Thank you, email sent 🙂

Thank you everyone for your helpful comments!

Can't wait to get my hands on one 🙂

Thanks James will do, sounds like some good advice 🙂

It is a 2004 model, good mot and two previous female drivers, minor missalignment on the front headlight which was replaced but owner said was before he had the car. 72000 miles and listed for 2850 🙂

This is the drivers side, I forgot to include this pic 🙂 the cars condition was absolutely perfect inside, it was the red edition so had some great leather seats only issue was slippage on the clutch which I assume would need to be replaced, spoke to the guy and he said he would negotiate the price to include a replacment only thing that put me off was the rust in the pictures attached, maybe should take it to a local garage with him to check it out and then could be the move. Thanks for your help btw its great to have someone knowledgeable to speak to!

Thanks alot, defo will do. What do you think about the picture I linked above how bad is the rust.

I actually went to look at one today and read online about rear rust issues, how does this compare to ideal when touching some physical pieces of metal would come of.

Cheers gez, top quality advice and super helpful! Will be using this as a checklist when I go to look at listings.

Not too bad actually, around 1500 similar to alot of budget cars that are far from a celica.

I should also note im looking at the post 2000 model, the gen 7 🙂

Hey everyone, I am looking to buy a celica for my 17 year old son as his first car, ive done my research but I was wondering if anyone has any tips on what to look for with the car or if anyone is selling one currently as I thought it might be worth a quick message to the forums. Thanks alot, Elliot
