StevenOd Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Hey guys! im 21 and looking to buy a na supra. Would love the twin turbo but obviously cant get insurance etc so just going to be sensible and get the non turbo as I just want a supra! Would love any help at all on what to look out for, Came across the forum there as I googled a traders name on pistonheads called ' Clive's Performance ' and looks like a dodgy fella and not very helpful. So if anyones selling a non turbo supra in good condition get in touch thanks! Hope to be on this forum for a long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevenOd Posted July 20, 2013 Author Share Posted July 20, 2013 Hey guys hows it going? Who do you think the best insurance company would be for me? Cheapest Ive had is 1800 from elephant and just got quoted 10g from adrian flux for a na :O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross C Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Elephant and admiral are the only 2 that would really give you a decent price with your age (same as me). Ive just had a quote of £1300 for my na with1yr no claims and my mini with 3yrs on a multicar policy from Admiral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenOd Posted July 20, 2013 Author Share Posted July 20, 2013 Managed to get a quote for a tt there for 2400 which I wouldnt mind paying as I had to pay the exact same for my first year insurance on a 1 litre seat arosa ( im being super serial ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That_Supra_Guy Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Welcome buddy, where are you based? With the insurance, if you phone around you can ALWAYS get the prices down, I'm only 21 and paying just shy of 700 bucks fully comp for the year on an NA with a few major upgrades...so it's worth haggling. NA's are obviously not quite the same beast but still epic all the same. Bear in mind a TT will cost you a lot more for one worth buying, that's what swayed me towards the NA for my first one, starting to feel the power bug settling in though.... so not sure how long she'll stay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
