Sold the Grey celica have now bought a caldina
« on: November 18, 2007, 09:56:04 pm »
just for those not on the oc thought you might like to see my new car

its a 1997 ST215 Caldina GT-T and I feel a worthy replacement for my 185

anyway here are a few pics




















drove it back from london to blackpool is a lovely car for distance work and goes well too.

if your looking for a four replcement that still goes and suits family commitments this is the car.

I have to say though, that radiator looks like it has the usual four-radiator-rot.

yes james feel free to pop over sometime just give me a bell first.

spotted the rad in the ebay pic but thought sod it they can last a while even when they have turned the tan colour of death :-)

tis probably only a faff radiator anyway so easy to obtain
