1998 Toyota Celica SR review from UK and Ireland
"Great fun car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
One rubber seal popped out, replaced under warranty.
Nothing else apart from normal wear and tear.
General comments?
Not a real sports car, but a seriously fun car.
Looks (in my opinion) much nicer than the new model, and is actually slightly bigger with more room in the back.
Low driving position, good road feel (especially with the 16" wheels on the SR model).
Accelerates nicely, decent top speed.
SR model comes with various extras such as CD player, spoiler, body kit etc.
I'm only changing mine because we have a baby now! (and I'm sticking with Toyota).
