  1. Wow I’m so glad to see this up and running. Haven’t been on the forum for a little while now but I always hoped this project would get underway. Has really put a smile on my face! You’ve done some spot on work gents and should be really proud of yourselves. im pretty sure that dodgy garage is under completely new management now and as far as I know one of the ex forum members doesn’t even work on cars anymore which says a lot. either way it’s in good hands now and hopefully I’ll see the old girl again one day! I’ve got some random parts lying about so ill have to take a look and see if there’s anything useful!
  2. Hope you’re doing well! How’s the blue car coming?

  3. And so the journey ends. It’s exactly 6 years to the day that I bought the car and every moment been amazing. I have had some truly life defining moments with it. Ups and downs. Funnily enough the passenger side bonnet latch jammed hence the bonnet up, so it showed it’s annoyance right at the end but it’s and easy fix. Its going to join a really amazing collection of cars alongside Lamborghinis and GTRs. I wish the new owner a great ownership.
  4. I’ve currently got a deposit down on a lotus emira and I’m really tempted to stick with it but obviously until I’ve seen it in the metal later in this month and test driven it in February I won’t know 100%. I do know for sure it’s the only car that’s appealed to me instantly for the first time in a long time! ive got an mx5 for the time being to keep me entertained which is pretty much a track car at this point lol
  5. Cheers mate. I’m sad to see it go because it has a lot of great memories but it’s time to move on. in my opinion this is pretty evident that condition is the prime motivator as it was for me. It’s good to see supras hitting such value now as they are a great car
  6. No problem at all. Hopefully that’s set the standard for Supras now which tbh was kind of already set by the parts and scarcity. It is going to Ireland so leaving the U.K. but will be sitting along a R34 GTR which is good news
  7. Car has now sold for very near asking price. Thanks all
  8. I 100% agree that the market has changed and obviously I have a vested interest too however I based it on what I could get in the U.K. and imported and I just couldn’t find anything for less that was The same spec. If I’m wrong then I’d happily be proved wrong but so far anyone I’ve challenged can’t show me the info. i definitely wasnt trying to say you or a forum member would try to scam the guy but some on Facebook almost certainly would!
  9. Price is dictated by what’s available on the market. You cannot get a TT6 imported for less than £60k that’s an impossibility. For a U.K. spec you’re looking £60k+ easy. not sure why there are some trying to lower the prices but you go by what you can get. If you can’t get an item anywhere and someone has one then they dictate the price. You will have to wait longer for a buyer as anything above £35k is outside of a the regular persons personal loan limit so you’ll be looking for people with the cash to stump up too. I’d put it up for £65K at least and see how you go. Don’t listen to anyone telling you less as they’re just looking out for their own gain. Seen a lot of those types of Facebook which is sad. I totally get why you would want to sell though.
  10. I got back my deposit once I had got to the test drive day as wanted to make the most of it! Plus thought I should wait until I drove it before making a proper judgement. I found it was very fast but drove just like a 2/3 series BMW automatic. Some may disagree but just being fast doesn’t mean it’s not boring and after test driving it again recently I can firmly say it’s boring to drive. There’s zero engagement and that’s partly due to it being an auto but also due to the fake sounds and horrible steering feel. It’s pretty obvious after driving this back to back with other BMWs that the Toyota engineers haven’t done a thing so I don’t think they should have called it a supra and I wouldn’t ever buy one. The look of it though has grown on me a lot. Especially with some small mods it looks great but looks aren’t everything!
  11. I thought I’d never sell and I was thinking that only a year ago but here we are. My life has changed so much I can’t begin to describe but that’s life. People change, life changes and it makes you want to do different things. To do these things I need to put it up for sale. If I was a millionaire then I probably wouldn’t sell but I don’t want it enough anymore to have all my cash tied up in it.
  12. Thanks for the kind words. They are much appreciated. I think the price is reasonable but I’ve had some comments on Facebook that weren’t too respectful so thought I’d simply explain myself to the forum as I’ve not seen many TT6s for sale for a long time and most people on the forum are able to have that conversation about price and give their reasoning which is great (unlike Facebook lol) The car really is a great example and I’m sure the first serious buyer to come see it will take it. Less of a risk than an import as it’s already here to inspect to your hearts content. I get what you’re saying about the price bracket of the cars moving into a different territory now. The higher the price, the smaller the pool of buyers.
  13. Only just noticed not all the photos uploaded I’ve uploaded them now. Appreciate what you are saying about price but I don’t think there are any cheaper ones available even to import that are genuine or converted. I think it’s fair but like I said for a forum member I’m willing to negotiate the price. Cheers
