Hi guys decided to join after visiting the site a few times over the years.I have a 1995 Starlet GT Advance completely standard I bought this in Dublin in 2001. I did get a set 15 inch alloys for it as the ones it came with were not to my taste.I intend to keep it original .My car is in mint condition with 106,000 kilometres on it, there was 46,000 km on it when I got it. I don't use it as my main car but like to drive it, cheers,Eoin.

Hi Jay, thanks for the welcome.Interesting you mentioned the rarity of the GT Advance mine is the only one I have ever seen! Do you roughly how many are on the site? I can put up a few pics of my one soon.Nice thing about driving these is guys with Starlet GT"s give you a wave if they see you on the road. Got a Capri 2.8 as well so same friendly nature of like minded people,cheers Eoin.

Looking forward to pics mate.

Numbers wise there weren't many to begin with in the grand scheme of things. The Advance was only available between Dec 94 and March 95 so it's great to see them on the road, not surprised you are getting waves from fellow owners!

Hi Jay, I took pics of my car today but seem to have no permission to add attachments to my posts, do I have to wait a while before I can upload images ? Cheers Eoin.

Looks very fresh indeed Eoin, loving the engine bay snap. You've even got one of the wooden wheels we all used to laugh about when these cars first started appearing!

The V distributor should fit and function fine so long as it's a 4EFTE. From memory I've swapped them about in the past. I can always have a look through the stockpile at the weekend for a spare if you can give me the number you are looking to match it with.
