SUPRALOOPY Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 I have collected alot of stuff for my NA over the last year, but I can't see me doing it. I have seen some things going for good money lately and its got me thinking, I can't imagine ripping the car to bits and then dragging it onto the back of a scrap truck but its unfinished and worth more in bits, I could also do with some money insted of car I have no time to do sitting on the drive. I also think if I get rid of the supra I'll move onto other stuff and vanish. What do you reckon? Break it or do it?? Dave:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 If you need the money then sell or break to the highest bidder, if you dont then fix her up and enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy W Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Just get it done. What else are you gonna do? Fritter all the money away on half bottles of White & Mackay? You talked me into keeping mine, only right I do the same!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 What needs doing Dave? It looked pretty much complete when I was round last. Wouldn't it be best financially to get get it complete, MOT, Tax it and sell? Maybe get a set of stock wheels and sell your nice ones seperately, and do the same for any other nice bits (UK Brakes?), they add little to the cars value, but are worth quite some money sold on their own. If it's a financial burden then it makes sense to get as much cash back from it as possible. That doesn't mean it needs a repaint or anything, just a tidy up.

Pig Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Put it back together and then sell. When your ready to make one lovely like your last then they will have dropped in value more so you wont lose out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pistonbroke Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Would it really make that much difference to you financially to break it?. Sure they are worth more in bits than they are built, but if you want back in the game one day, your efforts breaking this one will be negated. I'd just sorn it, store it somewhere secure, let the insurance run out and just do it slow time. It won't be costing you a dime while it's just sat there, and you can get stuff done on it as and when you want. It certainly makes sense for you business wise to have a flagship supra to show your efforts. To leave the supra scene after the 100% trader renewal you just got seems madness. Stick with it Dave. You'll appreciate it when you cruise down the high street in her watching all the rubber necking pedestrians checking it out. I know I do everytime I go out in mine.

Scooter Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 ......just in case you do decided to get as much cash as possible I could be interested in a part stripped very basic car (manual?) ie you sell all the interesting/valuable bits but leave it basically a useable but tatty car. (eg I have and so wouldn't need an exhaust/steering wheel/brakes/Wheels) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
