Value of my UK manual, unmodified car

Hello folks, I'm a new member so please be kind.

Without taking the Michael, what does the collective think my car is worth? It's a genuine UK 6-sp manual, entirely unmodified, registered in 94 with rare dark blue metallic paint. I've owned it for the last seven years. And the bad news is it's done 115k.

I love it to bits and don't really want to sell, but for the right price, who knows?

Any one got any realistic ideas of what it might be worth?

I'd say near £10k at the right time, which isn't now with the state of the second hand car market. Very rare car you have there, as Toyota only made approx 150 UK spec manuals. I doubt there's even 100 left now.

Being unmodified should be better for its value, especially with FSH. Standard Supras are the vast minority these days.

If its immaculate then you'd be doing well to get £7995, and if its better then £8500 ...

 

But not until Summer next year (my guess as to when prices will start to rise by 10-15% :) )

 

 

thats more the figure, the thing is iv seen vvti go for around 7k and they are mint with mileage of 40-50k but they are j-pec auto

Better than immaculate?

 

We must be using different dictionaries...

This is true, but the UK 6 Speed holds about £1k premium over the Jap Spec due to the various differences ... I've had both and don't see the value myself but the market speaks with £s... :D

people think uk spec is faster, plus the insurance is way cheaper which is stupid because if the uk spec is faster than the j-spec than surely the insurance should be higher for the uk, its another way for the insurance companies to make more money. Anyways a supra is a supra they all have the same parts all over so regardless of j-spec or uk it would not bother me

Cheers for the responses, reckon I'll wait until the economy recovers sometime during the next century. Until then i shall continue to enjoy my car for what it is, and hope it doesn't expire in the meantime.:):)
