ReNe0 Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Hello MKIV Im about to buy my first supra, and have looked at this one: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/372550.htm Anybody who knows something about the car? ReNe0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I don't know the car but a couple of things don't sound right to me: He says it is a fresh import and yet it was taxed in August 07 - so hardly fresh off the boat. The ad says it has "a perfectly sound engine which has been untouched apart from a blow off valve and air filter" - but he fails to mention the boost controller. I dont know why but I have a bad feeling about this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I dont know why but I have a bad feeling about this one. me too................. I like the silver one recently posted in the for sale section.............love or hate rims but looks like its run at stock boost all its life and looks very clean without being over prepped.........

hoff Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Looks clean from the outside but I'd want to see engine pics for sure. Welcome to the club though:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Isn't that Maz's (mk47 ) car ? yep looks like it : http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=134079&highlight=new+car That thread has confused me. Was he the owner then? If so, where did the pics Nicholas posted come from? Why was he stripping it? Is there a thread to introduce the car when / if he imported it?

ReNe0 Posted April 21, 2008 Author Share Posted April 21, 2008 Thanks for the comments guys. I think i stay off this one. me too.................

Scooter Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Link, Scooter ? This one not saying its a 'great' deal..........but its the sort of supra i'd go for, stock'ish, bonus of the larger brakes and kit (if thats your thing) history known as much as can be expected..........those 'Trust' stickers on the airbox are Jap servicing stickers unless i'm mistaken..........all plus points IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazboy Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 What exactly are you looking for? If you tell us what you really want I'm sure we could find a car for sale, or the thread may tempt someone into selling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReNe0 Posted April 24, 2008 Author Share Posted April 24, 2008 Specific a Supra TT Rz 6 Speed. Max 80.000 miles on the clock. Black or grey, but will consider other colors. Std bpu or bpu+ Another body kit would be great, but not recommended. Price around 10.000£ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest poodle Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 i pass keighley trade centre on my way to work, the guy i think actually ownes 3 garages in that area the "sports and performance" which is actually in cross hills just outside of keighley the 4x4 garage just as you enter keighley and a "standard" car garage not far from that which sells standard uk cars of course most of his imports look like they have been driven from japan let alone imported.ive been there many times for a look about but not heard one good thing from anyone that has purchased from there, this spanning all way back at least 3 years to when i was driving fto's of course consiquently because im so close and pass it every day ( i work in keighley ) i can always have a peek at it for you, but past experience even though i have never purchased there myself says "no" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guigsy Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I dont think a single person on this forum would buy anything from Keighley trade centre. STAY FAR FAR AWAY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
