Tyson Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Yeah , im looking into differences with uk/jp spec atm trying to find out whats best for me i know i want a manual and a turbo but thats about it , insurance is about 700 a year so thats not to bad , i already pay 320 for tax and cant imagine supra is much worse .. need convincing still haha Insuring a Supra is a bit of a faff if you go with a mainstream insurer as they get confused between uk spec / jspec and between mk3 / mk4 supras so make sure you double check that you are correctly insured. Last thing you want is to have an accident and find out you arn't actually covered. Welcome to the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian W Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Tax should be £220 a year so instant savings towards your insurance Oh, and welcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross C Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Welcome matey. The scoob looks nice but a Supra is just a different league. Good luck with your search Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Cheers for advice guys , need to look into what kind i want . any advice , manual with a turbo is all the specifications i want lol Do you have a budget in mind? Don't discount the auto box, I have had both & the auto has been one of the best boxes I have used. It shifts so nicely & if you think the manual will be the quicker one then think again...

TubbyTwo Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 The kickdown in a TT auto at full BPU is savage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonR24 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Agreed DO NOT knock the auto till you've driven it! It's awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 welcome bud hope you find a supra that fits what your looking for as said the auto box pulls very very well but some people just like manual (like me ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mrblack Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 budget would be at the 5k mark ! and i guess ive driven auto''s and manuals but always just preferred manual saying that my auto was an accord .... insurance is ok on the manual 6speed twin turbo so i guess the others would only be cheaper ...

Guest Mrblack Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 sorry i just ment i checked insurance on the one which would most likely be the most to insure ... 5k is just my budget as im not sure what i want yet .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 You won't get a TT6 for 5k unless it's wrecked... Completely agree, you would need at least double that for a half decent example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry i just wasnt clear i just ment i checked insurance on them as id imagine them to be the most . so that part of it wasnt a problem.

SNIPERTT Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Theres so much scope out there mate you should have a think about what you really want ie whether you want one thats already been BPU'd or had some work done on it or something factory then do it up yourself. I bought my GZ TT aerotop just over a year ago for £6000 and all it had changed were the wheels and it was lowered, everything else was factory with around 65000 miles on it there were other cars around for the same sort of price that had kits and bits and pieces on them but I wanted a blank canvass.
