A 2400 TD, I like the interior, (both colour and design)

HFM? I know one of these nasty 4 headed monsters is the ultimate SD1 on here, but in the real world , I’d expect twice as many cylinders  and immaculateness for that sort of money.

Has this got the engine with the timing chain that bursts out of the timing cover, 
after it’s deposited a loud of aluminium swarf into the oil pickup ?

Drowned my 1.2 Corsa (first car) in 15w40 and this seemed to aid the chain slap

Meh.  Toyotas are beloved by the Asian community, and many of them live in Bradford.  I'd be 101% fine buying from a chap at his home in Bradford.  Bomb site trader?  Not in a million years - but this looks like a goodun.  Establish if it's his and, if so, how long he's had it - and you could be onto an absolute winner.

 

EDIT:  MOT history isn't great.  Might be a patchwork underneath, may have been done very nicely.  You won't know until you're on your back with your legs in the air.

Probably sans axle by now as the 2.3D axles is worth a few quid.

If they were flipping it then yes they’d likely whip the diesel diff out and stick one in off a 1.8 or something.

This for me is the money shot for the car...those "stalks"

Wonder what is going on with the duplicate set of kentekenplaten? I thought you could only get a duplicate set  made if one or both  were stolen. Then you get a duplicate code added to the copy. These are not on the car.

Those alloys look wholly inappropriate, but a pre-face lift Corolla saloon is a rare beast outside of EIRE.  WLTM

That Carina E sounds like a nail underneath going by the past fails on the test, it’s probably no small coincidence the test runs out in 3 weeks, he’ll have been told last year it’s in the dire straights.

Still should not have copies of the plates. The Blue band is obligatory on a car of this age is it?

Expand  

The blue bit is part of the GAIK plates (which are obligatory since iirc 2002 on all cars with yellow plates) but back then handing over the old plates wasn't something that was very strictly enforced. It isn't uncommon to have an old car with a current and old set of plates. Of course, you're officially not allowed to drive around with the old style plates...
