Totally original and genuine car in great condition
Lively 1800cc performance and 6-speed gearbox
Full-service history
The Background
Launched to the motoring public in late 1999, the seventh generation of the popular and proven Toyota Celica, with its clean and distinctive lines coupled with its rev hungry 1800cc engine, lightweight and razor-sharp handling chassis, delivered a very capable, and well-engineered, driver’s car.
Toyota were well known for their reliability and durability, and they offered great value for money and came with a long list of standard equipment, including airbags, ABS, electric windows and mirrors, a decent stereo and a leather-covered steering wheel. This car also has the optional extra of air conditioning and climate control fitted.
This superb one owner example can fairly be described as totally original throughout. Finished in the perfect Celica colour 3P0 Super Red. With its retro sports coupe body lines it would undoubtedly turns heads and attract attention wherever it goes.
This car’s one and only owner took delivery in 2003 and has kept it garaged and maintained and serviced by the supplying Toyota Dealership and, in later years, by a local independent specialist.
He’s clearly looked after the car throughout his ownership as its current overall condition shows very clearly. He kept it all original, accepting small signs of age and use as well-earned patina collected during his time with the car.
It received its last full service in 2020, since which time it has done very few miles.
A new 12 month MOT Certificate will be supplied with the car.
The current V5 Registration document is present with just 1 private registered owner from first registration in January 2003. A full file of receipts for servicing and maintenance is present which includes a fully stamped up service book with Toyota Dealers and Specialists.
The car comes with 2 keys, toolkit, and all the original Owner’s set of handbooks and manuals.
The stylish, sporty interior of the Toyota Celica looks in good overall condition with only a few areas needing some light attention.
Front and rear fabric seats feature black central sections with vibrant red side trims all of which show little sign of use, except for a small area on the piping on the driver’s seat which looks like it has received wear from the seat belt over the years.
All the switchgear and instruments work as they should, and all electrics function correctly.
The original Super Red paintwork is in very good overall condition. There are some small stone chips at the front of the car and a few scratches and small dents here and there that the car has acquired through normal use.
The driver’s door mirror has picked up some light damage as shown in the photos.
All the lights are clear with rubber seals showing no signs of any fading or cracking and the original alloy wheels have never been refurbished and now show some light corrosion and are carrying some light kerbing damage. The wheels would certainly benefit from a good refurbishment in time and are all shod with recent new tires.
The vendor explained the car was to be presented for sale exactly as it is. Therefore the original number plates fitted from new by the Supplying Dealer Jemca Toyota were to remain on the car and also the last issued tax disc remain in the screen. He also mentioned that the standard factory alloy wheels have started to show minor cosmetic imperfections but would leave a new owner to decide on the decision of possible refinishing.
The carpeted boot area is clean and dry and features the spare wheel, jack and tools. Under the bonnet is in a similar good condition and appearance showing no signs of any coolant or oil leaks.
Toyota’s are well known for their quality of engineering, durability and reliability. And mechanically this car has been very well cared for throughout its life, which is reflected in the way this car currently looks and drives.
The car is reported to start on the first turn of the key and drive superbly with no obvious or known issues to be advised of.
New full 12 month MOT with no advisory notes issued on the certificate. One new tyre and a coil spring was replaced prior to taking the vehicle to the testing station. EXPIRY DATE 26/01/23.
To find an unmolested standard and original example of this Toyota Celica model is rare these days, the model being very popular with customisers and tuners to play around with.
It’s a very attractive and stylish small coupe that handles well and delivers plenty of performance when required and certainly deserves its place amongst modern day motoring classics.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.

Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
