Seller's Notes

This Toyota Celica is a highly original modern classic coupe, with only one registered owner from new. Its engine is the 67kW 2.0-litre 21R-C inline-four, driving the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. The car has relatively low mileage, with most of that covered in country Victoria. It retains the original factory specification of white paintwork over an interior trimmed in grey cloth and blue vinyl. Dealer-fitted options when new included 14-inch mag alloy wheels, headlight covers, and a front nudge bar. Factory equipment includes air conditioning, heated rear screen, and the Toyota-branded radio cassette stereo system. The transmission also features an overdrive function. Accompanying the car is the original owner’s manual and warranty and service record, a Haynes repair manual, Celica brochure, and the purchase document from 1983. Also present is the rear louvre panel, near-new Car Bra and two original keys. The toolkit, spare wheel, and jack are also included, and have never been used. There is no known prior bodywork damage, other than some very small dents in line with the age. Its white paintwork is in good order, with some minor stone chips and a few small scuff marks as shown in the photo gallery. The black plastic exterior trims have minor marks and scuffs, but overall it is a presentable modern classic. One headlight cover is cracked, though the headlight itself is not damaged. Inside, the dashboard has a couple of cracks, and there is some slight discolouration to the grey cloth seat upholstery. In general it presents well though, and like the exterior is highly original. The air conditioning needs to be re-gassed, and the electric aerial needs some attention. There are no other known electrical or mechanical faults or foibles. The seller states that the car starts on the button, and that the brakes, steering and suspension work as they should. All the fluids are up to level and clean, and the engine revs freely and pulls well. This Toyota Celica 2.0 XT Liftback is something of a ‘time warp’ car, which has been in long-term single ownership, and which is in good overall condition. Evidently well maintained, it has also been preserved so that it remains highly original. For someone looking for a characterful throwback to the 1980s, this Celica could be a great daily driver or weekend classic.
