Jord Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Hi Ant. £8-9k should be about right if you're willing to wait and depending on the spec. Are you set on a 6 speed? I'd recommend grabbing a ride in a BPU TT Auto before you make your mind up. The auto is a great drive and if you search around the forum you'll find a lot of people that love the auto too. I was also someone who wanted a manual and didn't fancy an auto but I don't regret having an auto one bit. You'll get an awful lot for your money if you're willing to go for an auto. Worth a thought.

Hitbox Junkie Posted March 28, 2014 Author Share Posted March 28, 2014 This would be great to get a ride along in a auto bpu tt. I just in the mind set that manual is better than auto as you feel more with the car. i would have to get a ride along for both auto and man before i make the decsion to but. would i just ask on the forum for a ride along? I would feel cheeky asking for one. But thank you for the reply :-) Ant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitbox Junkie Posted March 28, 2014 Author Share Posted March 28, 2014 Pritty much all my savings from working and maybe a little bit of borrowing from the bank for the right car as i sit waiting for the roght car the money needed to borrow goes down or budget will go up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 No problem for a none Supra member to come along to a meet, obviously we just expect for people to have respect for our cars and realise they are representing the club during a club meet, even if they are not in a Supra Just keep in mind these cars are getting old now, so be aware that maintenance is vital and can be costly if you have to replace the wrong parts I would suggest you make sure you don't over stretch leaving nothing spare for repairs and maintenance Obviously we all want the best Supra we can get, but over stretching can leave you with a broken Supra sat on the drive, it's not nice when it happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
