With a decsion il probably regrett iv decided to chop the fabia in and buy something older so that i could pay off the finance i owed and i also fancied something jap

So the fabia is away tommorow too a second hand car dealer that my dads work deals with so im getting a reasonable price for it

Should hopefully be picking the new car up in a day or two http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/toyota/celica/stunning-toyota-celica-gt4-st205-wrc-deposit-received/1067884

Il be sticking around on here as its a brilliant forum which some great people( a few not so but thats to be expected)

Best of luck with the Celica Stu, hope it works out for you.

Is the future now silver though?

Thing is i hate silver cars jerry, but this lools suprisingly good in silver

Im planning on wrapping it green at somepoint anyway .....although thatl probably be from leaves falling from the tree iv just wrapped it around

Really hope it snows this week so i can try out the 4wd though

These looked really good in red though

A mate had a red one, nothing beats green though.....its the fastest couler

Oh, one of those dyno's :):)

do stay around stu, and bring the toyota to meets , you will still be welcome, just be careful with it, it may be 4WD but its old tech , I've driven one, and they can be very "twitchy" when pushed, with no ESP to back you up, the owner of the car i drove span it 360 and was shocked, as he really wasn't hooning around... he just turned into a side road at "normal" speed (well thats what he tells me! lol) if It has crap tyres, put something GOOD on for a start it did win a few rallys though

have fun

First day of having 4wd and its snowing...thats got to be a good sign

Good luck with it. Just bought one on GT5 to see what it's like and it's a green one too Just make sure you stick good rubber on it, make sure it's all tracked right and it should be great fun. Always had a soft spot for Jap cars

Awww man! shame to see you go. Wish you all the best with the new car

Cheers guys gave it a bit of a blast on the way home from wprk and once it hit full boost i shat myself....its mentaly quick and theres no drama about it with the 4wd its just a big massive shove in the back

Sounds like your having a good time with it then!

Wish I had 4wd or rwd in the snow. I love driving in it.

Just remember that if you start to slide, DON'T LET THE GAS GO.

Otherwise, you'll spin =)!

I see what you meen dave, nearly spun it trying to put to much power down throigh a bend in the wet.... Kinda pooping myself at the fact it has no abs either, gonna take alot of getting used too

I would suggest a track day push it in various "simulated" extream conditions, to see how it reacts, then you will feel more comfortable on the road

edit: you comming to castle combe in April? not much money for 15 mins on track

edit again : lol.. but its a "real" car without all the electronics learn it and enjoy

MMM , not sure thats good advice at all, if it starts to go back off the gas a little , dont just step off it , same as a front wheel drive really

Get yourself signed up for Japfest at least , its a must attend for jap car owners , bit of a trek for you though

Always Banzi at crail during the summer, thats the biggest mag day.

Going to give it a wash and polish when im home from work so il get some pitures uploaded and il start a project thread for it aswell
