This is making me feel things I can’t afford to feel.

Estate, V6, pretty good MOT history, 1 owner from new, 4 wipers.

I’ve been lusting after one of these since I had a go in @Spottedlaurel’s, they’re amazing cars.

That's a Corona Exiv ST182 (EXtra impressIVe). Same family as second generation of FWD Celica and closely related to the Carina E. Probably the same not-so sporty 2.0 16v 130hp as the Carina. Might have the 150 engine from the GTi but I doubt it.

Amusingly the MOT check thinks it's a Corolla. Interesting car, but probably knackered.

  • Nearside Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (8.2.2)

As an aside, this is listed by that Yorkshire Car Centre outfit that’s a regular in the classic car section on eBay — but they have zero feedback. What’s that about?

They only do classifieds and all the sales are done at the showroom?

For sale in the local Isle of Wight paper

 

Was bought from the place with the white background, I’m pretty sure it was up for £5000.

Someone tell me buying this for a daily driver would be a very bad idea so I can stop justifying it to myself....

FULL 12 MONTHS MOT ON PURCHASE ++ ONLY 66000 MILES FROM NEW

 

Wasn't worth a £5 Polski wash before advertising though? I love a TCC car.
