Dan_Turism0 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Hi guys, sorry for creating loads of threads recently I'm hunting for a supe at the minute came across this one on Autotrader does anybody know the owner? Seems very cheap for the spec and mileage - CLICK ME FOR LINK Also what are the wholes on the front of the bumper about? Thoughts, am I being paranoid or should I do a runner?

Tom Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 (edited) it was 11k a few weeks back, they're are some vid on youtube of it, it's looks like a dog plus it's got a non facelift dash so even though it says a 97 it'll be at the youngest a 1996 (DVLA mess up probably) 1997 was the year it came in to the country I bet so it's a dog and a 1993-96 Edited March 16, 2009 by Tom (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexM Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Doesn't look anything special. Paint on the bodykit doesn't seem to match, horrific wheels, cloudy headlights, poorly written advert.. I'm put off already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Turism0 Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 hmm agreed, but for the cost of getting it up to spec for the spec it already has this is what i'm thinking.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 hmm agreed, but for the cost of getting it up to spec for the spec it already has this is what i'm thinking.... by up to spec you mean the poorly fitted/painted kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_aero Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Mine will be up for sale shortly for a lot less than that - I am surprised you can't find one to your tastes on the classified section on here to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supragaz Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 What a sorry looking P.O.S Think you're much better off buying from an owners club like this as the majority of cars on here are well loved and looked after. Have you tried Jurgen? Gaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve A Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 having read hundreds of these adverts recently i would avoid it, any advert to good to be true has been just that to good to be true. Mine will be up for sale shortly for a lot less than that - I am surprised you can't find one to your tastes on the classified section on here to be honest. how much and when mate /vbb/images/smilies/bbcode_grin.gif /vbb/images/smilies/bbcode_grin.gif /vbb/images/smilies/bbcode_grin.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul_SWZ Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 not sure about the car but i now have your postcode lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_aero Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 £4k, plus or minus a hundred. I have many spares like shocks/acrylic headlights and things I never got around to fitting. Will be up for sale in 2 weeks or so - garage pics don't do my car justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexM Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 You could always stick a 2JZ into the IS200... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DODGYDODDS Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 You could always stick a 2JZ into the IS200... Now that is a nice mod, but still no supe:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 You could always stick a 2JZ into the IS200... that's what I told him at first or at least do a vvti 1JZ converison and you really should do, just take a look at this beast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Turism0 Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 haha I know some of you may know MonsterMat? he's got a 2JZ Is200 running De-Tuned at 600bhp vid of it Thing is whilst i do love my is200 and it is a good looking car, I've always loved the supra's since I was 6 years old and dreamt of owning one now it turns out they are cheap to insure (considering) I can make that dream a reality. I couldn't bring myself to destroy a perfectly good supra TT manual for the sake of this mod + it would cost around 12-15k to do this which I just don't have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesC Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 looks ok, but for 9k I'd want a facelift TT6 I don't know if this one is still for sale but it looked like a bargain http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=170146&highlight=tigerblu That one looks 10x better than the originally posted one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
