1996 Black Facelift Twin Turbo 6 Speed BPU
http://www.christopherwaters.co.uk/images/1.jpg
Unfortunately, as with many others, it would seem the time has come to sell my Supra. As I’m currently attempting to relocate down to Manchester, I need to save a bit of money and the Supra probably isn’t the best choice in car for a city centre! I’ll be very sorry to see it go, as with the rising costs in fuel and road tax I doubt I’ll ever get the chance to own a car like the Supra again! :(
I’ve owned the car for almost 2 years, I’m only the second UK owner with the previous owner also being a mkivsupra.net member – chiefvinso (http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/member.php?u=4223) - You can check his previous posts to see the history of the car.

Recent Work Carried Out
92,000 - Engine Oil and Filter Changed - Silkolene PRO S 10W-50 and Genuine Toyota Filter
92,000 - Gearbox Oil Changed – Genuine Toyota V160 Oil
The condition of the car is excellent inside and out, and 100% mechanically sound. The only negative points with the car are cosmetic...
In order to stop the 18” alloys I had fitted previously from rubbing, the rear arch lip had to be trimmed. I had this done at the very reputable bodyshop GVN Coachworks in London. Unfortunately the passenger side rear arch has started to rust slightly since this work was carried out, however so far the problem can only be seen when looking from the ground up at the arch. As I live so far from London I’ve never had chance to revisit GVN to have the problem rectified, although I’m sure if I had the guys would have done it cost free and may even be willing to offer some discount to the new owner.
Aside from the usual car park dings and stone chips you’d expect to see on any road car, there’s also a small scrape on the front bumper and the sideskirts are cracked underneath. Ideally I'd like to get these resprayed, but as can be seen from the pics, its not exactly necessary.
The tyre tread is a little low, all four are still well within legal limits, however these will need replacing soon.
If I don’t get enough interest in the car at the current price, I’ll spend a small amount of money getting these problems resolved, making it mint condition, and re-advertise it with the 18” Rota GTR Alloys fitted, at a higher price. These wheels are available with the car if wanted (see garage for pictures).
This is great opportunity to own one of the most desirable Supra models with almost every factory fitted upgrade available and all the added extras of a Facelift car such as newer front and rear lights, newer dash, black head lining, more advanced traction control with snow mode - the list goes on!
