Guest PompousRat Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Hi guys, Im Jamie, on the look out for a MK4 at the moment, most likely an N/A but would have to be manual. I live in Edinburgh and work as a roadside tech and HGV recovery driver. I've owned subarus, bmw's and an r32 gtr nismo, currently have a 55 plate corsa anyway just thought id let on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bailey Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Welcome! What sort of budget do you have for a supra? If you've had a R32 GTR, Then a N/A might feel a little slow to you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PompousRat Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Thanks Probably around £4k, Chris. So unfortunately that wont stretch to a turbo unless it's auto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bailey Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Thanks Probably around £4k, Chris. So unfortunately that wont stretch to a turbo unless it's auto Don't discount the auto mate - A lot of people will back me up! Its a superb box Very quick in BPU form. Your budget would buy you an average BPU TT Auto, Or could buy you a very clean N/A manual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PompousRat Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I understand it's an excellent box but i prefer the feel of a manual in a car like a supra or skyline and auto in say, a 5 series, e class. I've found a nice manual n/a on gumtree for my budget, hopefully it's still there when i get paid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drift_bear Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Welcome, glad to see another Scottish member! Like chris has said the auto box is great I've had 3 autos (but currently swapping my latest to manual lol) and rate them highly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PompousRat Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Cheers, if a nice auto came up for around my budget i'd definitely consider it. Nice Team Beard sticker "Bearders gonna Beard" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
