Andrew Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 Yeah I sent a PM to Geeza about that one too, as I knew you were looking, I was looking at both. But as I don't know what the insurance company are doing with mine yet I can't do anything. What's the red one like btw? Did I miss a good car?

Mid_lifecry_sis Posted October 14, 2004 Author Share Posted October 14, 2004 not as good as Waynes m8 - new intercooler needed and a paint job i guess... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 Even if the paint job was mint, it would still need to be resprayed mate No disrespect to owners of RED supras, I was one once I looked at the red one and thought, hmmm needs exhaust,wheels, paint job, FCD etc..... It's nice to get an unmodded one I guess, but the cash tots up for those small bits and pieces. Wayne's Supra on the other hand as all that done pretty much. Still hope its a good one for you mate, just think that's what Geeza's looked like once, and look at his now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 Theres nothing wrong with red, someone needs to post that widebody supraforums one with the HRE's, superb looking car.. would make Gezzas and many others on this board look average.

Mid_lifecry_sis Posted October 14, 2004 Author Share Posted October 14, 2004 mmmm..... Waynes is the better car m8.

Geezabloke Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 Originally posted by Mid'lifecry'sis no. gotta be UK now I ve ridden in one guys.... Now wheres that Fukcin Bus picture gone?????...lol Well? have you bought it yet? Got another one lined up? I wasnt 100% on the Red one we saw? Drove nice and went OK if very quiet (thats stock exhausets for you) but the SMIC was knackered, the history was a little patchy and the front had the bottom lip trim missing. Plus the odd touch up here n there. Remember with spraying in Red cars the pigmentation problem under sodium street lights. If you did go for it, hope you get a good deal and Top Warranty? And you will soon get used to the LAAAAAAG in ya lardy bus...... Dave :flame Dev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mid_lifecry_sis Posted October 15, 2004 Author Share Posted October 15, 2004 mmm, did you mean the attached? I want Wayne Popes car, but it would mean selling my Vectra first and that could take a few months - err anyone want a new 6 month old Elite Vectra 2.0 DTI? £11k!!! lol RRP 19k I think!!!! lol Bugger - really ... no... what a shame, what a fcuking shame... He's only gonna give me 9500 for the Vectra when trade in is £11100 and private black book is £12250 - fcuk wit, so I've kinda comprimsed and said add £1k to Sup price makin it £12990. All going pear shaped but I've got the bug and running with passion and not sence on this - someone slow me down! It could be fcuking ages before another UK comes up... He's doing the following on the service and commiting to the RAC 5 star warrenty for 1 year incl turbos. Paint the Supra's front end, roof scratches, side and rear blends include mirrors, above exhaust where its been blown and has an orange colour and various other scrapes dotted around the car. clean the brake callipers paint/enamel RED whilst the job is being done Full valet, wash of carpets etc 12 months MOT Full service as per Toyota instructions and maintenance schedule to include Drain old and replace new Transmission oil, Drain old and replace New Coolant, New Oil filter, Drain old and replace New Oil (which the turbos rely on), New Air filter, drain old and replace new high dot Brake Fluids a must, pads if necessary/copper etc, New fuel filter is a must to prevent detonation etc. Plus written confirmation on bushes and suspension wear and tear and estimate on refirb or repair perhaps via the MOT. 1 year RAC 5 star cover is inclusive with the written confirmation of the turbos so am I being raped?

Scooter Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 Originally posted by Mid'lifecry'sis no. gotta be UK now I ve ridden in one guys.... so you want a uk car, from a dealer who will p/x the Vectra, but you don't want to get raped.............this could be tricky:D There are so much better vfm cars out there IMO but if you've got the bug and are running with passion then what i say won't count for diddly........... did that help to slow you down?............... no i didn't think so:p btw why no Jap spec, just look at Monkeymarks car to see the potential:conf: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 Wayne's seems a better buy, nice new turbo's fitted and lots of money recently spent should mean less worries for you. At least we seemed to have put the brakes on ya a little bit, red one did seem a little steep for how you'd described it....... good luck and hope to see you at a shell garage soon:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
