FAO Hate / GT4 ST205 owners

[megakid]

I think I am right in thinking that Hate has a Celica ST205 GT4, just wondering if you could give a brief summary of costs you've faced as I'm budgeting over this next year and I want to see if I can actually afford one! (Please result in the answer "Yes" lol)

Plus if you have any other comments with regards to purchasing/owning one I'd be greatful!

Cheers,

James

yarr, yes I do have a GT4

£60 to fill the tank ~ 280-350 miles
watch out for the front suspension, they use superstruts and at about 60,000 miles they cost about £1000 PER SIDE to replace (if they start to clunk).

er, thats all i've really spent on it is fuel and mods.

Servicing and parts are generally OK cause the car was availiable in the UK, there are always plenty of specialist independant garages for the 3S-GTE engine

Insurance for me, fully comp through sky insurance with all mods declared (relief valve and a couple of body mods) is £650. i'm 24, street parking with 6 years no claims
