Get the Toyota Altezza instead, basically the same car, but with the tuned yamaha beams engine producing 210bhp as standard.

There fully loaded, very comfortable drive, look great with the optional styling packs.

Here is a link for common faults to look out for

none of them are in my price range kev or near me. im not bothered about speed just confort, looks and reliability. micra is going to be turbo'd very soon so this is a back up car. im £2000 to insure an is200 sport so thats about my limit

 

[Stani1029]

Now own one of these and I'd say I got a bargain. £2000 for it with not till July 2011 and tax till end of January 2011. Bad points are cd player jammed and wheels need a refurb. Apart from that it's a great car, electric everything including driver seat! Which are heated lol

strap that T28 onto it stani, and lets see it down crail (Y)

Lol Frank no turbo on this I'm afraid. It's actually a nippy thing, had it sideways already haha! This is purely a sensible family car with a few exterior mods to be done

A mate of mine at work's got one. They're easy to covert to LPG which makes 'em a lot cheaper to run .

 

[Low Rider]

have I now

Yes......

 

[Kev]

anyway..........lol!

Very good choice stani, what is the mileage on it?

 

[Stani1029]

Cheers kev it's on 99 thousand and still runs smooth. I actually love the Lexus and have no use for the micra but I have to stick at it and finish it atleast so it's worth buying/selling.
