  1. Hi all,

    My dad has reluctantly decided to part ways with his UK Supra. He bought it back in 1993 brand new off Toyota and has loved it ever since.  

    It's got immaculate bodywork and cream leather interior with only 66,000 on the clock. Obviously the best bit is it has zero modifications, everything is original. He even kept all the brochures and docs from when he got it! It really has been well taken care of, someone is going to get a real beauty.

    It's going to Manor House Classics auction house as this is a rather special car. Below is the write up and link to the lot, it's got quite a few photos and videos on the site too, but if anyone has got any questions then send me your number and I'll pass it on to him or just shout here and I'll proxy. 

    Estimate is £38,000 - £42,000 on Saturday Feb 25th @ Manor Park Classics, WA7 1TA

    We are delighted to bring this one of kind 1993 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo Manual to market. One of only 250 original UK - specification twin turbo manual cars, one owner from new and in completely unmolested condition, go and find another. Supplied new by Lindop Bros, Queensferry on 30th September 1993 to the vendor for the princely sum of £38,000. Finished in Astral Black with contrasting Beige upholstery and a Black dashboard. The V5 does state there is one former keeper, however, it was originally bought through the vendor’s company and has since been transferred into their name. Fitted with a 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged ‘2JZ-GTE’ straight-six engine, producing 326bhp, coupled to a Getrag V160 six-speed manual gearbox with a Torsen limited-slip differential.

    The vendor states that this Supra has always been run on Super Unleaded and has never been used on a track. Couple this with the 15 service stamps (13 Main dealer) in the service booklet indicates how fastidious the owner is. This 90’s Japanese icon is a joy to drive on the road, it feels tight and robust, as you’d expect from a Toyota. The 3-litre twin-turbo engine produces effortless power whilst the seats and interior cabin keeps you in pure comfort.

    The original paint presents well with a few age-related marks here and there, as to be expected. The inside is similarly well preserved as is the underneath. Completely standard (and all the rarer for it), the Supra is a genuine timewarp and presents better – to our eyes at least - than even its modest mileage would suggest. Increasingly collectible, this exceptional Supra is offered for sale with V5C Registration, original bill of sale, previous MOT certificates and an array of invoices. Be sure not to miss this one, as prices of these continue to soar and you certainly wont find another like this.

  3. Can't believe I missed this thread! Yes I am a member of the Geordie faithful. Due to living in the NW I go to most of the away games and a handful of home games every year.

     

    Glad to have a Number 9 back again :D
