  1. Me too. I paid more for it in the first place and spent a year doing lots of work to it. Someone has got a bargain. I'm just more disappointed it's not staying in the club but hopefully the new owner will keep it going for years to come.
  2. Hi guys, I'll start by apologising for this post, it genuinely is a bit of a 'what's my car worth' post. The reason I ask is because I've not sold a Gen 6 is many years, think my last one sold in 2014. At that point, the prices were a lot lower and there were many more available. I have tried comparing mine to others for sale but I honestly don't know what I should be asking for it. I paid £1400 for it last summer and it had been 'modified' in a non-tasteful manner. Since I took ownership of it I have spent a lot of time and money putting the car as right as I can, I really want to see the car live on with a good owner and {preferably} stay in the club. I know you never get your money back with these things but I just wanted to give the car a new lease of life. Anyway I'll stop rambling, the car's current situation is this... UK Model GT New Cambelt and Water Pump New Alternator New Battery New Thermostat Recent Oil and Filter, Air Filter and Spark Plugs Cleaned throttle body and IACV and replaced gaskets New Fuel Filler Neck I've also done a lot of de-modding and taking things back to an original (or as close to) as possible. The bodywork isn't great and could do with some TLC. Usual surface corrosion underneath but nothing major. It has just over 11 months MOT and just hit 190,000 miles. The only mechanical issue left with it is that on a long drive, the temperature needle will rise to red (usually under load/up hill) and when it reaches red, will drop back down and then hover between 'normal' and red but never actually overheating properly. Apologies again for the nature (and length) of this post, I'm actually more interested in finding the right buyer for the car than I am the price but at the same time, I do need a starting point for an asking price without asking too much. I'm also not really sure where to sell it as I've had some issues with people on eBay in the past. Any help or advise as always is much appreciated. Cheers
  3. This was my first... Bought from a co-worker in 2008 for a couple hundred quid. Sadly it had experienced a hard life before I took ownership and I ended up selling it on for a bit less than I paid for it. I'm now on my 5th Celica which is a Gen 5, I do one day hope to own another Gen 6.
  4. Just watched this video on the Car Throttle YouTube channel. Thought it would be of some interest
  5. Had my first 'nice car' compliment on Friday at a petrol station, it was the first time I'd taken the car out with the new alloys I just got. The guy said as I got out the car to fill up: "Ahh nice car, love it! Where did you find one of these?" We spoke for a minute or two while filling up and he ended the convo with: "Shame about the wheels though, should of kept the originals"
  6. I had the exact same fail on an MOT a few years back. The place I took it to had their MOT's done at the Kwik-Fitt down the road which I didn't realise beforehand. Another MOT tester shouldn't be so picky, I took mine elsewhere in the end and all was fine.
  7. Hi guys, I've been thinking of getting an aftermarket steering wheel for my Gen 5. I was just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for one, I know I'll need a boss kit too so any advice with that would be great. I've been looking at the cheap ones on eBay to get ideas, anyone know if they are any good?
  8. Happy 4 Anniversary N-Seven!

  9. Same here. Decent price and good quality
  10. Hi guys, When I first signed up back in 2012 I got sent some club stickers as part of the welcome pack. I remember they were decent quality and transferred on to the window well. I just went to buy some from the club shop and the reviews sound like they are different now, like they are a rectangular sticker rather than a transfer and are poor quality? Just wondering if anyone can tell me if they are significantly poor in comparison to a few years back? Cheers
  11. Happy 3 Anniversary N-Seven!

  12. Glad to see you walk away from this mate, very lucky by the sounds of it. I said I wouldn't get another Celica after my 2nd one, bought my 4th one last week. Very addictive cars. All the best to you
  13. Two wipers and 5 litres of oil just arrived, I'm very excited
  14. Happy Anniversary N-Seven!

  15. Cheers for the links guys. There seems to be a few options, I'll let you know how I get on. Cheers
