Thanks all, the RX8 alloys are winter wheels, I have the oem ones in the garage. Im chrome petrol cap is on the list to change along with removing the plastidip on the rear spoiler and front grill. Supra was an animal of a car but sadly 2 kids meant no longer practical!! Loving the MPS though just need to sort some kind of android interface for the stereo and I will be sorted.

£4500 thats around the going rate for an auto like mine. If its a 6 speed manual your looking £8k +. Epic cars, not much on the road will touch one. I will have more when kids grow up. The engine is good for 600+ bhp before it needs to be opened.
Downside is when is sold mine it cost over £110 to fill the tank with super and if driven hard would drink the lot in under 200 miles. Ouch. If you get a chance to own one, do it.

Nice cars though on a decent run it would do 25 to 27mpg. Town driving killed the fuel lol. Loving the MPS though its comfy and fast. The Supra was a certified licence loser, the 50 to 120 speed was crazy.

Hi. Lovely Supra! I always wanted one but when it came to the time to buy one, we spotted the RX-7 and just had to have that instead!

I miss my supra!! i had a UK spec twin turbo and it was mint. I had to sell when my little one was on the way and buying a house. same as this except the UK spec has a small vent in the bonnet. as standard i swear it would past near anything but a petrol station.
What pissed me off is the bloke i sold it to, tunned the shit out it, spent thousands and wrapped it. Dick head.!!!
