+1

Not to mention the shopping trolley handle on the boot, dust everywhere. And as for who legally owns the car... you could have the previous tenant turn up and claim his car back.

Was it owned by the guy who used to own the bar Barziko (think that was its name)?
Cant remember his username as this was many years ago now though.

He could most definitly have bought a GT4, but the car I knew he owned was most definitly an auto, and I dont remember it being a turbo. It doesnt mean this ISNT his car, its just not the one I know.

???

That car is obviously a real GT4, look at the gas tank.

No Celica GT4 ever came auto either. E153F and E154F, 3SGTE was never ever mated to an A154 in a Celica from factory, first 3SGTE auto was probably in a Caldina.
