Background:

 

One of the cleanest examples of a Toyota Supra you will ever see. After 6 great years of ownership, I am fortunately in the position to afford a Porsche 996 Turbo, hence the reason for the sale.

 

I have been a member of the MKIV supra owners club (http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/member.php?1836-DamanC) since 2004 where I became a regular member at local meets and events, so much so I was a club events organiser for 5 years. I purchased the car, from another owners club member, in June 2005 in its standard form and transformed it into the tastefully modified machine you see today with no expense spared.

 

Serviced religiously by GBH Motorsport (http://www.gbhmotorsport.co.uk) who described the car when they first saw her as "The best condition Toyota Supra" they had seen and still maintain the same statement over 6 years later.

 

The paintwork is in excellent condition, I personally have carried out paint correction every year since owning the car, and the car is cleaned once a week. The Side skirts and rear spats are Genuine OEM, the Spoiler is a Genuine (never knew of another genuine one) TRD Spoiler and the front bumper is a Do Luck replica complete with under tray and 20 professional hours to make it fit how I wanted it, perfect! All paintwork is original aside from the front bumper, side skirts, spats and rear spoiler. It has never been involved in a accident or shunt.

 

No rust what so ever and the underseal is as good as when it was first done.

 

Inside can only be described as new.

 

The entire car is fitted with a mass of very rare parts as described in the full car spec. Upgrades are from very reputable manufacturers rather than a load of unknown parts.

 

The Toyota Supra Twin Turbo is one of the most reliable cars you could ever own, in over 6 years I have only ever had to replace the Battery, Radiator and rocker cover gasket.

General notes:

 

The car is 100% perfect. Every system including traction control, climate control is all working as it should. The car drives just as well as it did they day I got it, all be it just a bit faster!

 

The Auto box is strong and shifts through the gears as it should. For the manual lovers out there, the auto box is unlike many other auto box's with smooth and fast transition between gears. Autos are also faster in a straight line than the manuals. The option to manually shift is there should you want it.

 

Insurance group 20. I can recommend A-Plan or Sky for insurance quotes. They both offer specialist insurance.

 

The car is seriously fast, its not for the faint hearted. It will turn heads.

 

Overseas buyers welcome.

 

Payment to made in full by bank transfer and cleared before collection or cash deposited at the bank before you can drive her away.

 

The car is located with myself in Colchester, Essex.

 

Any Questions then please feel free to contact me.

Having seen this car in the flesh on a few occasions I can confirm that the quality is almost un matched in the club. The paint has a lovely rich look to it.

 

Good luck with the sale Daman. Make sure you test drive the 996 before you make the jump as I was a little unimpressed once I got inside.

I can vouch for the condition of this car, it truly is stunning & as mentioned you would be hard pressed to find another example as clean & as well looked after as this! This isn't a Supra with one good thing going for it, but it has the power, the looks, the interior & a sweet sound system to boot.

 

It is a shame you are selling Daman but don't be a stranger mate :)

My personal favourite Supra on the forum, spent many a month as the phone/laptop wallpaper.

 

As Abz has mentioned it has so many things going for it not just a few plus points here and there. Definitely one of the best on the forum/in the UK.

 

Again, few years too early for me otherwise it would have a sold sign in the window. I have a feeling this will go abroad as many lovely examples do, but whoever buys it hopefully they will take care of it to the condition it has been maintained thus far.

 

Don't be a stranger, GLWTS.

Thanks Gentlemen :)

 

I love this place! The Porka forums are like *that* tumble weed forum :(

 

I certainly wont be a stranger, when I have the space ill be getting another, ideally Id like to buy mine back if the new owner is interested. I hope I am still welcome to the meets and events despite being in a European wagon.

If you do make the jump to a 996, think about getting one with some kind of warranty on it. I've had mine a few months and cracked a liner on cylinder 6, bill is going to be around the £10k mark.

There's a few inherent weaknesses in the engine that are very costly if they go wrong (intermediate shaft bearing and liners being a couple of them). Generally pretty reliable cars, but if they go wrong it's big £££'s, so make sure you do your research before you buy and plan ahead :)

 

Good luck with the sale of the Supra :)

Thanks Gents!

 

Kill, are you talking about the NA models rather than the Turbos? Either way, not nice news for you to get :(

 

Oh, ignore me, I missed the bit about it being a Turbo. I have a normally aspirated 911, the Turbo engines are completely different as far as I know and don't suffer the same problems.

Wow-big drop! Had there not been much interest!?:blink:

 

4 to be exact!

 

2 no showers, one guy saying he will have it but needs to raise the funds and another that made it halfway round the country but had to turn back as the wife was moaning.

 

A few phone calls which normally go along the lines of "will you ship to Nigeria" or "I need to raise the funds and then ill be down".

 

To be honest, I just want her sold. 10K, that's the car, that's the price, everyone's a winner. I fully expect it to go pretty quick now considering the amount of interest. :(
