Celica GT-4
The GT4 Celica featured four wheel drive and the 3S-GTE engine which produced over 250 bhp. These cars are still highly sought after today as they were relatively rare, and offer very good handling combined with lots of power. GT4s are somewhat heavier than the FWD cars at a little over 1400Kg, but the extra power gives them a 0-60 time of just over 6 seconds. Insurance groups for GT4 cars is 17.

Cams Double overhead cam
Power 251 bhp @ 6000 rpm

Avoid the FE engine like the plauge!!

no vent means its N/A
it will have the 3S-GE engine. Same engine as mine. Very strong and goes quicker than you would think.

Jimbo... the ST185 is a great used car buy...
BUT... unless you get a good 'un its going to cost a tidy amount in maintenance bills.

find out what MR2 it is 3scum.
Try and say away from imports because they are more expensive to insure. well i found it hard to get quotes but you might have better luck.
MR2 turbos were all imports.
