RobD Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 This has been playing on my mind for a month or so now, what with going into business with my mate and looking at getting a demo car for that, it'll be ages until I can afford to single my supra, it's just sitting under my car port ( where's its been sat since August!) just doing nothing and its breaking my heart! My thoughts ATM is to get rid to be honest but I really don't have the time nor have I got it in me to break this supra as its my baby! Even though its part stripped as it is its still at a stage where it can get back on the road for say £1000! It's missing headlights, front bumper, front indicators, 5 speed conversion including diff and shafts, radiator, exhaust and air intake ATM! So my predicament is, do I get the bits to put it back on the road, then sell? Sell as is? Or strip it Pic of it ATM! It's got full cream leathers, carbon dipped dash door handles etc, 19" alloys, ridox side skirts and spats with carbon trim etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkddav3 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 if you can afford it mate id leave it there, you'll regret selling it just as you did the last one! unless your desperate for money or space i think its bette to keep it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetrashcanman Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 How much would you be thinking of selling it for matey? Could be interested in it depending on price and bits, shall PM you when I'm home from work tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 I'm no way needing the cash or the space, it's more the fact I just don't want it to sit there for a year or 2 with the interior going mouldy etc - - - Updated - - - How much would you be thinking of selling it for matey?

I haven't got the cash ATM to spend on it until the end of February, I don't fancy stripping it tbh as I still need to get rid of the UK shell at my mates unit - - - Updated - - - Bloody hell that was a quick reply! Ok matey no worries, can talk about it more later, although I would say you would probably regret selling it tbh. I think so to but I've got so much going on right now even if it was only the road I probably wouldn't use it much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellis Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 End of Feb is only 4 weeks away mate! Sell it now and you'll regret it like hell in 4 weeks when you've got some funds. Wait a little longer - 4 weeks will fly by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobD Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 Use it as the demo car? It's not something we can flash the ECU on unfortunately looking at a BMW 535d for a demo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonR24 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Can't you use it as a demo car with an aftermarket ecu? Wouldn't you be able to do something with that? Also there's no worries about the interior going mouldy! There's a car for it to go into Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
