staples230uk Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 As the title implies off to look at a white supra NA aerotop. Fingers crossed it will be pretty decent. £3500 does not sound too bad to me. Getting closer to becoming a supra owner woohoo!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devan Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I like my N/A, its just right for the amount of money it costs me as an everyday car. I also remember when i was looking for a Supra, i went about 40 miles to look at one, and when the showroom guy went to get it, he couldnt turn the alarm off, and he then had to bump it off to drive it to me lol. It also had a space-saver on one of the rears, the aerial was missing, and was just a big hole, and the interior was a mess. He told me for £5K it would be snapped up by the next day, Haha what a joke! Its probably still there now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 NA uses the same amount of fuel as a TT, insurance is cheaper on a TT for some reason, and if you get a good one that has had recent turbo work then servicing should be about the same too. Mine has had new turbos 8k ago so no need to worry about them, no rust, runs like a dream and costs me the same as my old NA. When you have an NA and another fast car turns up and blitzes you from the traffic lights you always think 'If I had a TT I would have shown you'. Just saying it is really worth thinking about it.

Where in Norfolk are you? £3500 is a fair price for an NA in good condition, looking forward to pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil-NA Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 If you want an NA get an NA. I was in the same boat, everyone said i would regret it but i honestly dont, sure the extra power would be handy from time to time, but aslong as you accept that its not the quickest car out there then its all just good fun, i wouldnt change the fact i bought an inferior (in some peoples eyes) model.

Exactly the same for me. I could have spent ALL of my budgetand got an auto TT, but I got a lovely NA and have spent money on improvements, insurance, subtle mods, etc etc. Oh, and lots of fuel!

staples230uk Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 To all those who were following this thread...... I went this morning to see it, was quite nice. But missing aerial, no attempt to cover it to stop ingress, electric folding mirrors didn't fold, and could be easily knocked in. Cambelt needed doing and stereo was wired live. He was asking 3500 for it, I asked whether he'd accept 3200, he accepted all too easy. Am I being too suspicious? would be nice to know your opinions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
