FirebirdPhil STAY AWAY from that Supra in Bedford - We went there to look at a supposedly immaculate couple of cars whilst there I couldn't see a single car I would buy they were all dented, scratched to sin and in general bad repair. The cars we went to see had panel damage that wasn't in the photos even though the panel was photographed in the advert....... None of them started. The owners well I wouldn't buy a hot dog from them. Rude, pushy, clearly buying from auction doing nothing to them and adding a couple of grand. Buyer BEWARE.Thanks for the tip mate. I'll stay away from there
My idea of Immaculate is clearly different from theirs. Do not pay attention to the photos. One had clean alloys in the photo - in reality they were rusted and scabby and flat tyre.....
purplewitch my supras done 200,000 miles tooThank you! I noticed there a few more Swedish people looking for supras over there. I'll keep my eyes open.
If supra is what you want, go to mkiv owners club - the history is there of the car and the owners - and realistic prices mostly too
Rabster I don't know how much you would have to take off my stagea to get it to pass over there but we can talk if your interestedIt certainly would. I'm very tempted, but if it doesn't meet Swedish regulations it would be a disaster. We're not exactly drowning in standard Stagea parts here :tongue_smilie:
Be a great car to take to the show :-p
DaveEdin Mazda 6 MPSA lot of car for the amount of money it costs, but they are quite common here, so a RHD one would be impossible to sell unfortunately. Also, it might rust to death on our way home.
Mikey i will just leave this hereI might actually place a bid on that one before the auction ends. About a year ago I almost bought a 2003 WRX in the same color. By then it was the cheapest one in Sweden, at £8600. Thank you for the tip.

purplewitch what about a lovely totally stock Honda accord euro ?Um.... no, thank you :gay:
Colin G 300zx??? I've a shed load of spares available from one I've just broken tooThanks for the tip, but that model has never appealed to me. Perhaps it's the bizarre looking dash.

Insurance is not a problem, as long as the car has a VIN number. An Accord Type R would cost me around £400 per year.
