Toyota Sera // A 1990's vision of the future
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
A look at the 1990-1995 Toyota Sera. A quirky and stylish Japanese domestic market only sports car/coupe with butterfly doors. A few have been imported to the UK and Europe. 31 years later, how does it drive on the roads of the UK?
The car that inspired a certain feature on Gordon Murray's McLaren F1.
Introduced in 1990, the Toyota Sera EXY10 was a forward thinking design from Toyota. This particular car is a 1990 phase 1, with an automatic gearbox.
Covers the Sera sold in 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994 and 1995.
Contact details for sale to come soon, when car is ready. Watch this space.

I was pleasantly surprised to see it was an auto. Unless it's on a performance car I'm so not bothered about manuals anymore 😄 I think it will!
I've been driving the Hyundai Coupe for about 4 months now and I'm still putting the wipers on every time I go to indicate

But but but, it's better because you can change gear and indicate at the same time.... even if you end up with no rubber left on the wipers and a windscreen entirely made of scratches 😂

Such a funny car. Always assumed they were gullwing doors but it’s so obvious they’re not now! Very cool.

Haha yes, the intricacies of car door names. Thanks for watching :)
Awesome and interesting video my dude. Although I'm managing to get anxiety from how much you turn the wheel vs how little the car moves

Thanks my man. Yes, like being the captain of a ship 😂.
incase you never found out, the katakana (or japanese characters) near the automatic transmission handle say 'shifuto rokku shisutemu', basically 'shift lock system'

Ah nice, yeah I did eventually figure out what it was.... it totally isn't pronounced like that though surely 😂
I quite like the look of the taillights. It's like what Nissan was going for with the new Z.

No, not yet! I think the owner is struggling to let go of it as it's basically a family heirloom now :)
Is it for sale?

I'm not sure what the owner is doing with it, I think he might be struggling to let go, it's just too weird and cool. I'll reply on here if I do hear anything from him! 😂

Haha, I am aware of the song (I think thanks to the Simpsons!), but it absolutely didn't click with me the link between that song and the meaning of the cars name 😂 Thanks Fred! Perhaps they should have called it the Que Sera. Or that could have been a special edition!
Har, the paint needs some work...

Thanks David! Sounds very interesting. They're a very unusual car so they don't get lots of views on KZread, but perhaps one day I will do another video on a Sera. Cheers for watching!
