So the A3 tdi and the k11 Micra Si 1.3 are heading off to new ownership. The search for a fun beater has turned up a rather unusual vehicle that I never actually knew existed! Very very common vehicle but just a very unusual spec. Updates to follow tomorrow when collection begins!

Title change

My money's on a base spec Audi TT.

With a 4-speed gearbox, an analogue clock in place of a tachometer, and fragile shiny grey interior plastics like an unpainted Airfix kit.

Bon appetit.

That is as poverty spec an Audi as I've ever seen. Quality.

I want to make one now

K11, Prefacelift Diesel. If it is - dibs. Not even sure one exists in the UK. Can't say I've ever even seen one in the wild anywhere else in a picture or anything. But they do exist!

What’s unusual about a Corolla diesel?!

Chodspeed. 
 

 

My guess is a rover 75 in British ringing green with a Panama hat on the parcel shelve and shakin stevens tape jammed in.

you bought the bus

So here it is. Little Yaris SR.... 12 odd years old... and an 1800cc. Never knew they were a thing until a couple of days ago.. and this was the only one for sale in Ireland (north or south).

basically an updated or de-tuned Celica 1.8VVTi engine with 133bhp.

It’s an absolute hoot!!!

[hairnet]

westlink land speed record?

 

[Faker]

with a bit of love and a little detail... it’s a pretty decent wee car. nippy wee bugger too!

Guinness is good for you...

[hairnet]

you are the irish 6 cylinder and i claim my pack of taytos (hai)

[Datsuncog]

Should be brave and nippy with the 1.8 in it - sounds like the sort of things Australians would confect for no real reason.

Is it badged as a T-Sport, or just standard enough trim but specced with a big motor?

It’s an SR. Bucket seats, fancy front and rear bumpers, side skirts and a boot spoiler etc. Drives just like my old Group N (EG) Civic rally car I had about 20 years ago! Right rapid wee thing - not exactly blistering in the slightest.... but more than capable

That looks like fun ...................so it does.
