Its just had new rear suspension done. Also its just been valeted inside and out with a machine polish.

 

It has a fresh MOT as of the 19/10/2015

 

Obviously it does have some cosmetic chips and a few scratches for a car of this age. I would of liked to give it a re-spay at some point if I was keeping it, but it does shine up well.

It has had the cambelt changed about 3 years ago at I think it was 70,000 miles.

 

I have tons of receipts for all work carried out, even the import documents in Japanese.

 

I have owned for car for coming up 11 years now and really had no problems with the car itself apart from an O2 sensor which was cured when I brought a genuine part instead of trying the cheaper varieties which used to be sold off here.

 

You can search through the posts on here, but I think every other problem has been a third party bit of kit issue, such as the RLTC system resetting it self to a 4 cylinder config or the Clifford alarm having a loose connection.

 

The most I did spend on the actual car was about 2 years ago where I had Whifbitz fit discs, pads all round and one of their down pipes which cost me over a grand.

 

I really am going to miss the car and it still looks timeless, and when the misses drives it and I see it on the road or it pulling off I instantly think of ways a maybe could keep it, won't want to watch it drive away that's for sure.. If I had the money I would certainly keep it!

 

I do think it needs boot rubbers, so I will get these replaced. Everything else is all working and its currently used 5 days a week, instead of what it used to be which was 2 days a week, and them days both start with an S!!!!

 

I am looking for around £14,500.

 

Here are a few pictures:

Is this overpriced?

 

No? Why do you think it's over priced?

 

You sale for what you think it's worth and someone will buy with what they think it's worth.

 

Just get loads and loads of high quality pictures. Engine bay interia exsteria. And be honest with any problems little or big :)

 

I'm it's not overpriced as there hard to find and sale.for alot more in Europe or the USA.

No :)

 

The advert could be better though, you want lots of nice, big, high quality pics.

 

The blurb is also a bit basic. You are trying to sell a car to an enthusiast, so giving a bit of a backstory, and just giving an insight into your relationship with the car will work wonders. See the advert for my Corrado: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?327219-1995-Volkswagen-Corrado-VR6-manual-in-Blackberry-metallic

 

I would say price wise, you're about bang on the money.

I'd honesty say its overpriced, but going by the market and availability of TT6 Supras I'd also say not by much.

 

As has been mentioned, a better description including what OEM parts have been replaced, the servicing that's been carried out and what common Supra issues have been addressed(Valve stem seals, heater matrix, even stuff like boot rubbers and coil pack clips).

 

I'd also delete the "wet pictures" as they make the car look awful and don't show it in a good light.

Edit: If you didn't add the grounding kit yourself I'd be tempted to remove it, as it clutters up what looks like a clean engine otherwise.
