Picked this 1.8 celica up a few weeks ago, 91k on the clock, rust free, as new tyres, service history, it was needing a new clutch and a MOT, had only failed on a slight blow on the exhaust and wiper blades, so i welded up the blow, threw on some wipers, and fitted a clutch myself, now has 12months mot, a non slipping clutch and a heater far far better than my cav. My run to work in the mornings will be toasty this winter!
what are you lot driving over the winter months?

Re: my winter hack
Looks nice mate, that's my favorite model of the Celica. I don't know which Cavalier I'll be driving, whichever is taxed + MOT'd I guess....

Am I a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Well that depends on how much I've had to drink...

Turbo #1 remains taxed for the winter (in addition to the Saab) due to its early break from hibernation this year. I'll probably use it - albeit sparingly - if I need to, while Mrs Humbucker hauls herself to work and back in the Swede.
Nice work on the Celica. I'd love an ST185 GT-Four RC. Great cars. Get yourself some bigger wheels and a lowering kit
