said goodbye to much beloved 106 gti last week 
yesterday saw a trip down to Kent to go and have a second look at the little Starlet Glanza. i ended up taking it home 
It doesnt feel as quick as the gti or corner as well but i just seem to love it really. the mods include:
Laserline Cat 1 alarm with 2 fobs and certificate for insurance
Original Toyota mats
Factory front strut brace
Factory rear strut brace
Factory wind deflectors
Factory option rear mid (duck) spoiler
Factory option front bumper extension (only primed at this time)
Apexi full aftermarket stainless steel exhaust
HKS induction kit
HKS dump valve
HKS actuator
HKS oil cap
HKS radiator cap
Blitz turbo timer
Blitz boost gauge
TEIN lowering springs
Rota grid alloys (in white) with Toyo tires (only about 4 months old)
Momo steering wheel
TRD horn button
Momo gear knob and gaiter
Momo handbrake and gaiter
Sparco road pedals
TRD tax disc holder
cdplayer & speakers
very happy anyway, put her on high boost last night, seems because it running higher boost than usal the ecu doesnt like it so it flaggin up the EML and even had a fuel cut so have to sort out some management/remap for her.
Heres some pics as she stands

Well please keep it that way and hopefully in a few weeks time u will realise youve made big mistake,and go back to the GTI's 
Have to admit,it does look nice.White is clearly the best colour for them,gives them the Jap import look.

Looks nice 
Glad you got that shape one rather then the brick like one 
Only thing I dont like is the seats. Change those and lower it and it will look 
Drives supercharged Tec with torque

yeah im not a fan of the ET82/85 (brick shape) had to be a EP91 Glanza for me.
I like the seats tbh, i think there a bit like Marmit tbh 
ive got recipets for £125 for the springs and £150 fitting ill lower it, but not top of my prioritys atm, going to invest in an anti lift kit first and a few other minor adjuestements on boost and such
