Help me before I buy this car please

http://www.sovereigncarsales.co.uk/S...Gridpos31.aspx

 

Guys/Girls does anyone know this car? I would love ot know what all you experts on here think - I think its worth about £12.5k

I went to see it today, lovely machine, heaps of history and absolutely thousands spent at Tuning Japanese in Aldershott

 

I am either buying this one or going up North to buy this one if not:

It s Auto which is the only off putting thing right now - how much would it be to convert to manual?

 

Help and comments please!!

None of those links are working for me mate, don't know if that's because I'm on my phone or what, converting an auto is around 3k for box pedals clutch flywheel etc, and around another £800-£1000 for fitting but I would check with someone like Paul at Whifbitz or Jurgen on here to get an exact figure.

Thanks for that I cannot get liks to work for you it works for me

if you look at classifieds where i posted same thing under help before i buy this car maybe?

 

ALso the pistonheads link to the car

 

http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/toyota/supra/toyota-supra-t78-turbo---709-bhp/1480357

 

Stay away from that car! Its got scam or dodgy written all over it, for a kick of the stock auto box can't run 700bhp, so either I reckon he's lying and got a fake dyno sheet or something.

 

Also that cars horrednously over priced, there is a black UK 6 Speed Single with a built engine for sale on here for 12k

 

Oh and +1 to what Logie said, drive the auto box first before you decide on getting rid of it, it really is a brilliant box.

 

As for the other car you posted that's for sale on here, is that this one http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?292007-1996-facelift-single-turbo

 

if so that would be a very good purchase indeed :)

I love Add's car - do you know this black one?

Thanks for advice - I thought the other too good to be true - dealer wont let me drive it unless I pay deposit - all the bills go back to 2005 but they are all immaculate as if just printed

Scary stuff

If it was me I would walk away very quickly from your choice as something says SCAM all over it to me. ok add says 1985?? N reg is 1995-1996 its a facelift but dose not have facelift headlights or indicators plus old style seats im no expert but things just don't seam right.

But if I had a choice of my 15k and even had to save my ar$e off and sale of a lung I would go for add's monster!! He's a top bloke with a very big love for his car so you know its well looked after and a well known member here!! I followed him of the dragonball and my god it looks the the nuts and go's like fook!! :innocent:

Hi mate yes I do, had been talking to the bloke, Mark who's selling it, as I am also interested in the car, but its a little out of my price range at the moment, but the car is immaculate, also know the bloke who's done alot of work on the car, Damo, he can also vouch for how good and well looked after the car is.
