You know its bad when...

[ChrisGT]

....PistonHeads make a seperate group in the classifieds for Starlets! They are no longer advertised under 'Other Models' as they once were - which can only mean they have gotten too popular! Could be a bad thing I reckon

 

[carlos_ep91]

indeed mate cant do good for the resale value of our motors only problem is now more chavs can get there hands on them and treat them like saxos!!!!!

 

[dmw_86]

It'll be survival of the fittest though guys. If the chavs get them and drive them like I've seen a fair few drive saxos, corsas etc, there willl not be that many left on the road after a while again anyway

 

[Toymota]

i noticed that today too

im not really worried about the resale value to be honest, true car enthusiasts know a shitter when they see one. Im just gonna pray over my car (like i do with all my motors) and make sure that if i ever sell it then its 100% right. I wouldnt let it go to some chav who would abuse it anyways.

You get what you pay for at the end of the day

 

[Nwimie]

i guess the numbers in the uk will go up before they start going down...

on the other hand it will be easier to look for starlets on pistonheads

 

[Glanza-V]

Chilll... U Have the KNOWLEDGE they have the NEONS!

 

[smythy75]

its all about tellin the chavs bugger all!!

and u do get what ya pay for, they wont get enough for there saxo's and corsa's to change to a good starlet!!

 

[Ryno]

haven't seen a GT round my way for ages!

Glanzas are everywhere tho they love to kwooze round the oneway system with 8 mates and some banging tunes through their tinny sound systems

 

[GT_Neil]

uh oh, i liked more when people have no idea what it was.

sadly a few people round here have them, who i would class as chavvy.


but are heaps really..

 

[sx_turbo]

i guess the numbers in the uk will go up before they start going down...

well this winter seems to be doing a very good job of making less starlets on the road

 

[starbogt]

even though there's quite a few around my area with starlets etc you never see them so around here we still have a rare car... never seen a Glanza in worksop!(yet)

 

[rob_bower]

^^^ well there is at least one around here andy, on a regular basis a black one but im not sure who owns it i only evey pass it on the bypass!!! but threre still few and far between. Thank god

 

[Matt_Seicentos]

theres a chav near me with a glanza but apart from that I only know of 1 other person locally with GT, so I'm doing well lol

 

[tom_hunt]

Theres a Chav that lives local to me and my cousin has got a yellow Glanza and he was talking to this other guy in his. He claims its runing 200bbhp with just a back box air filter and hks actuator. But still there is only one GT and 3 Glanzas that I can think of and you never ever see them

[EP82]

Yea there is a silver glanza owned by a chav just round the corner from my girlfriends house, no chavvy GT owners though! (it mustbe because they dont look as much like a corsa as the glanza )

 

[Beaker]

It doesnt bother me at all how many starlets I see. I like my car and if other people like them too, all the better. If Ferrari Enzos were 3 grand and quite common, would you refuse to buy one. Also the more common they become, the more people will mod them (good news for Dave, Toby, et al) and more people will crash them. That means more cheap nearly new parts for the rest of us

 

[benGT]

haha, I was on pistonheads yesterday and went straight to the "Toyota Other" section and was like "WTF?! where's all the Starlets gone?!".
Then I noticed that they've been upgraded to their own section. Quite a lot in there too!

 

[HutchGlanzaV]

I've just had 2 weeks in the UK (1 week up in Lincolnshire and 1 week down in Cheltenham) and didn't see 1 GT or Glanza. There may be alot on pistonheads but when you look at how many other hatchbacks are for sale in the UK its a tiny percentage really.

 

[y3Lo]

if a lot of chavs did start buying them and maybe crashing them might that start to push our insurance up to?
