Hard to find a clean unmolested one these days. I wonder can they be insured on a classic policy once you already have another car?

Don't see why not, once they hit 20 years it would be quite easy.

I was thinking of trying to pick up a clean one during the winter as a easy to run weekend car. Not sure if there is any chance of insuring it however.

Test till March 19

Asking €390

I'd say there's room for haggling too as the dealer will just want rid

Good find, wonder has the dealer swapped the alloys for steelies :pac:

What type of car do you have, could you get a starter from a local scrapyard and fit it maybe.

What part of the country are you in?

colm_mcm

Definitely. Would be amusing to have one for a few weeks though. The working mans coupe is truly dead.

(I know the Celica is a hatchback!)

bazz26

There arse has really fallen out of Celica values. They used to have a following but I guess insurance at that age is killing them off.

Is 6 previous owners a concern ?

Not that many on a 12 year old car and some of it could easily be tax avoidance. As long as it looks good in the flesh it wouldn't bother me. Some service history would be nice but unlikely to have that

In 12 years? Not necessarily tbh.

It is 12 years old car, have a good look around, check if there is a service history etc...

By any chance are you selling those alloys on DoneDeal? :pac: considering them for my A3 but thinking they might be too wide.

Hah, I am but they are in ****e. I’m looking for smaller Audi alloys or even steelies

They are very wide even on the A6. My Dad had them (not these exact ones) on an A5 in 2010.

If the engine code begins with BXE then be aware that the conrods these engines have a habit of throwing themselves through the block. The fact that it made it to 242k miles would suggest it's either not a BXE engine, has been fixed at some point or is a disaster waiting to happen.

Would that be an actual DSG gearbox in that or a more primitive tiptronic job? If it's a DSG make sure it pulls away cleanly with no juddering and that it's had its oil services on time. Looks clean but does give a bit of an ex taxi vibe.

Use every gear + reverse and listen to the changes. Check all windows + door locks work
Standard checks as well as the ones mentioned

Think they are supposed to be pretty robust. Shouldn't that model have climate control?
