Toyota Celica Hatchback 1985-
  • Economy

    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    These cars are underpriced for what they are, which is great if you're buying - depressing when you're selling. These cars have more quality and performance than cars costing 4 times as much!

    Costs

    5 out of 5 5.0

    I've had mine over 1 year and apart from normal running costs, it has been flawless.

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    This car has lots of grip and good feedback through the wheel, even in the wet! Highly recommend!

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Quick enough to keep up with most hot hatches/sports coupes - no difference to an MR2!

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Completely faultless. It has been fully serviced since day 1 and that's all it has required.

    4 out of 5 4.0

    These have a better image than the common-as-muck MR2 (also a great car!) The rarity value giving bonus points. They hide their age very well!

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    I do over 25,000 miles a year. I am 6' 3" and I am in complete comfort. If only it had leather :-(

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    This has standard alarm/immobiliser. Recommed upgrading to Thatcham 1, especially the GT4 brigade!

    Service

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Local dealer friendly enough but prices, as always, are silly!
