_Rob_ Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 :CAR NOW SOLD: It is very reluctantly that I post this, however, things change and I need to start saving to get on the property ladder. I am in no rush to sell. I have owned this car for over 2 years. I bought it with 107k miles on the clock, she now has 123k miles. During that time a number of modifications have been made to the car (see spec below). My reason for this very reluctant sale is money. I am looking to get on the property ladder and need to free up some cash, and stop spending it on my car! The car has recently been resprayed in the orignal colour. The FMIC and rad are less than 18 months old. The front brake upgrade was carried out approx 3 months ago. The paintwork is next to imaculate. The interior is full cream leather, cream carpets and OE cream mats and is in very good conditoin. No rips or tears anywhere, just minor wear to the driver seat bolsters. All parts replaced have been done so using aftermarket parts or OE original Toyota parts. I have thousands of pounds of reciepts for every nut and bolt purchased. There is full Toyota / Lexus service history up to 105, 850 miles, after that all servicng has been done by me (every 3k miles) and is documented with date, milage and work done. Timing belt and acssociated parts have been changed recently. There are no mechanical problems currently other than a touch of blue smoke occasionaly on startup (valve stem seals). This only raised its head once de catted and doesnt smoke at all on boost / while driving. There are no knocks, cracks, ratles etc from the engine nor drivetrain etc. Engine: Denso Irridium IK22 Plugs Alloy Oil Catch Can Fluidyne Radiator Stock Twins (Boost @ 1 Bar) TRD Pannel Filter GReddy 3 Row FMIC Blitz Nur Spec Exhaust Rod Millen Double Decat Fluidyne Transmission Cooler Suspension, Wheels, Tires & Brakes: 18 inch Rondell #73 Wheels Goodyear Eagle F1's DBA 5000 2 Piece Slotted discs (front) Endless CCX Pads (front) DBA 4000 Slotted discs (rear) Endless SSS Pads (rear) Goodridge brake lines all round Eibach lowering springs Electrics: Defi Boost Gauge & Control box Thor TRL FCD Clifford Concept 650 (CAT 1) with remote start External: Facelift front indicators / sidelights Clear side repeaters Rear wiper & washer jet removed Painted front and rear brake calipers (Silver base with red Supra logo) Performance: 392.5 BHP at the Crank (Hyper Sports & Racing, Wigan) I have been a member on here and on MSOC (http://www.mkivsupraownersclub.com) since purchase.

BigDino Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 If i had not of bought mine, I would of bought this one, but at the time Rob was only thinking of selling it. He can tell you i was stalking him by PM to get him to sell but decide not too. Which i was extremely disapointed about but fully understood. This has got to be one of the prettiest Supra's around and i love the look and if i can get mine to look as pretty i'll be a very happy boy:d Needless to say some of my inspiration has come from Rob's car (hope you don't mind). I'm sure the new owner will be delighted with this car and to boot Rob is a very helpful chap and has given me some good advice. Free Bump P.S I got you cheque this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
