Title: UK GT4 ST165 Number 1 - First Registered Car
Post by: larry on April 04, 2008, 11:42:06 pm
Hi , It is with sad regret i offer for sale this car,

After contacting Toyota GB they confirmed that it was the first official UK import car, it came to the uk partly stripped so it could be type approved for general sale.
It was the first car offered for sale in the UK with a Catalyst and requiring Unleaded fuel.
Its a very rare colour............Dark Blue metallic.
It appears in the first Uk road test by Autocar, they have also confirmed the history and i have a copy of the road test,
The condition is not bad having spent most of its life on the south coast, their is some usual rust issues but in general its not bad and worth the effort to save.
Anybody who is interested in taking on this project please pm me.
The car is located in the NE of England............Sunderland.
If i get no interest i'll ebay it.
As regards to its value..............I really don't know so open to offers, i will take all offers seriously as a change in my circumstances means i have to let this go.

Regards

larry

Very difficult to value a car like this.
Its history is priceless but it really depends on the condition of the car in the end.

Hard to say without seeing her.
Any pics??

Baest of luck
