205 60 fat tyres, the alloy on now are 16 width 7 1/2 much wider and love them.I had looked into getting 17 inch rims but after looking at pics of other people's car with 17s on just don't look right to me, oh well I guess I'm old school and like things looking retro.

mart1 Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 sweet car they always remind me op a ep91 wagon ha ha 3sgte power that rear arm rest cupholder is smart cheers,they have got a look of a starlet but grown up, they are a great car to drive & I'm surprised not many have been imported to the UK over the years like the glanza & GT, you can get one for the same money around £4000 a lot of car for the money and Subaru impreza wagon performance plus the car is easy to work on.

mart1 Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Cheers:-) however the brakes are shit I would say there as bad as starlet brakes and for something that's 260bhp and heavy it's scary but apart from that it's a cracking motor. Link to post Share on other sites

pockrockgtti Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I love the caldinas, i was trolling the auctions for a couple of months trying to source a nice grade 4, manual car. I saw loads of autos in that time, and only a handfull of 5 speeds. I gave up in the end and bought a Subaru Legacy GTB. Link to post Share on other sites
mart1 Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 These are semi automatic and no difference in performance, love it and would never go back to manual car. Link to post Share on other sites
