  4. Member has had change of heart car still for sale. 32.5k sterling no offers.
  5. Yes all old mot and our nct reports with mileage verification. There is some Irish lads on site who know car etc jelly bean I'm sure can vouch for the car etc,
  6. Price 32500 sterling car spec and photos still same as in my garage except ( will get new photos up later) Mileage is now 59k, there is also AFR gauge, new tires on the standard 17inch wheels 245/45/17 front 265/40/17 rear. On car at moment is 18tte wheels brand new tires 8.5 255/40/18 front 10 285/35/18rear. Both sets or orginals can go with car. I have for last 15yrs ,34k when I acquired and has been meticulous looked after, all usual oil oil filter( shell, ultra) gearbox oil(ATF Mobil 1 shc). Plugs ik22,coolant Toyota red, changed every 5k. Car was bpu ed in tq developments in uk by Sam Brogan and team(spec in garage). The only negative I can see with car is drivers headlight from time to time gets bit condensation in it apart from that the car is mint inside and out. All original Toyota books documents even purchase price receiept(Toyota Southampton) plus all tq develoment dyno etc receipts. Car is nct/mot engineers report also there if anyone wants it, still have both cats(wrapped up).2xkeys alarm. Reason for sale is simple I don't have time or get enough time to drive and really enjoy it. Anyone serious about car can collect you get cheap flight to Dublin airport look drive car etc and will be dropped back. This site won't allow my photos to be uploaded but can what's app etc serious potential buyers.
  7. Get up to Dublin you can have spin in mine, there is a mint white UK spec auto for sale on AutoTrader site it's dropped 4k to I think 26k looks mint low mileage, I actually can't understand why this has not been snapped up.
  8. Very wise anto glad you saw sense it's pity your budget didn stretch as you be on boat tmr with a mint UK spec, take care keep looking.
  9. The we irish as a car nation in generally are animals were purely A to B I'd never buy a 2nd car even from main dealer in Ireland, however there is small group car fanatics, the whole vrt rebate thing threw me but I think Finn is honest genuine he has agreed to any inspection so time will tell, the main prob I feel is history before Finn had it etc, I can't really comment on price as I'd want at least 10k more for mine if I were ever to sell, but as they are getting scarce now and he wants a supra it's a sellers market. I love my supra and as 2nd or 3rd car is a lovely car to own. And over here in ireland I guess it really stands out as we don't have the Aston Martin porsche Ferrari Bentley market. There is not a day you drive it without people flashing you beeping thumbs up pulling up alongside egging you to give the beans.
  10. If the car originated from ireland but the car was imported from Japan he won't get any rebate unless I'm reading this wrong.
  11. Let's see how it drives pulls handles etc that's all I be concerned with helping you with the price etc etc haggle is with you guys, what you have to ask is how much is it going to cost to put that supra to your own personal touch taste etc wheels body interior or maybe your happy with how it is and looks.
  12. Yes your correct mate again unless there have been huge changes in the law. I think I paid about 500 pound vrt 15 or so yrs ago when I brought mine in from UK.
  13. I just spoke to the potential buyer lads I'm picking him up sat morning in my supra will bring him to the buyer who I know very vaguely so I will look after him best I can. Unless the law has been radically changed not only is there no refund he will actually have to pay to bring car and pay to register car in uk as this car wasn originally brought in from UK it was imported from Japan.
  14. I just checked vrt on 20 yr old supra less then 700 euro to import into ireland.
  15. I'm lost in sense of this thousands of euro you say you can claim back ie the vrt which on a 20 yr old supra was less then couple hundred. Plus it's been paid and put on Irish plates so I stand corrected but your not entitled to any rebate in fact will you not have to pay to reg car on UK plates, this whole thread has me baffled.
  16. I have mint and I mean mint UK supra I'm couple miles from Dublin airport if you want compare it etc I pm you
  17. When you coming over is it to Dublin if you want I can pick you up drive you up to see car
  18. I think I might know this car is it up Monaghan way close to the border, and the owner, if it's car I'm thinking of Bradley motorsport may shine more light on the car.
  19. Here is my 2pennys worth the type r hks front mount made massive difference over the original no more heat soak and could boost all day long at 1.2bar. Downside you have to loose the active spoiler mechanics, which didn bother me as your saving weight also.
  20. Omg that's some interior the combination of materials. Omg.
  21. Honestly best go to your local back street mechanic get car up on ramp let him bleed it and you pump pedal 1liter fluid will do you for both master and slave cylinder. 30 mins work,The bleed nipple on slave is on passenger floor sort area under the car.
  22. It's really a 2 man job really one pumps the pedals other drains.
  23. Can't go wrong with Castrol syntax diff oil I think I have b373 in my UK supra manual.
