Evening all I've got chance of a barn find celica gt 4wd st185 in black
I've not viewed the vehicle I'm I right in saying it's a early gt4
I'm going to view it in the morning but the owner wants 400 quid I can't seem to find any to cross reference if it's worth the money or not any ideas guys

I'll give you £1,000 for it if it's decent.

That's an awesome bargain for £400! I remember I used to mot one of these for a guy years ago and thought it looked like a right pain to work on lol. Did the brake test on the road and the police saw me driving on a side road slamming the brakes on and pulled me over. When they saw I was doing an mot test they then decided to do me for no seatbelt.

Love these, was looking at buying one myself back in the day but went for a Sunny GTiR instead! Proper retro classic status now & what a bargain

As said what a good buy I would of thought 1-2k still would of been cheap and such a iconic car as well will watch this this with interest
