CJ Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 I have no doubt that the car is very nice but those pics certainly dont do it or your ad any favours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeT Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 rob, you don't sound like a nice guy but i am willing to give you the benifit of the doubt, i am no expert in Supras and my add is only based on the info i got from the previous owner about 18 months ago, my car is in mint condition and the price of the vehical is also based on what i payed for it 18 months ago, best regards Mike...

Aerotop Dave Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I think Rob was being quite diplomatic there actually Definitely not a full Veilside kit, just the nose (those are standard side skirts + rear spats and standard rear wing - these would all be different if you had a 'full' Veilside kit). Never seen those wheels before. If they are a Toyota option we're talking very very rare! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 yeah, i was being polite! Yeah I know:), I just agreed with what you were saying, I guess the previous owner told you porkies Mike but maybe he was told that, who knows?, but I guess it doesn't matter seeing as it can be corrected for the new to be owner:) But as Dave said, they could be toyota option wheels but from another toyota? Good luck with the sale anyhow, I'd probably give the engine and pipes bit of a wipe, looks a little dirty from the pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't you add the Veilside front a few months back mate? I'd consider editing the original post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeT Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 I did add the nose cone a few months ago and what of it? As the original owner had told me that the side skirts were not standard and were veilside, that is the reason why the car is advertised in this manner, Please stop turning this into one of your Anorak pie fights, i am not interested, i am just a guy who is looking to sell his car for an excellent price and move on, Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerotop Dave Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 To reply or not, that is the question... It's not an anorak pie fight (thanks for that), it's about getting an accurate description of the car. If you want to advertise it as having Veilside side skirts, fine, go ahead. But now you know they aren't. It's up to you. It looks like a good car, hope the sell goes well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Anorak pie fights I like that description. Quite suitable for many threads nowadays. Good luck with the sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickyboy Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Pie Fight Chill!! It's a six speed, it's in a nice colour and it's at a good price. Should have no problems selling it and if I didn't have one already I'd probably buy it. Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 To reply or not, that is the question... i thought that too, but in response to this.... rob, you don't sound like a nice guy yes actually Mike, i am a nice guy, hence why i didnt say 'you twat, thats not a Veilside kit'. as some people have said, i think i was fairly diplomatic. now if you are gonna come on here and call us all anoraks, its not gonna go down too well, you see what im saying? an Anorak knows the serial number of all models and every detail therin, an enthusiast knows what a bodykit loks like, it was a VERY simple error, and only took a moments look to see. fair enough that you didnt know. how about saying 'sorry, wasnt aware' end of argument thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeT Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 Point taken mate but i am not into saying sorry for something that was an honest mistake, sometimes i think that theere are just too many smart asses in this world who try to sound clever about things. (not aimed at you just a generalisation) I thank you for your advice and as you can see have altered my thread accordingly. Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 fair enough mate that was why i put it as politely as i could, didnt neccasarily know if you knew it wasnt veilside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
