Guest UKSoop Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 My Better half as demanded I get rid of my UK Supra - which i have reluctanlty put up for sale on piston heads. Where do I go from here - what is a decent buy for around £6-£7k, but with a bit of grunt but with an element of practicality? I was thinking a 3 series 2000 onwards, but think they're long in the tooth? Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave17 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Yes 3 series coupe would be my choice, post 2002. I think they still look great and have a nice choice of engines, as well as all the luxuries of a bima. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bromy Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I have had my hand forced to get rid of my supra. Think I am going for the 330 E46, I was thinking M3 but I have been put off by large repair bills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks as though a post 2000 330 sport or se can be had for £4k - lot of car for the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyT Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 2JZ-GTE VVTi Toyota Aristo/Lexus GS300 Agreed. 4 doors, big boot, family friendly, fast as f**k. If not, there's a nice Lexsum estate for sale here for 1800 notes. No miles to worry about. Great ownership. Still fast as f**k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kslb Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Our little one is 11 weeks tomorrow and has already been to her first Supra meet and she loved it. We had a two hour drive to get there and she slept all the way nice and comfy in one of the Supes. I have told the wife I would like to get her a supe for her 1st birthday and just maintain it for her until she is old enough to drive it. Supras is how my wife and I met and both of ours will be kept for posterity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
