jamesmark Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 With the condition of paint work it needs a full rub down as scabs on arches. Front and back. £1500, body kit to oem is near £500 smaller breaks to replace. £3/500 coil overs £600. At the end of that, you wouldn't see change of 15k for na. And that's a fact. Mate if you are worrying about costs already and you are not even an owner yet, I would walk away as the Supra is not going to be the car for you. Costs are only going to increase, as long as the car is not hanging I would say £10k is a good enough price for it in todays market.

Brian_C1 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 It's priced high for an Irish market but I know you can't compare that to the UK market, my TT6 only cost the equivalent of 15-16k GBP 2-3 months ago and sounds to of been in much better condition than this NA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(obviously not seen the car) I was in this same boat but the car I bought was far off. Guess this is good advice as many local owners of the car complain that it only eats the wallet as you never stop doing on the car. If I were in your shoes, I would factor in the aspect that v160's are still pricey in the market and body work is not something you may need to attend to now. The coil overs as well are not needed now. You can sort all that out a year later or so. I would get the car, service it and enjoy it till funds are available then repair the body work and then start modifying it with the coil overs and so forth.

I think I'll take the plunge. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
