rider Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 The spedo picture says 28k km which is around 17k miles. You have it advertised at 28k miles. Also, is it right the car missed out on 9 MOT's, only having two tests in the last 11 years? That does give a pretty big history gap but if genuine, a 17k miler is indeed rare.

rider Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Is there history of the mileage before the TRD clock exchange? Or was it a factory option? I believe the TRD 320kmph gauge was an option on the Series 2 Supra so its an old clock for sure with this one having the 'k' black painted over.

They're all the same. The op already said that it was fitted in Japan and the mileage was corrected and converted to MPH though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glanza_Mike Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Looks like the passenger headlight is a pre-facelift one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Bandicoot Posted June 30, 2015 Author Share Posted June 30, 2015 Scott's right, the speedo and mileage were corrected when it was imported by previous owner, and headlight wise (this was pointed out to me at bhp fuel fest by slam and Wiley) both are facelift headlamps and both lenses are plastic but one has a different lense (more lines in it, but doesn't show any signs of being ever opened)) I didn't notice this when buying it to be honest.

Lee_e Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 How this has not sold yet is beyond me !! Nice car and more than reasonable price for a 28k mile supra. GLWTS bud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With any car especially an import it is very hardly to be sure about the mileage. The only judge is the condition of the car, the reported mileage I would take with a pinch of salt. Normally a bag full of receipts and MOTs help correspondent the mileage over a number of years - however even that isn't fool proof, guess nothing is.

Crash Bandicoot Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 Lee_e, I'm thinking the same! Imi, you could say that about every supra that's not a UK spec, this is my 5th supra and I am a very sceptical person when it comes to cars, i wouldn't of paid the price I did for it if I wasn't certain it was legitimate By the looks of things I'll be keeping this, putting it in the garage and the bits I've been looking at for it will soon be bought and she'll come out next year looking even better again maybe even a chance of going 6 speed by then too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Bandicoot Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 Right, I'll offer this at £9000 no offers for the next week or two, if it doesn't sell then it's going in the garage to be pampered and may show its face for a couple of shows before next year. If I keep it I will be deleting this for sale thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st3ven1 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Some friendly advice: Take fresh pictures of the car using a DIGITAL CAMERA, every single one of your phone pictures make the car look grubby/dusty/dirty. A car with this low mileage would be spotless and good pictures would reflect that. Currently the overall condition of the car cannot be seen in detail, this doesn't help when selling a Supra at the top end of the non-manual price bracket. GLWTS.
