drift_bear Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I'm just about to sell my top spec UK R34 GTR V-Spec and I'll be looking way north of 30k. So you've got me thinking now about buying a supra once it's sold I'll be able to get a bargain. Was there not only something like 100 uk spec R33 GTR Vspec's and 80 uk spec R34's made iirc?!

paulj1 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Mines worth more coz i cut speed holes in the bonnet and wings. FACT Like the ravens ours are worth more because they're red and not many blokes can resist sexy curves dressed in red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MikeyB571 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 So true, there was only 80 cars but I think only four in red which I think is the best colour. But to find a UK car which isn't a rust bucket is the difficult thing, I completely restored mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MikeyB571 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Both cars look lovely in Red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AlexRobinson Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Best advice would be save for the car you really want, than get the car you don't just to make do This is exactly what I will end up doing, judging by my history Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AlexRobinson Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Thanks for the feedback guys, I guess its just a simple fact they have now been acknowledged widely as a classic car and they are finally starting to go up in value due to the rarity. I will need to have a think to be sure I want to commit 10k upwards for the Supra and keep my eyes pealed for any bargains I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have bought this myself as i live only an hour away in deepest darkest!!. I wouldn't worry about how much you will lose on resale before youv'e even bought one.If you are only spending 10k the car has lost most of it's money already,whats the worst that could happen,you might lose 2-3k max.

Dont bring this up i was days away from buying it was a logstic nightmare then very nearly went and got it from london, but sold the week before i was due to go to london I got my TT6 cheap, i thought i had an absolute bargin (sub 8k august 2014) but now with the gearbox trouble i'm having i just wish i had got a fresh import sometimes cheap isnt a good thing, i'm learning the hard way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got mine for a good price (I think it was) but bought it as a non running project. crazy putting the a.ount down for somthing i havent even heard run or test drove but in life i guess you take chances. he who dares wins. I hope you get your box sorted though croock To the OP save that much more and go for the car you want. I worked stupid hard to get mine and waited a year to find it as i didnt have a gopd budget at the time even then I borrowed and i still.dont have the car as its still having may parts added and being repaired but it is the car ive always wanted so it will be worth the wait. I hope you get the car your looking for. check the classifieds out but dont discount the auto. ( I was going to get one if my car i got now fell through) The auto is great and id advise you to get a ride along in both 6speed and auto as it will.blow your mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
