Guest chrisflorey Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Hi all , Im currently toying with the idea of selling my scoobie and getting a supra buy I must admit I don't know a great deal about them and want to know what I should look out for .. Im after a 3L tt . My car is worth between 8-9k (I hope) and am most likely looking to spend around the same... maybe upto 10k .. Been on piston heads , ebay and had a quick too on here but there are loads kicking about so I don't know where too start... and help would be be grateful ... Cheers in advance chris:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mas Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Welcome and there are few very nice supras in the "for sale" section, have a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Welcome to the forum Chris, as Mas says there are a few out there, you just need to look long and hard before taking the plunge if you are going to spend that kind of cash. Loads of info on here, just take time to mill through it. Have a read through this as a starter. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=67644 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest shadowake Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 You should be able to pick up a pretty mint example for that kind of cash, so shop around and don't be affraid to turn a car down if it has too many little things wrong with it.
