thewheelman Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Morning everybody. I've been on the forum lurking for a while, watching for the right supra to come up. I've seen this one on EvilBAY and was wondering if any of you guys know it / previous owners? Also can anybody see any problems with it?

Dnk Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) It looks tidy in the photos, i'm surprised the paint is pristine and mark free if its done 100,000 + miles, has it been painted ? The wheels have been refurbed i'd suggest but how well who knows without closer inspection, 2 of the fake split rim bolts are missing in the one you get a close up of. I'd ask what tyres are fitted to all 4 wheels Going through the receipts would be a must to see what's been done to it and go over the car thoroughly. Ask how long the present owner has had it and take it from there, its impossible to properly assess a car purely from photos and what the seller says, i'm a bit surprised the previous owner of 11 years didn't keep any history of servicing but maybe that can seen in the receipts that the seller has Edited October 1, 2014 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewheelman Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 I was surprised when he said the mileage is all miles and was converted when it was imported, with a certificate to prove. I'll have to ask more questions I think. I asked for some more photo's and he was a bit blunt and said the pictures on the auction shows ever aspect of the car and he wouldn't be taking any more. Thanks for the hints Dunk, that'll give me some more to go at. I'm a little reluctant to travel so far for a car after previous nightmare experiences so I may just have to keep waiting and watching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Strange to get a such a blunt response, it can wear thin sometimes when you get these requests, i had loads recently when selling my Landcruiser and got fed up with wasting my time as none turned out to be serious buyers. Maybe a member on here could look at it for you, go through the receipts to see what its had done to it. Got to be someone on the south coast that's local to it that knows these cars Edited October 1, 2014 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
