nasoup Posted July 23, 2010 Author Share Posted July 23, 2010 Is the mileage clocked back to pre-conversion stage? If it was originally stacking KM, it might be a lot less than indicated on the ODO. I have no documents in regards to when the ODO was converted. Is there any other way of finding out whether the ODO is correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nasoup Posted July 23, 2010 Author Share Posted July 23, 2010 I would have thought in the condition its in and if it was original j-spec condition it would fetch about £16-1700 but with the uk headliights, alarm ect it would reach £2000 easy. Iv seen a couple of auto N/A's go for near £2400 but never seen a manual for anywhere near that cheap so mines got to be worth somewhere near the £2000 range even in the condition its in, surely? I would love to keep this car but currently I have no other car to drive and the supra insurance is hardly any cheaper to insure than last year add petrol prices to that and its a struggle. I'm young and i'm lucky that I got to drive her everyday for a year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom S Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 IMHO £1500 is too cheap. My old one sold for £1750 recently, the buyer did a little bit of work and then sold it for £3500. I know your money is tight but fix some of the issues and its £2k easy. as Homer says Black and Manual..... just park her up for a few weeks and get some help via trust worthy members.

Kirk Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Ok i gotta ask, even thought this is totaly off topic, howcome your odo displays miles instead of km's like mine even though its converted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Ok i gotta ask, even thought this is totaly off topic, howcome your odo displays miles instead of km's like mine even though its converted? The odo mph/km isn't down to the convertor, it simply counts the ticks. The bit that displays km/mph is down to a resistor setup on the odo board itself I seem to recall.

herbiemercman Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 (edited) hi nasoup, i have a 1995 supra which i bought new in southern ireland, £30,750. it has covered 38,000 miles and is immaculate. it is valued at £9,000 by adrian flux insurance. if your car runs well, is manuel, no oil leaks, as good as the photo, then you must be asking £3,500, the repairs you require are minor, but you should do them. the supras are special cars, way ahead of their time, well engineered, you can pay £3,000 for a snot box car. my brother has just spent £3,000 renovating his 94 TT. beleive me these cars are going up in value if they are good examples, look at the one on this site for sale at £17,950, a superb car for the price of a ford est car. i have just read an advert on this site for a used TT supra engine at £1,500. this gives you some perspective. good luck, don't panick. herbiemercman. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=114309&stc=1&d=1280250037 Edited July 27, 2010 by herbiemercman added more text.
