Bobbeh Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 The UK spec cars were built in limited numbers, I dont know how many exactly but that figure is probably around the number. Get some pics up and enjoy your new car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 I think it was around 650 all together. 115K is no big deal if they haven't skimped on services and oil changes. I'd change the autobox oil with fresh TypeIV (only!) as well as oil/coolant/PAS fluid/rear diff/brake fluid. fuel/oil/air filter too. Check for proof when the cambelt was done, it could be that it needs doing around now (it's every 60K miles) Welcome dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael parker Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 Hi and welcome, i believe i read that 623 were made in the uk, @ approx £38000.00. The uk ones are all TT's and are all top of the range with cruise, leather electric heated seats, headlamp washers, bonnet scoop, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mace Posted July 10, 2005 Author Share Posted July 10, 2005 Thanks everyone im lucky actually at this time ive got 2 mk4 supras the n/a and the uk TT when i pick it up, but the n/a will be up for sale if anyone wants it, not asking much for it, and its an excellent car... Wow only 623 uk cars thats rare then, how much are they worth these days, got mine for a very fair price i think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 Hi and welcome, i believe i read that 623 were made in the uk, @ approx £38000.00. The uk ones are all TT's and are all top of the range with cruise, leather electric heated seats, headlamp washers, bonnet scoop, etc. they do have several deficiencies though, as I'm sure people will be quick to point out 1. larger brakes that add unsprung weight 2. larger injectors that need the superflous resistor pack (more weight) 3. bigger fuel pump, more lard 4. the scoop that is unaerodynamic and tacky and useless 5. rear diff cooler, yet more weight 6. extra transmssion cooler, enough with coolers 7. glass headlights, cheap and nasty, don't turn into proper yellow 8. 17" wheels as standard, all fluff and showoff 9. no limiter at 112mph, so no dodgy conversions mucking up the PAS etc. where's the fun in that? 10. full leather, instead of half leather (rear half ffs) (there's more, but you get the idea) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnA Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 It's tongue and cheek mate, we do have fun on this subject. The hard truth is that if I were to buy the best possible supra today I'd go for a late VVTi aeroTT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
