michael Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Just think of it as being a pretty Lexus GS300, most mechanics should have no problems with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 My local garage does all my work and as of yet I have never needed a Supra specialist. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supraspeed Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 my theory is, when you need to replace parts, buy uprated performance parts, they last longer and are usually shiney!!![GRIN][/GRIN] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Yes, no problem at all getting parts. Toyota dealers can be expensive, you don't need to spend a fortune on filters, plugs and oil etc and they're all readily available at the normal places including Halfords.

stevie_b Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 As others have said. For that extra peace of mind, be aware of the things that need checking from time to time (e.g. subframe bolts) so you can ask your mechanic to check them for you.
