Guest Steam Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Thanks for the welcome guys! I guess it's just a case of playing the waiting game, the car has to be a UK one mainly for insurance reasons. I'd prefer a car with not many mods (probably just alloy wheels), possibly even a stock manual, so I can get used to the car and the power, and then go from there. I owned a 200sx S13 about a year ago and then went to a new Skoda Fabia vRS, bored the crap out of me, and now I'm looking for a supra just because of the driving experience and enjoyment factor.

Guest Steam Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 A quick question, how do the engines handle high mileages? Would it be best to try and find a cheaper 100k+ car and then get the engine rebuilt? Are rebuilds overly expensive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jase_93tt Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 High mileage is not a problem. However, buying a low mileage example wont necessarily guarantee it to be in better condition than a higher mileage one. Always check the UK service history. I wouldnt buy a UK car without having full service history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
