Hi there,
Welcome to the auction of my toyota celica sports. This is not a normal vvti celica which you would find alot on the net. This is a vvtli model with 189 horsepower. This is a very beloved car and has been maintained very well regardless of the cost. I have spent alot of money in giving it the looks by putting some alloys, low profile tyres, fog lights, exhaust, sports suspension springs and alot more.
I have had this car for around two years now and have been servicing it regularly. The works i have done on it are:-
- Front back brake pads changed
- Front discs changed
- Radiator changed
- Tyres changed
- Complete clutch assembly changed

This car is a performance car and drives like anything without any shakes or noises. The sound is very nice because of the exhaust and the road grip as well is very impressive because of the broad tyres. It has the central locking working and all the buttons are working just the way they should. It has no lights on in the meter and no rips or scuffs to the interior. The exterior as well is in perfect shiny condition except the driver side wing which has a small dent without any paint damage and its hardly even noticeable.

The only bad point about this car is that the head gasket has gone and it needs a replacement. I have parked it for two months in my garden just waiting for some time to get it fixed but now as i am shifting so i would not have space to park it and the tax is going out by 31st of this month thats why i am thinking i better let it go to someone who would take good care of it. I still drive it on weekends just inside my area as it heats up after 10-15 mins of drive so its not completely dead.

The engine is very healthy and has alot of life left. The MOT is till february 2014 but it would fly through the MOT test as it has no smoke or leakage or any other problem. 

I guess thats enough for now. Thanks for still reading and happy bidding with .99p start.
Any further questions? Contact on 07947764996. If in case i do not pick up plz leave a text i will get back.  Thanks

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

Toyota Tacoma X-Runner dead

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

A report from last week indicated that Toyota will begin trimming models from its Tacoma lineup starting with the Regular Cab in 2015, but the popular pickup will lose its first variant even sooner than that. For 2014, the Tacoma X-Runner has been dropped, though the company's SR Package could fill the need of those looking for a sporty pickup.
The X-Runner has been around since 2005 with its lowered stance, aftermarket-look body kit and bright paint colors, all of which are offered available only on V6-powered, two-wheel-drive Access Cab Tacomas. The new SR Package sounds like it will offer a somewhat similar appearance, though, with a monotone exterior paint scheme in limited colors accented with smoked headlights, but it will only be offered on Pre-Runner and 4x4 models. Other changes being made to the 2014 Tacoma include a new wheel option with black finish, a wider variety of Entune multimedia features, and the option to have the backup camera display moved from the rearview mirror to the audio system head unit.

Volkswagen loses thousands of vehicles in Chinese explosion

Thu, Aug 13 2015

Yesterday, a blazing, explosive fireball erupted from a port in the city of Tianjin, in China, lighting up the night sky and shattering windows with the force of 21 tons of TNT. Hundreds were injured and the death toll continues to rise, with the most recent reports claiming 50 were killed. While the human cost of this tragedy simply can't be overstated, it hasn't taken long for corporations to look into what the enormous explosion cost them. And for Volkswagen, the answer is quite a lot. According to our friends at Jalopnik, a Chinese source claims the German giant, which remains one of the PRC's most popular brands, lost thousands of vehicles. The automotive casualty sheet lists 1,065 Touaregs, 391 Beetles, 257 Tiguans, 114 Golfs, 84 Up! minicars, 39 SportVans, and 28 Magotans (a locally built version of the Passat). While those are the only vehicles listed, the Chinese source said over 2,700 vehicles were destroyed. For example, both Land Rover and Renault lost an unspecified number of Discovery SUVs and Koleos CUVs, respectively. The explosion also affected Toyota. Its research and design facility with joint-venture partner Sichuan FAW also suffered an unspecified amount of damage. You can check out the translated source article here. As Google Translate jobs go, though, this one is particularly bad, but it still offers some details of the automotive cost of this disaster.
