Bobbeh Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 You might get one for 4 but it'll likely be a high miler dog of a car, or clocked, nothing really decent goes cheap - unless you're extremely lucky and bump into someone who doesn't know what they're selling!

Attero Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 A good 6spd TT will cost you £7k+. To be on the safest side £8k+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morpheus Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Hi, have you checked your insurance quotes? Best do that first although my insurer quoted me only £50 extra for a UK TT instead of my Jap NA auto. Pick either a JDM TT or UK spec TT and get some quotes. The forum has an insurance specialist somewhere here. Manual turbos are all on here I think. Must have done a group buy! Ask around. Read lots of threads and study the spec's for each model variation. It seems like you can never know too much about these cars. Maybe ask David2009 about his 'Suprastick' flappy paddle auto conversion. I notice he's keeping quiet about it though.......... ;-) Certainly the cheapest option when coupled with the stock silver £4500 JDM TT on Pistonheads.co.uk with FSH that I saw this week. Properly nice bloke too but in Devon and it's 4 hours from me near North London, let alone Humberside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abz Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I could drop my price a bit for a quickish sale but I have spent £2.5k alone in the last 18 months I have owned her. The only reason I am dropping the price is to get a quick sale for monies that need to go into my property. Otherwise for a decent Supra I wouldn't. Remember if something is cheap then it is cheap for a reason!!! Good luck in your search Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraDan24 Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 If you only have 4k to spend then EVEN if you managed to pick up a TT manu, the chances of which are negligable, you wouldnt be able to afford to run it. My advice, ditch the TT idea and pick up a nice 5 speed NA, they look exactly the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
