Lovely looking car. I’m not in the market for one at the moment but if was then this is just up my street Black, top secret with red interior and facelift lights

Just watched the YouTube link provided and can’t wait to get home to watch the whole episode. Sitting on a train to London it was a very funny feeling to see who many cares I recognise flying past Paddy in a lovely UK spec. Great work guys. Makes me wish I’d not sold mine. Each one of the 3 of them!

24 hour care usually means 24 hour medical care. The money is to pay for nurses, medical machinery etc. There is a defined math equation around life expectancy, multiplicands and the discount rate. There is usually a general damages award (often a lump sum) for the actual one off injury and then special damages which takes account of future care needs, loss or earnings etc. I suppose the thing I'm trying to say is that the figures might look huge but in reality they are calculated based on what the person 'needs' (not would like) and various experts on both sides of the table usually have to reach an agreement.

I imagine that the vast majority of the money is held by the Court of Protection and the parents won't have access to it. To be clear, the 'award' isn't an award/windfall. The child won't have it to spend. Its a sum awarded to cover the child's future care needs. The quantum is calculated by numerous independant care specialists who in turn will be challenged by the NHS' own experts. I don't know the background of the case but at £37m I can only assume that the needs of the poor child must be extreme indeed. 24 hour care; probably 2 carers, special adaptations to house, special care equipment etc. One does wonder whether I would want to live with such problems.

Absolutely gorgeous car. Good luck with the sale. I used to have the same alloys with blue bolts in my first supra. They suit your car much better.

I have a little bit of experience in this area. I’m struggling to see how a home contents policy would be designed to cover theft of a washing machine outside of a home. I suppose the definition of what the property is might actually pull it back into cover even though it’s on your drive. I note the £200 excess but you need to check if it’s an old for new policy. If so, you may well find they’d have paid you the £400 (price of a new one). If a customer told me their broken washing machine was stolen; can I get a new one, I’d probably suggesting my fraud guys look into it though! In terms of damage to the drive, I’m interested to know why they wouldn’t cover it. If the drive is part of your property and your property was damaged during a theft then (whilst the circumstances are odd) it might be covered. The claims handler will be a junior guy. I’d personally ring up again and speak to a supervisor. I’d also ask them to put any declinature in writing and once I have it I’d write a short letter making a formal complaint which senior people have to review. If they uphold the decision then I’d then send it straight to the FOS to ask them to review. With the sums being so low you may well find they pay something to make it go away. The comments around algorithms is based on the assumption that all insurance companies work the same way. They might not. Mine certainly doesn’t automatically increase be premium. Richard

Advert updated to show availability. Would like these items gone so will consider sensible offers.

Someone wanted the front pads but I wouldn't split. If he wants the fronts I'll see you the back.

So is every other currency including regulated onces. Sadly it is what makes the world go round.

I have an m140 and they are awful at the moment. Even at 30mph I had traction control kicking in. My thoughts to the driver and passenger of the supra

I was excited to get it through the post today

Ha

Deposit taken for the car and plate Hopefully going to a really nice bloke who is joining the club.

Ideally I would like to sell it witht he car to avoid messing around. I would consider selling it on its own though if the price was right.

Thanks How it is that every time I sell a Supra people who own Supras suddenly start living close to me? When I drive mine around I never see any others!!

Thanks for the kind words. As you rightly say, I have really enjoyed keeping her. I'm in no rush to sell so if no one approaches me about her then I might be able to convince the wife to let me keep her! We shall see. Thank you. I think so too!

Make: Toyota Supra MK4 Engine: 3.0 N/A Transmission: Automatic Year: 1994 Mileage: 140km approx. (will check and update in due course) MOT: March 2018. Passed with zero advisories last time. After 1.5 years of ownership I have decided to put my Supra up for sale. I purchased the car from Keron, the well-known trader on here, in July 2016. This has been the third Supra I have owned since I have fallen in love with these cars. I am certain that this one will not be my last. This one has probably been my favourite simply because it has the looks, is dependable with its N/A lump and because it is so easy to drive. Over the last year my role at work has changed and with my son coming along I have not had much personal free time. Consequently the Supra has not been driven as much as I envisaged that it would (a few thousand miles max) with me only managing to make 1 show this year (Japfest). Whilst having a beautiful car in the garage, driving to work in my Ford KA isn’t doing much for my ego and I can’t bear to drive it for another winter. I have therefore gone all out and placed an order for a new BMW M140i which arrives in the next two weeks. As a consequence I have decided to sell the Supra to make some space in the garage. At the time of purchase Keron gave the car a good going over and service for me (filters, plugs etc). During my ownership the car has wanted for nothing. It’s been serviced regularly and has recently had new brake pads (Bembro) and discs all round. When she hasn’t been used she has been stored under a cover and with a trickle charger on. Since my purchasing the car its had fitted: Facelift rear lights Facelift front indicators Facelift side indicators Heckler rear foglight PCB (when you turn the foglight button on, one of the rear brake lights becomes a fog light – no need for an ugly foglight in the bumper) Heckler red led dash light conversion New 19 inch XXR 531 alloy wheels with new brand new tyres New leather handbrake gaiter. I originally purchased the particular Supra because I wanted to tinker with it over the winter. By tinker I mean tidy it up a little bit and learn from the process. My main aim was to try keep it looking stock but also smart. I have: Had the usual rust around the boot lid removed and the boot lid professionally resprayed. New window seal also added at the same time. Has some surface rust removed from the bonnet and had it professionally resprayed. Dyed the carpet black Replaced a large number of rusted bolts and nuts in the engine bay with brand new bolts and nuts from Toyota. In total with the hoses (below) these bits cost me almost £250 (receipt to prove). Replaced some old and worn hoses (including the radiator hoses) and clamps Replaced the o ring deal where the distributor fits into the engine and fixed an oil leak Purchased and installed a missing polystyrene part for the boot Refitted an original airbox rather than the ugly induction kit that came with the car. Prior to Japfest I also paid for the car to be fully detailed on the outside (that’s where the pictures are from). This cost a small fortune but included putting chemicals on the wheels and the bodywork. I believe it was Gtechniq crystal serum but I can’t find the email from the detailer confirming. The car didn’t come with much paperwork from Keron but I have kept all my records since I have purchased it. I have receipts to prove what I have done. There are a few things I would change I were to keep the car. None of these need to be done by the owner but I want to be honest. These are: The Jesus handle on the passenger side is loose / broken. The windscreen wiper arms could do with a respray (or you can buy brand news ones from Whifbitz for about £70 each – which is what I would do) There are a couple of minor stone chips on the car which could do with touching up. The paint on the roof has faded a bit. I’d either ask my detailer to polish it out (which he says he can do) or I’d perhaps get it blown over by the person who did the boot lid (I was quoted £250). The steering wheel is worn. Its never bothered me but if I was keeping it longer I might be tempted to send it off to be restitched. There will be some of you who will be put off by the car being an auto rather than a manual. If you have never driven an auto Supra I suggest that you do. I’ve driven both and I absolutely love the autobox. The next Supra I buy will be an auto too. I do not have photographs of the underneath of the car and have no way of getting this done. My local garage who have done all the work however claim it is amazingly solid underneath. They have no reason to lie to me (the opposite in fact as they know it will get them more work). I took the opportunity to buy a supra related private plate when it popped up for sale. It can stay with the car although I will reduce the cars price if you don’t want the plate (I’ll keep it for my next one!). Overall this is a truly lovely car that has hardly been driven. It has however been pampered by someone who really loves it. You are welcome to come view the car but you are only getting in it with proof of valid insurance to drive it (you’ll need this to drive home with it in any event) and proof of a valid driving licence. I am wanting £7500 for the car with the plate. I would sell it for £7100 without the plate. Please PM me if you are interested. Based in Bradford/Leeds areas (BD17) Forgive me for the size of the photos... I can't WORK OUT HOW TO RESIZE! https://vgy.me/Sov3pT.jpg https://vgy.me/CvuIGE.jpg https://vgy.me/zGL7AL.jpg https://vgy.me/jP652i.jpg https://vgy.me/dFBbVx.jpg https://vgy.me/uU2cJP.jpg https://vgy.me/5Xryj3.jpg https://vgy.me/XPeipI.jpg https://vgy.me/4NQb4T.jpg https://vgy.me/an3J5y.jpg
