Hi there...

I'm new to this forum.. my b/friend found the link for me..

I'm looking at buying a Starlet, preferably in white and the newer model rather than the old old style..

Now being a girl, I don't know much about these cars :rolleyes: but my boyfriend and few of his friends from the GTiR forum think they're great and are looking out for me too..

They know what they're talking about.. most of them into their Jap cars, my man currently owns a 2.0l pulsar which is lovely to drive!

Anyway, I've checked insurance out on one of these and I'm looking at around £800 fully comp (that's with 3 yrs no claims and I'm 20 - 21 in May)

I would be really grateful if anyone could recommend any decent import dealers.. or if anyone knows of one of these for sale!!!

Many thanks,

Red x

Hi and welcome to the club, what sort of starlet are you looking for? Import dealers can get you turbo ones normally, or are you looking for non turbos? If you give us a clue in what you are looking for then we will try help.

:thumbsup:

Welcome :) Good luck finding a Starlet.. I believe there is a place called New Era imports i have heard good things about.. .google there name :)

welcome to the club. ;)

you can find the non turbo ones quite easily on autotrader, if your looking for a turbo starlet (glanza) there are quite a few owners on here that'd be able to give you some advice, good importers etc...

Hi again and thanks for the welcomes!

I'm looking for the turbo version.

I have found one.. but it's in bl00dy Devon! A nice 4 and a half hour trek for me and whoever I drag along!

Sounds a nice enough motor, but you never know really do you? Sounds too good to be true with such a cheap price tag.. but won't hurt to have a look..

Here's the ad..

It's a 93 white starlet

Engine rebuild 2.5k ago with forged pistons, ported and polished head.

ARC Intercooler

Adjustable suspension plus other mods

£3450 ono

Thanks for the links aswell.. will take a proper look tonight when I get in from work.

my bro found a 96 glanza v in black for 3k the other day somewhere at an import garage in west lancisher i think but ill ask him when i eventually can get hold of him.

what pulsar has your boyfriend got as my 2 best mates have pulsars one whos is an absolute animal has driven my glanza and says mine is more fun and actually feels faster cause of the weight difference even though unfortunatly its not

Hi Red

If you are looking for a newer shape starlet? What shape are you looking for, because if it's a 93 starlet it will be the older shape on, newer shape start from 96 i think.

Here is a pic.

Aww welcome to the club, iam a new member on gt turbo forum, don't go on there much though :P

Never driven the GT starlets before, bet they are nice :thumbsup:

Posted

All I can say is that they are GREAT FUN!!!! :D

Posted

I am ideally looking for the '96 shape onwards.. but am gonna take a look at the '93 one anyway..

They're just proving sooo hard to find near me..!! GRRR

Jim, if you could ask your brother about that black one that would be great.. thanks.

My bf owns this site.. www.pulse-2x.com and his car is in the members cars section... you can just view the site without having to register... but alternatively, registering would be great is he's created the site for his uni project!!

I'm sure you can find it on the GTiR forum too thou somewhere.. his username is Jonny H...

I can't tell you much about his I'm afraid.. apart from it's white, is standard, with a 2litre engine! (told you, typical girl.. only just starting to learn more about cars!! *rolls eyes*) It's lovely thou.. really like driving it.

Which is why I really wanna get a nice lil starlet, to get me started off in the Jap turbo world...!

That was a nice photo posted up by the way Shelly...

Hi there :yes:

Jim there is a black 96 glanza S at keighly trade center NON turbo though.

Try Cassius (powimport) on www.toyotaownersclub.com for a Glanza he's usually pretty good at finding them they do come up for sale every now and again depends on how long you can wait for one.
