For sale:
1995 Toyota Starlet GT Turbo. 12 months MOT, 6 months tax.
Item Condition:
Here is my immaculately presented, 1995 Toyota Starlet GT Turbo MkIII. The vehicle has covered roughly 131,700km, which translates to 82,313 miles. I am the second UK owner of the vehicle, which was imported by WRC Sales in 2007. It was firstly sold to an owner, local to myself whom owned the vehicle until March 3rd 2008, when I bought it. Since then, it has been permanently garaged and only used in dry conditions. The vehicle was SORN’d from Sept 31st 2008, until May 1st 2009, for the winter period, as I didn’t want the salt or road dirt to effect the condition of the bodywork.
When in use, the engine is never taken above 3500rpm, until the car has covered 10miles, in order for the oil to have properly established temperature. Knowing the previous owner, I can also confirm, that the car has never been on a rolling road, track day, drag strip or similar race event which may cause unnecessary damage to this pristine example.
The condition of the vehicle has been upkept by the use of only the best automotive care products available to buy, using the very latest methods and processes. Each time the vehicle is used, which is roughly 1-2times per week in the summer months, when returned, has a specific process in which is cleaned and then stored.
-Foam Lance (Covering the car in Zymol soap suds, by the use of a pressure hose)
-Two bucket washed (Where a bucket of hot soapy water, is used along side of a bucket of cold clean water, in order to remove any dirt from the wash mitt, before cleaning the next section of the bodywork)
-Rinsed
-Dried with an Autoglym Chamois Leather.
After this, the vehicle is then pushed into a centrally heated and dehumidified garage for storage.

The standard GT body kit was removed, refurbished, and painted in Honda Stealth Grey Pearl Met over the winter of 2008/09, then refitted, using brand-new, genuine Toyota clips, grommets and bolts, which cost in excess of £125. Whilst the body kit was removed, the metalwork below was inspected for rust, to which none was found, and was cleaned and waxed before the refitment of the panels.
The bodywork of this vehicle is utterly pristine, and has neither any dents, nor any rust to be found anywhere.
The paintwork is cared for using Meguiar’s 3 Stage Clean, Polish and Protect system, sealed with ZYMOL Wax and then kept fresh by using Meguiar’s #34 Final Touch Detailer, applied with a fine finishing micro fibre cloth.
