Don't know about mentalists... but good luck with the sale Rich! There's been a few people after SCs recently (myself included, but I'm a sucker for T-bars, which is a shame as this seems to be a great example of a rarer car!) so hopefully you'll get some interest through here!

Thanks guys, hopefully will go to a good home. Would love to hold onto her but other responsibilites force the sale.

This really is a perfect example, a few good ones are still coming over from Japan, this is ideal for someone who wants a showcar with a little more money spent.

3/4 of the nuts and bolts on the underside are silver, no rust! Amazing when you think about the age.
Forgot to mention:

Full Toyota tool kit (double sided spanners etc)
Space saver wheel with Bridgestone rubber

£3900 if you want standard alloys instead of the MK3 chromes and rubber.

Tokico shocks all round, click adjustable.

This might sound like a really stoopid question, but what sort of mpg do you get from it?

Hi Gordy, its actually a question Ive asked myself of other SC owners and a calculation I just made yesterday when driving down south!

The results have shocked me though and I'm double checking my sums to make sure this is correct!

Filling my tank when on the orange low light was on: 33.37 litres = 7.3414 Gallons

300 motorway miles on that tank

300 / 7.3414 = 40.86 mpg

I know the tank has a higher capacity but at 300 miles there was still some left.

This confirms that the car does not have the oversize pulley and has a tight non abused engine!

Hi Rich - did you buy the wheels polished or get them done?? Either ay they really compliment the grey metallic. Very taken by this, it looks superb :thumleft:

Thanks Huw, I bought them chromed from America, I think they must have been reconditioned or new over there and then chromed. I was a little sceptical at first when I put them on but they have grown on me!

Very nice - what do the standard wheels & tyres look like?

Thanks,
Gary.

Hi Gary, a set of standard alloys will come with the car if your not after the chrome ones, hopefully with some half decent rubber as well!

Pete, just let me know about the weekend....

This has to nearly be the ultimate MK1 apart from the grey over silver one. If I didnt already have a tintop I would go for thsi in a heartbeat and if I thought I could sell mine quick enough I would have this one as I so want this colour in tintop!

I think grey over silver can look the part definately but it is definately some 80's homage! Its like them wood effect colours you find on big wagons! The wood effect smashes it!

Gun metal grey definately brings a new dimension to the 2!
