Yup, definitely the GPvR. I had a GPX but traded it for a GPvR.

I also gave my GPvR folding mirrors. It isn't hard to do.

Do you guys know the GPvR I am looking at has air bags, alarm and immbobilisor?

Plus what year did they stop using the glue in the roof?

The VR looks like the back speakers have been removed or never had them put in, as you can see the sun light shining into the boot via the speaker holes.
But it looks to be in good condition.
As for airbags it would have driver side but looks like none on the passenger side.

A few very early facelift models still have it, so early 1997.

Wouldn't that be an issue for water leakage and rust?

are the speaker holes on the inside of the car and the light is passing through the back window into the boot?

Also has anyone been able to add a anchor point for a car seat and had any problems?

Edit: Thats a child car seat for my 3 year old whom is going to be cruising with me hehe :)

Speaker holes are inside the car mate, on the parcel shelf which sits above the rear seat.

Hey Guys,

The GPvR rear speakers are there (sorry not my best photography :oops: ) as are the two baby bolt/anchor points as I have had my 2 and 4 year old in the back on numerous occasions, We have 5 kids and they all love this car.
Yes sorry it does have alarm/immobiliser and keyless entry,the mirrors can be manually folded if required.
Air conditioning works great.

If it has rear speakers, I'm going to guess the speakers have degraded and cracked. Same thing happened to my old ones.

My front left was like that. Other 3 are still in working condition. We should get a collection of factory speakers going, connect them all up, and run them till they blow. Bonfire idea? haha
