I finally got another car so the Celica has to go. its been very reliable for me. it isnt in the greatest condition, but would be a great 1st car or a back up car. it has 190,xxx miles on it. it was my brothers car before mine, so i know of most, if not all of the recent repairs.
Recent repairs
timing belt-about a year ago
brakes all the way around, new pads, resurface rotors, rear shoes, hardware, wheel cylinders, and resurface drums-about a year ago.
tune up including, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, and fuel filter-about 6 months ago
alternator-about 9 months ago
new balancer-about 2 years ago.
few things it needs
2 tires minimum-has a radial pull due to a bad tire. i aligned it, but it still pulls.
rear motor mount-clunk when put into drive and a slight vibration.
leaks oil and power steering fluid-ive just been keeping an eye on it. it doesnt seem to be getting worse.
starter freewheels once in awhile. it doesnt happen very often.
car has no a/c-the compressor locked up about 2 years ago, so my brother put a shorter belt on it.
it has a 2.2 with an auto. not the funnest car to drive, but its great transportation. the plates just expired, so i cant take it to work, otherwise i would fix some of the problems. i will be more than happy to take care of the tires, alignment(if needed) and motor mount once its sold.
kelly blue book values the car @ $1500 in fair condition, needing some repairs. priced dropped to $1000 OBO
