What model are the white limited edition corollas with a trd bodykit and white alloys?

How old, from the last models I think they did one called a GT6 with a 1.3 engine and 6 speed 'box which were white. I could be wrong!

Thats the shape , still trying to remember what it was!

yeah, it did have a 1.3 and six speed box... can't remember what they called it though.....

Do you guys have the T-Sport there? what's it like?

It wasn't actually a limited edition as such. It was a dealer special. All dealers got 2 bodykits and the wheels, suspension kits and exhausts to fit to a basic Corolla. Our dealer did 1 1.3 and 1 1.6 Corolla. I know this as I fitted the wheels, suspension and exhaust to te 1.3 version. It was done as a PR stunt when Toyota were leading the WRC champs. The only editions they had in that shape was the 1.3 G6 with a 6 speed box which was in no way limited or the very limited G6R which came in Red or Black and had different wheels and a 1.6 engine with 6 speed box. ;)

I still like those. One of our apprentices has one and is considering a Starlet Turbo engine to drop under the bonnet.. :D

Yep we do. It's most remarkable feature is the nutter-revhead 1.8 VVTi engine. My best mate ran one for about 9 months and loved it. I hated it as it was noisy on the motorway, didn't handle and had no power below 4000rpm. The noise and kick in the back as the cam changed at 6000rpm is fun tho.

We don't see that many around, most people tend to go for the Civic Type-R instead.

The t sport only has around 130lbs of torque.

It's one of those cars that you either love or loathe - major revving needed so it will sound/feel pretty fast.

It's different :D

Saw one in Feltham today, treid to get a better look at it but was abit more nimble than my HGV :D think it was a 1.3 looked nice with tints :thumbup:

Corolla T-Sport is nice, and sounds gorgeous with a cold air induction kit on it. I do have to say though, they are not quite as quick as they sound. Certainly not a match for the CTR.
