Could always see if one of our Australian members will forward it on for you ?

Welcome back to the club. Looks a very tidy example do you have any plans ?

Your friend is correct there was 1 in 1A1 in 6 speed, if I owned that car the first thing I would be doing is changing it back to 1A1. It’s a pity that it was resprayed as if it had been left untouched it would have been worth some serious money to a collector.

I would love to see the VIN plate on one of these 1A1 cars to see what the VIN says, are you speaking to the owner or through a thrid party ?

Ah I know which car you are speaking of as it befell one of the greatest travesties known to a factory UK supra. It was indeed a 1A1 6 speed UK car the rarest of the rare a genuine unicorn one of a kind but in tragic turn of events was resprayed factory red. It belongs to a member on here nick69 http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?312985-Recognise-this-plate-82TUR&highlight=nick69 I had been doing some digging on it as I couldn't find evidence of a respray but after finding the above thread and matching the vin to a 1A1 I can confirm this is the 4th and final 1A1 UK car to be sold here in the UK and the only one to have a manual box.

If you pm me the chassis number I can let you know if it is indeed a genuine 1A1.

That I do not know but I have never heard of any cracking / bending etc of stock wheels so not sure why they would add bracing unless they made them out of cheaper material ?

I can confirm that there were 3 special order 1A1 supras all 1993 and all Autos. Two are exported but one is still here. There was also I believe a special order supra in green too again a 1993 Auto, everything I find on this car suggests it hasnt been resprayed and it is still in the UK somewhere !

There was no difference between UK and JSpec wheels there was however a difference between pre facelift and facelift wheels. There was additional bracing on the back on the spokes on the facelift wheels

When I was with Sky they let me mirror my no claims bonus on both cars. My argument was I can only drive one at once so why can't I use it on both ?

Are you tanking it ? Is there a pressure valve to avoid excess pressure building ?

The hard lines are discontinued now

Keep to the facts please people and keep it civil.

Just for information my agreed value is £28,000. The purpose of that figure is to get me back into another car of the same. Your car is identical to my own including mileage with the only difference being mine is a year younger. Depending obviously on current condition and parts replaced if yours is in good fettle then it’s probably worth the same if not north of that figure.

Big num does

Hi and welcome back. Sounds like a roller coaster ride you’ve had ! We have a register tracking all the UK spec Supras so if you have any details of your new one and your old one you can pm me and I can add them. Link to register below in my signature.

Auto or manual ?

Once you’ve finished playing musical supra’s let me know and I’ll update the register

What do you recommend ?

Yes it did but someone stole the gearstick out of this one Lovely car betting this goes abroad ! Your selling 4 months too early aren't you ?

I thought about getting rid of mine but it wasn't worth it so it's in the garage.

80000 miles

This is great news although don’t expect any parts for gearboxes !
