The missus was looking at the Corolla (non T Sport) before she got the Civic but they were too expensive with prices being over £3k. The T Sport doesn't seem to hold it's value that well. Plus don't forget I've got the genuine TTE kit, lowering springs, wind deflectors, MP3/Bluetooth Alpine HU and professionally installed bluetooth handsfree.

The HPI check I did values this car at £3,500 but that is if you buy from a trader.

Just caught up to this, nice looking car, very decent for £2k! I'm guessing it's a UK car? Always wonder why people put import sized plates on.......

E55EX_RACER The one I'm going to look at says it has 2 keys. So what if there is only 2 black ones or would 1 of each be ok? I'm assuming new keys are programmed from the grey one?
Are the Toyotas upside down key-wise to Lexus then? We have the same 2 black keys and 1 grey one, but the black ones are the masters and the grey is a valet key that can't open the glovebox or boot.

Yes it's UK registered, the seller had a few queries about the square plates with people thinking it was an import. The front plate is water stained though so I will probably put normal size ones back on.

This car has 2 black keys and I've have been told the same about the grey one, it's a valeters key. I will never take my car to one so don't really need it.

It's actually valet as in valet parking - basically means you can give the key to them but if locked by the key they wouldn't be able to get into the glovebox or boot.

I've never used mine at all though!

Awesome, how is it, and where are the pics?? Smile
