  1. Always up for a road run. Static car meets bore me to tears. BTW, is this a 140 only thread?
  2. If you need a new caliper, rather than a service kit, they're cheaper here.. http://brakeparts.co.uk/#!/shop/TOYOTA/CELICA/01-/CELICA%20ZZT231%201.8%20VVTI%20FWD%20-%20190BHP/Rear%20-%20Brake%20Calipers%20and%20Wheel%20cylinders If they don't come with new bleed nipples, order a couple of them too.
  3. I could be wrong here, but didn't I see a pic. of your car on another forum, with SAGA seat covers fitted
  4. I've heard many owners in Yorkshire reverse to work and back..the lower mileage on the clock reduces depreciation.
  5. Neil..that is £56, not £5.60!!!! You could buy a new tyre for that
  6. ETS have offered me an MOT test and full Air-Con service (without guarantee) for £55, but all their branches are in the East Midlands.
  7. Me Grandad wer a miner an all, wokked down pit all his life he did. He never had a motor car, but did have one of those new fangled telephones installed in the 70's. ..and just to keep loosely on topic, when he retired, he was given a Japanese watch
  8. Sorry, mi duck. Ar forgot tha's had to buy snap for tha' whippet Back on topic then
  9. This one is likely to be more than you like to spend, Neil, but you could always make an offer.. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Scion-FRS-Toyota-86-GT-86-1-34-scale-model-LAVA-Orange-metalic-/181271492652
  10. Be good to see you around again, Andy. I might even recognise you next time
  11. It's an age thing, gt. When you get older, you'll realise why they're called.."spoilers".
  12. Gen 7's (with 17" wheels), had Pirelli P Zero Assimetrico 205/45/17 88W.
  13. With extra money coming in, my first question would be..do you have a mortgage?. If so, look to increase your monthly repayments, so it's paid off earlier. Boring, but sensible. As for the Celica versus GT86 question..the Gen 7 is the better looking car, and being FWD with a hatch, a better "all rounder".
  14. Coupes are all about fashion. New car buyers have them for the aesthetics above anything else. The Gen 7, when it was announced in 1999, was considered to be very well equipped. I would have have liked to have seen a reach adjustable steering wheel, but it should be remembered that even the base model has a respectable standard spec. ABS EBD Side impact airbags Rear discs Alarm Immobiliser Electric windows Electric mirrors Heated mirrors Air conditioning Remote Central/Double locking Sony CD/Cassette/Tuner A full list price of £16650 doesn't seem to be an extortionate figure for the list above..but how did it compare list price wise with a high spec. Gen 5 or 6?.
  15. Hi, & Apart from the snow plough/ironing board, you have some both tasteful and expensive modifications on your T Sport. Amit (aka AMS) may well be able to supply an undamaged pair of door cards, when you relocate the crossovers
  16. Can you exactly describe the issue, John?..as someone on here may have had an identical problem.
  17. Moi?...as if You only bend over where mods are concerned
  18. Happy 11 Anniversary Kev 16v!

  19. You're not searching hard enough, Alistair. I believe it's Darren at "Locking Vinyl" you're referring to. I fitted a new set of OZ caps only last Friday, but I bought them on eBay for £10 delivered from Portugal. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271857469472?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=570693334246&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
  20. Yep, 215 width. My Summer rims are 7.5J, and I run 215/40 front, 215/45 rear.
  21. I was trying to wash a dark blue Focus Zetec S while this stuff was coming down late yesterday afternoon, you couldn't tell I'd washed the roof when it dried.
  22. Nooo! There aren't all that many T Sport's around, even less if Danny gets his hands on one.
