He did get back to me, he said he took the car in as part ex and the information in the ad was supplied by the prev owner. He now wants me to give him some advice on how to advertise it...
Hmm seems my email back fired. I was hoping to get him all riled up not for him to ask for help lol
Lol, sorry about that!
I'll have to find out where he is, I've got an old 1.4 Astra ready for the scrapper, maybe I can pass it off as a super special VXR edition

It looks like a Porsche boxster S badge to me.
That's what I had in mind (had just seen the Boxster S wheeler dealers episode) but now I think it's slightly different.
What a loser! People like that piss me off because some person who has no idea of Celica is going to buy that car thinking its a TRD edition. Sellers like that fall into the same group of bellends who advertise 140s as 190s!!!
I may of dropped him a message asking how its a TRD edtion when clearly its a Eurospec TSport. Also asked what mods have been done to achieve 210bhp. Waiting a response.
When I come to power sellers like this one will be punished and fined for their actions
Couldn't agree more, there's also a lagoon blue 140 on AutoTrader at the moment labelled as a T Sport. Even has a VVTi badge, with cloth interior and 16" wheels. Even if its an accident people should be more bloody careful.
Lets see if the guy gets back to you

Also all Gen7's are built in Susono, Shizuoka, Japan not sure where you got Mexico from! ;-)
Don't know if it came across properly, mocking his salesman tactic, "imported new from Japan". Every Celica is imported new from Japan!
The 'S' badge is bugging me now, not sure what car it actually belongs to. Looks familiar though.
Love how he's removed the 3 post spoiler, thought "oh shit, there's a hole! How can I hide it?.. Ah! Another TRD badge, that'll do!"

I give you the limited edition Toyota S Celica TRD T Sport V,V,T,L,I with full TRD - 210bhp
If link doesn't work it's item 261184591905
Oh my. It was also officially imported from Japan from new (unlike all other Celicas, which are presumably built in Mexico?)
It's no fun looking for a decent car, but you do get the odd laugh

Mine arrived in the UK with the usuals - a couple of yen coins, some Japanese flyers and stickers. Also had a receipt for a new battery.
Was expecting a front lip as well, was shown in the pics and was mentioned on the bill of lading before I got the car (car was on Tein springs, and they had to take it off otherwise it wouldnt get on the roro) but some dock worker either here or in Japan fancied it for themselves and nicked it!
Haven't seen it mentioned but are the yen coins supposed to be a luck thing?
eBay find....

Yeah, noticed it yesterday
Seriously I'd give him £3,000 if some of the (in my opinion) tackier mods could be removed without damage. Get the boot hole sorted. It's looks like a nice car otherwise! Looks like its already gaining interest though.
