Maybe the RB is worth a bit now? It doesn't make any difference though - it probably won't be for sale until I get the dementia and Dan has me moved into an annex at the bottom of the garden.
Stay safe.

Stay safe.

PS. That photo was dated 2002. I've just checked the MoT history and H547CUF was last tested in 2008 (passed). I suspect it was written off (easy thing to do with a car like that) or scrapped (what a pity) a decade or so ago. |
I think a lot of people are realising new cars are disposable Alan and have decided if they're going to pay for something to sit on the driveway, they'll have something they can repair and actually like.
I had the previous gen Celica (the first of the pop-up headlamp models and what spawned the Celica Supra before the Supra became a model in its own right) and liked it a lot. Quite nippy despite being a 2.0 in a relatively heavy body (for the time) and i daresay if i still had it, would be worth a good amount now.
