how_supra Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Not bad. Though I personally think the mileage is a little high at 145km and for £7k approx, I think you could probably get one for £7k with less miles and nicer alloys But then it is a manual...............................so I'll get my coat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angie Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 It's a very nice car, but it is very standard apart from the seats and the side skirts, the mileage is a bit high, as How_supra said. You could probably get a lower mileage Aero top for that price! not unless he wants the manual, then a facelift sz-r 6 speed, can be had for £7000 to £8000. (In the UK) The problem is we don't know the pricing and availability in Norway. Are Supras reasonally common in Norway? This one I notice is right hand drive, could you get a LHD cheaper from somewhere like Germany perhaps? Otherwise it's a nice car in very good condition.

Ahh...but these recarros...are they nicked from some supra tt...or are they a regular recarro item? You could probably get a lower mileage Aero top for that price! not unless he wants the manual, then a facelift sz-r 6 speed, can be had for £7000 to £8000. (In the UK) I think he wants a manual yes...go figure The problem is we don't know the pricing and availability in Norway. Pricing...most RHD NA Supras here are priced in that aerea Are Supras reasonally common in Norway? Nope...definately not This one I notice is right hand drive, could you get a LHD cheaper from somewhere like Germany perhaps? Not a chance.... Mainland europe is starved of Supras..thats for shure Otherwise it's a nice car in very good condition. Thanx... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terribleturner Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Ahh...but these recarros...are they nicked from some supra tt...or are they a regular recarro item? Im pretty sure they are aftermarket seats mate, but then i have been know to be wrong Wouldn't of minded something similar in mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bromy Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 It says its a MT5 (5 speed manual) i thought all SZ-R were six speed, might only be a SZ, could be wrong though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menghini Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I should never buy a non turbo here in sweden, absolutely impossible to sell later. Think it's the same in norway. If I must buy (if they threaten my life) i wont pay more then £4-4500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Ahh....you mean its THAT expensive? Well, I suppose if you and the car are in the same country, that slants the price a BIT. But I can buy TT's of that year here in the UK, for that sort of money or less. I am afraid what people ask for TT's over here, like Skylines, and what they end up having to sell for are very different! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah...i see what you mean...but i suspect the man wants it the easy way...doesnt matter if it costs him a little bit more...as long as he doesnt have to waste time "getting" the car himself He's a busy man, you see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
