Guest MarkPayne Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 For Sale £7950 EMAIL: [email protected] 1998 VVTI Tiptronic Twin Turbo £7950 74K Miles Gun Metal Grey Full Leather MOT till Feb 2010 Very Tidy This car is just a piece of genius. Best car I have ever owned. Now its time for a change (or mistake depending!): Upgrades: Car is pretty much stock with the following exceptions/enhancements. 18” Antera Alloys (I have just put new rear tyres on) HKS Super Dragger exhaust (just right for me, not too loud) HKS Induction kit Pioneer BlueTooth head unit with phone kit and IPOD interface Bazooka bass tube nicely and discreetly fitted in boot. Clifford CAT 1 Alarm/Immobiliser with two fobs Service and History I bought the car off the Forum well over a year ago here: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=142612&highlight=1998 I paid £9K for her then including twisting Ben’s arm for the Pioneer unit that he did not want to include (sorry Ben!). Since then I have covered about 6000 trouble free miles. The Supra has been a weekend and summer drive for me. I have the full service history since entry into the UK in 2002. The Cambelt was done at 100Km whilst still with Ben. I have the receipts. I have the mileage certificate at the point that the clock was converted to MPH. During its stay with me I have had no problems with her what so ever. The only work done has been service items as follows: All Pads (front and rear) changed New rear tyres for MOT Oil and filter at 66K Miles (I like to do it every 5K) Any faults or considerations worth mentioning? • The wheels are not perfect, I have included a pic of this. It’s not noticeable unless you are looking closely. • The plastic wind deflector trim over the passenger side door is cracked; see pic (thanks babe!). You have to buy them as a pair and I never got around to it: £75ish I think. • There are two small under paint corrosion bubbles slowly forming at the front of the bonnet (pics). Will eventually need refinishing. • The rev counter does this very very quiet tick tick thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 1998 VVTI Tiptronic Twin Turbo £8250 74K Miles Gun Metal Grey Full Leather MOT till Feb 2010 Very Tidy Still a nice car. I think it's Quick Silver rather than Gun Metal. There are two small under paint corrosion bubbles slowly forming at the front of the bonnet (pics).That's odd, seeing as the bonnet is alloy. You sure it's corrosion or could it just be the paint has blistered a little? ---------- Edit to add: Ah, the attachments are there now. Yeah that looks like rust. How strange.

Guest MarkPayne Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Thanks Jake.... Sorry I saw the blistering and just assumed. I did not know the bonnet was ally! Thanks for the info. M Still a nice car. I think it's Quick Silver rather than Gun Metal. That's odd, seeing as the bonnet is alloy. You sure it's corrosion or could it just be the paint has blistered a little? ---------- Edit to add: Ah, the attachments are there now. Yeah that looks like rust. How strange.

Guest MarkPayne Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Bump I'm serious. I will let it go for £6900. Seen another car I would like and I am feeding the price to change. I will let it rest here for a few days and then it goes to the world. Move now or loose it. Cheers Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since my price drop to £6900 I have had two separate offers of £6k dead. I just can't accept that surely!? Anyway I have said "no". But I appreciate the offers.

Anyway I have said "no". But I appreciate the offers. Cheers Mark Your car is worth more than 6k mate... Its in mint condition not much damage or faults. I would hold on a little unless you really need to shift it. I just need to sell mine off for 5k minimum and I can pay you very close to your asking price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
