Havard Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Seems like a nice car but looks horribly dated from the back. Not keen on the black wheels either. I remember a bloke in Leicester putting his UK TT Auto up for £6K about 4 years ago. I was going to view it but there was someone going before me. I advised him that it was probably about £2K underpriced to be a shit house..!! H. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveC Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Just looking at the description it says: ...always kept in a heated garage,and never driven in the rain... and yet: ...the car is absolutely mint having a full respray. Before that is was stood on a used car pitch in Todmorden for about 3 years... Should I assume that the used car pitch was inside and heated?

Josh Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 whys that then? If it were 6 speed, they could advertise it for twice that and I'm sure a foreign buyer would take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPRALAND Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 (edited) That uk spec is for sale since a few month already. I contact the seller a few weeks ago, she looks clean but where is a brand new roof, so shes has been" maybe" involved in an accident.

No, it was sat on a garage forcourt for a few years.....the guy who bought it has a respray to bring the paint back up to standard.....I took a pic of it when he came in to get some parts off us!

j_jza80 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Shame it's an auto You do realise that the Getrag 6 speed box was the standard gearbox the UK Supra came with? The auto was an option. Why do you think 6 out of 7 buyers went for the auto box over the manual? The in a stock car, TT auto gearbox is better than the 6 speed. In a BPU car, the auto is better than the 6 speed, it's certainly more fun. The advantages of the 6 speed box are strength, value and fuel economy. For the majority of the time the auto gearbox is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both have there good points but for the daily grind an auto is easier to live with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
