stevie_b Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Surely the discount on insurance isn't more than the price difference between a Jspec TT 6spd and a UK TT 6spd? That depends on how long you keep the car for. The insurance "dividend" of having a UK car is a yearly thing, whereas the higher cost of buying a UK car is a one-off hit.

movistar Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 This guy used to have a gun metal facelift N/a areotop for sale, as its the same wheels outside the same house...looks like he's had a few supra in his time tbh. Price will come down....it always does:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Its value really depends on what you want out of the car, good luck to the guy, I hope he gets what he is asking. Given its rarity, black, UK, six speed stock condition (UK wheels+ stock exhaust), low miles, then for a collector this could be a good investment of a future classic. As the base for modification forget it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveR Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Blimey - price is a bit steep, isn't it? £15k?! And those wheels are hideous... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the base for modification forget it. It's all about the car you want, not what you want to do to it. I agree that you'd choose a J spec if you wanted to mod it, but if you just wanted a reliable Supra that you can get serviced at any garage, this is the one to have.

Matt H Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 At that price? joking aint ya? I bet i could get a very low miles year 2000 plus j-spec TT6 supra for less than that? sorry its not "sought after" car in my eyes, id rather have a j-spec than uk tbh. How much do you think a 2002 would go for stock Jamie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlT67 Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 I think its a lot of money for what it is, if you take away the UK aspect then its worth 9-10K, I cant see 5K more just because its a UK. That price is single money... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That price is single money... I can see the appeal of a UK TT6 with low mileage. It's rare so it's hard to put a price on. If there's a buyer out looking for an untouched (nearly) low mileage UK TT6, then it's worth £15k.. or more depending on how deep his pockets are. At the end of the day, he can sell for whatever he wants. If it sells then fair play, if not then he keeps it or lowers the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen G Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 its a lot of money, i wouldnt pay it but how many black uk manuals would have been made or are still about 20, 30? when most where autos like mine:( i should put a 6 speed in mine and ask 10k for it and i would still be up money counting what i paid for the car and what the conversion would cost! Is there any truth in that j. specs dont get the same amount of weather seal underneath as the uk cars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 How many bits was it in? It looked nice in the pics , seem to remember it had full history and was around 100,000 miles, I think it was storm blue, dealer would have took it in P/Ex.

That's the thing though, those kind of miles put off most buyers, regardless of the myth we call Toyota build quality. A clean, honest black UK TT6 is both rare and desirable. Fair play to the seller IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tee from China Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 How much do you think a 2002 would go for stock? just been looking what's for sale in Japan and most of the 2000,01 and 02's seem to be manly tiptronics at around the £10k mark (at the present x rates)before shipping charges etc and one or two manuals @ £11k + with varying mileages if that helps at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sub 40k cars, the sub 100k cars and everything else. A sub-40k UK TT6 would be worth more than £15k to anyone serious enough about buying the right car.
