ozz Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 linky My move to canada has been postponed for a few months so I'm toying with the idea of buying a cheap toy (the freelander is great, if a little boring). I'd love a gunmetal NA in manual but they appear to be very rare. This TT caught my eye -I'm guessing the mileage must be questionable? If genuine then I'd say its at least 1500 underpriced and I'm tempted to offer something. Not a great choice for the winter though! linky2 this one also caught my eye, cheap but its an auto, not sure I could live with that, didn't realise they did an NA in this colour, thought it was just the UK TT. Thoughts? I prob shouldn't buy anything, I don't need to but want a sub 5k fun car for a few months to cheer me up for delays of relocating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st3ven1 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I certainly wouldn't say it's under priced! The engine bay condition does not lead me to believe this car has only done 45k miles. Looks more like 145K than 45K. But this is just my observation. It has a UK spec speedo, again just an observation, doesn't detract from the car. I wouldn't be looking at a supra for a car as a toy "for a few months" unless it was really cheap, in which case you can easily sell it quickly to get your money back. IMO, if you bought this and tried to sell it in a few months, you would struggle to get your money back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozz Posted September 24, 2012 Author Share Posted September 24, 2012 I guess you're right, if the mileage isn't genuine then its a silver TT with crappy wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st3ven1 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I'd also be dubious about the fact he says it's a 97 but it doesn't have any facelift body panels or any facelift interior. I've seen 96 cars with both. Even if it was a late 96 car registered 97 it would more than likely have some facelift features. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batmax Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) Definitely not a low mileage supra, that's for sure, a lot of rust ! Edited September 24, 2012 by Batmax (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
