Help! Buying A 91 Ae92 Rolla Gti 16v

July 16, 2003

Ive got my eye on a nice red 91 gti 16v ae92. Just wanted some advice on what to look out for. The dude selling it is a new mechanic ive been dealing and he bought it off his sis for %$( all.(didnt tell me how much. worth a shot :D ) Its done 86k and is in great condition. Totally bog standard inside out which i suppose is a good sign.Absolutley no boy racer mods. New tires, new timing belt,new exhaust, oil service just done and a full toyota service history. What should the asking price be roughly? Hes looking for roughly £1100 odd. Dat good? Thx for any help people.

Grab it my friend with both hands and go kill some saxo`s!!!! only thing to look out for is rusty arche`s,warn cam`s,it should also pull like a bull in a china shop!!! i bought a 1989 gti just a couple of months ago with fsh and a new respray tax mot for nine months and i only parted with £395!! and it goes like a rocket!!!

enjoy

Hi

Great car! Check the arches as mentioned before as well as the sunroof for any rust. The engine should still be good...they're built to last forever,well almost :D .You should try and haggle the price down a few hundred quid! Many good condition standard Gti's sell for under a £1000 .Check the autotrader online!

Cheers

if it's a decent car, then it's worth it. i paid above average value for my AE82 GT, but the bloke selling knew it was a right car - and it was more than £1100 btw!

but yeah, if you can, get the price down, but if the bloke selling knows he's got a straight car, i doubt he'll move much
