Hi folks, I am finally admitting my Celica is too low, too harsh and not too cushioning in the seat department. It is quite a practical coupe otherwise.

Since the addition of a baby in the household I have started to use the Celica as a daily so the wife can use our Yaris Hybrid.

I have worked for Toyota for 25 years and have always had a soft spot for anything Lexus.

The idea is to get rid of the Celica and get an IS200 for similar funds, and do some subtle modifications.

I will be using my contact in the trade to find a suitable IS and hopefully be posting here soon.

Cheers,

Andy

Welcome to the forum. Sounds like a good plan. Good luck with the search.

Hi Andy and welcome to the LOC, we are a
friendly bunch and some of us even know how to pull them to bits and
put them back together again, with of course the one bolt and washer
left over.

We recommend you spend a couple of mins
looking over the rules of the LOC, we will be asking questions later.

Cheers for the welcome, had a look through the T&C and it's standard stuff.

I have a Thunder Grey IS300 LE with 80K in the pipeline, I hope to agree a deal tomorrow.

Here is the Celica that will be going to make room on the drive

Welcome to the club Andy, you'll love it here I'm sure. Lots of help available and with your Toyota knowledge you'll be asked a few questions yourself.

Cheers folks, I missed out on the IS300 on a dealer auction.

I'm a bit gutted but I have more time to get rid of the Celica, and wait for the right one to come along.
