kslb Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I would be pushing for over 9k and if you get some better photos that would help, The photo has the front sitting up high and makes it look terrible good photos at good angles and that would make over 9k. Oh and clean the engine bay at least make it look like it is your pride and joy even if it isn't anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 This is yours i take it? http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/400738.htm Then compare to this with half the miles and a lot less money, sorry to be harsh but there is so many for sale they have to be priced right if you want a sale:) http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/356589.htm Bloody hell, 12k is a lot. I was offered one from a member on here, similar milage with the cleanest engine bay i have seen in my life for 6k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxst Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 Thank you all. I have reduced the price and reworded the advert (on Pistonheads), it now lists at £9795 assuming a drop to £8xxx with negotiation. The pictures have to stay though as the weather is absolutely terrible. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I've given up about worrying about Supra values. I effectively made money on my first MkIV after owning it for three years and putting 40k miles on it and part x'ing it for close to what I paid for it. This one however has dropped like a stone. Its relative however, so any future Supra I buy will be a similarly silly price. At least you have the OMG six speed box rather than the (snigger) Lepertronic.

Ewen Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Oi! I like my Tip! :)So do I. But it lacks that certain premium these days. It was the other way round when I bought mine...although I may have been victim of sales hype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxst Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 Thanks for all your advice. The car is advertised here now as well as Pistonheads. I left my email on Pistonheads and have had one "I will give you a cheque if you'll ship to ... " type messages. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazboy Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 The mileage wouldn't bother me in the slightest, those saying it's worth £6k are deluded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Bloody hell, 12k is a lot. I was offered one from a member on here, similar milage with the cleanest engine bay i have seen in my life for 6k If you were offered a VVTi TT6 for £6k I'll eat my hat. I got more than that for a VVti Tip with a knackered engine. This black one is worth £8500-£9000 all day. I'd buy it myself but I don't need a divorce right now.

Steve I put my 6 Speed TT up on there last month and had 3 emails like that - just delete them without even reading them - they are a total waste of time. I had 2 off a bloke called 'Alfano' asking if id ship it to South Africa! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxst Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 Well, that makes me feel a bit better, thank you. When I advertised on eBay my favourite question was: "If I come and test drive and I leave my sister with you, will I get a good discount?" I replied asking for pictures, but didn't get a reply Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pabs Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Supra's are selling - I know cos I'm in the process of buying one. It's not a cheap one either, but worth the money (I think & hope!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxst Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 Well, my Supra didn't sell unfortunately at a (what I think is) reasonable £8995. If I hear one more Cardeal or Cardata person I will personally track down their call center and 'go postal'. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
