    Great review! 205 is awesome but I own a 185RC so I’m bias towards that. After 18 years of ownership I still look back at her after parking up 😁

    I was recommend this video via JayEmm’s channel and it’s so relevant to me it’s unreal! I literally went to look at a 90s Celica yesterday and took my 5 year old son with me to see if I could get him in the back 😂 I was so surprised by how much space there actually is in there. I didn’t bring my 2 year old daughter’s car seat with me but it would have definitely fit as your video clearly demonstrates. Total Tardis of a car!

    Have owned an ST205 for over 20 years. They have been, for a very long time, totally overlooked by the JDM scene. Car scene in general TBH. Always in the shadow of the supra. Its amazing how many people are still surprised when I inform them that the "Four" in the name is in fact 4WD. Very little is known about these cars on the whole. They have flaws, In abundance. But they also have one of the most intoxicating characters of any car I have ever driven. I have owned mine long enough to have seen them go from RARE to COMMON and back to RARE again and It's nice being a member what is becoming an even more exclusive club as time goes on. especially in the last 24 months as it seems these cars are being noticed and dare I say, even sought after. When I used to get asked "Should I buy one?" I'd typically say no .BUT, If you are willing to give it the dedication and love these cars require and deserve. Then you will without a doubt fall totally in love with it. Some days hate it. Some days wonder if you should get rid of it. But when all is good. and you get to your favourite piece of road on a summer evening. you remember why its part of your life.

My second car at 18 years old was a mk2 mr2 2.0 n/a and i felt like the coolest lad in the city, at least until i span out at a roundabout in the rain trying to impress my girlfriend, ignited a love of rear wheel drive though and i really wish i had kept it.

    Until just now, I'd forgotten that I rode in the back of one of these, nonturbo fwd, 32 years ago back in college. The owner would smoothly let out the clutch, floor it, and shift- at 2,000 revs! In every gear! I told her it would be MUCH quicker if she'd actually let it rev up anywhere close to the 6 grand redline.

I haven't tried to put the baby in the back seat yet as I have other family cars I've been using but to know that it could if I needed to is great!

Last year before my son was born we picked up a 2011 Mini Countryman S ALL4 and that little thing rips in the snow and is so fun! Having American, JDM, and a Euro makes it easy to understand how ALL cars can be special in their own ways and should be appreciated no matter what your preferences are! I always get flack for having so many cars but I genuinely appreciate every one of them in their own way from my 1st car (00 CRV 5spd which I still have 235k miles goin strong) to my newest (the Celica) I make sure to take care of and drive them all!

    I have a 1991 5th gen Celica gti which I have created my own JVC livery for along with Saga Mega drive stickers too. Always turns heads and little school boys go made when I flip the head lights. 😂. I also have a K12 Nissan Micra. 204. It was my daughters learning car. One day something clicked in my brain. I said wait a minute this is a 1.4 twin cam 16v engine. That's 80s GTI spec! and it can't breath properly. The air intake was in a terrible place. So I cut the end off and stuck an old hover hose into the front grill to the air box. Ram Air. My god. I had created a GTI for nothing. It now goes like stink. I loved it so much I bought it off my daughter. I had to put wider tyres on it as it now spins the wheels in the wet. It now looks like an 80s GTI and goes like one. Makes me laugh out load when I pull away from people at traffic lights and at the next lights you can see them looking at the Micra thinking, what kind of Micra is that! It pissed off a new Golf Gti driver so much on the twisties the other day he floored his triple bhp car on the straight to put my Micra in its place 😂
