Wel I thought id join this site after the influence of Cian Ryan on this
I currently drive a mk1 gt turbo starlet and goin back oem with it now and engine bay is in need of a serious clean but body work is pretty ok only minor marks which are to be expected on a 23 year old car but I will get around to it
Iv been collecting optional extras along the way Iv about 23 now I'll get pictures up at a later date

If it's a 23 year old car 1992 model it's a mark 2 surely? 1987 was mark 1

No it's a 1991 car it's a mk1 90 to 91 was mk1
92 to 93 was mk2
94 to 95 is mk3

Ep71 was boxy starlet

Got a few bits done to my car today with a BIG BIG BIG thanks to Matty for the help I can't thank him enough and had a great laugh doin it as usual

First off we started with the rocker cover sanding it down and spraying it up and the same with the cam cover and came up very nice really does a lot for the car

Next we done the oem exhaust on the car which I am extremely happy with finally got rid of the ****ty one on it

No way really that's a super super rare colour you have there if only ever seen 1 of them in my life in the UK
Where abouts are you I'd love to meet up and have a look at both yours and your friends starlets

Email me with pictures of both cars mate darraghmahon@outlook.com I'd love to see them both

I'll remind him of the thread later, hasn't been much since the last update though.

Darraghmh91. · 03-12-2015 12:24am

I must pull the finger out and get a few updates on this thread
Not a whole lot happening to it really just 1 or 2 parts from Toyota and right now it's in getting the bumper and wings sprayed from damage on the bumper and laquer peel showing its ugly face on the wings so when I get it back I'll be sure to put pics up

Was sold on last year, he’s now driving a maroon, 1.6 diesel Skoda Superb.
I wish I was joking.

:D That's a pity, bought a set of watanabe alloys from him a few years back.

Did it stay around Dublin?
