  1. Still for sale guys. No big turbo's out there fancy a change?
  2. I'd be interested when I sell the tuscan possibly. Unless we could do some sort of swap with a bit of cash
  3. Nobody interested in two rear alloys? Price drop to £50 ...
  4. Kearney hope you dont mind I've used a bit of what you just said in my ebay advert. You summed it up better then i could
  5. Pete - You have your dials to 200mph and inside the speedo you get a LCD display that in true TVR fashion tells you as little as possible, so the rev gauge that reads 10, 20 etc.
  6. Not bad for four wheels, a engine & steering wheel lol
  7. You had one from new?? Always wanted to know how much the tuscans sold for.
  8. Trouble is mate we only had one service at Nissan and the rest got done by a mate who works for SVA so no stamps. Phoned up Nissan and they couldnt answer straight away just asked for where i bought it, service history etc. Its been a pain in the ass. Also i need it back asap and cant really wait 9 weeks for them to come to a dicsion. My plan was to change the engine then take it up with them after. has yours actually gone wrong then and have you a FNSH?
  9. Some more pictures as promised taking today ... Open to offers. Somebody get me back in a Supra or its of to the dark side
  10. Some actual decent pictures of the car to come hopefully tomorrow evening =] For that all more temptation. Welcome to come view the car if youre local.
  11. Haha. Well ive owned quite a few cars for a 'nipper'. And like yourself i spent ages waiting for a black 6spd supra to turn up, gave up in the end and got a auto, then spent 3k converting it. The only thing that worrys me about Supra's is the massive urge to keep spending money on it! With my M3 and TVR I was never once tempted to spend any money on them because i'd raither save the cash up and put towards a nicer/flashier car next time. But mmm black supra ... Gutted i missed out on that white one that someone was selling but took it off the market
  12. I always spend my time finding out as much info about a car as possible, thats the good thing about forums and the search button on prevous posts lol. Its not writen in stone yet that i'll get another supra im tempted by so many other cars. Just high up there on the list
  13. Based on a friends car and opinon. I wouldnt of mind if he so much as said " My Friend had a bad experance " but not so much " Dont buy one ". I understand forums i've been around them enough but im not out to stitch anybody up. Ive been hoovering on this forum for well over a year. From the time i used to have my supra. As you can see in my ad i did ask to do some research first. I dont think ive been unfair in anything in reply. Ive not come out to start a computer arguement
  14. Im happy to answer any questions to any potential buyers
  15. Of course, a supra that weighs 300kg more, and has turbos to spawl is bound to be "alot" faster then a 400bhp n/a, isnt it ... I was going to ignor this comment but .. So you spend £3/4k getting it up to 400bhp, then that about the handling? 1k on suspension? £700 on tyres? then what about the braking? 2k? So yes i agree mate if you want to spend 6/7k on a supra im sure it will be the same performance. But "alot" faster? hmm. Seeing as ive owned both the TVR and a 400+ Supra. I believe a Supra would match its speed from a rolling start racing out of mcdonalds car park, but on a track? im not so sure. And i love supra's. Again just for num nuts benifit. I own two cars, the Tuscan and a Nissan Navara. Im self employed but work for the same company every time. They are telling me i will have 3 months maybe more, maybe less with no work. My truck blew an engine, very common fault on the D22 engines. So I am now left with a tuscan to use for work, and going to the girlfriends which is a 50 mile round trip and everything else. I need something more practical i can use and not have to worry about the miles as the truck is out of action. Something i can leave anywhere and not worry. Ok? I've used the Tuscan as a weekend car so i cant really comment on if they are a daily car or not. But if you check out on the forums alot of people that do use them daily. But you shouldnt get one because nums mate lost money on one :blink:You get your dogs, as you do with any car. I had more problems with my supra in the first 3 months then i did with my TVR. Prehaps i should head over to the sale section screaming dont buy one. I'm not selling a car which you cant see untill you've handed over the cash, you can spend as much time as your heart desires listening, checking, testing the engine. Im not a scam artist looking to rip someone off. If you have any questions prehaps ask me? I will give honest answers Or we could all just go on numnuts mates opinon on his old TVR. I have a another friend with one who has also had no problems. A well looked after TVR will last. I just personally couldnt live with one every day doing the miles i do. And yes i wouldnt like to own one if one went wrong. Sorry if my post seems a little hot headed. But unhelpful posts dont help anybody. Constructive, yes. Mike - The eletrics are a bit tempermental. Nothing major just sometimes have to press the door opening switch twice or windows wind up slowly. If you have a bit of sense of humour and patients you're be fine. Regards to the engine i think they did build a bullet proof lump. Trouble with TVR's prehaps proved here, is you get ALOT of people with ALOT of different opinons. You also get people who have never owned one commenting. Some say a Tuscan with a rebuilt engine is good thing, others say its not. Some say they are a daily car, some say not. So my experance of TVR ownership may be different to anothers, like nums mate Feel somewhat like this whole topic has got out of hand. But i just wanted to answer some questions and comments from my own experance and others i know off Regards
  16. Hello I'm looking at swapping my tuscan for something, quite tempted back into Supra ownership. Manuals prefered, and good power. I like some body kits but nothing OTT (Well you can try) Here is a link to my Tuscan on pistonheads. Thanks http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1068365.htm Regards
