Protential Supra Owner

[DBR]

Ok peeps,

I am trying to convince my m8 to get a supra ( uk spec ) (and join the club) …………… and he has a few questions and worries , (which I have already ansewed but he wants others opinions!??, I will print this post off and show him your ansews)

Right a bit of info firstly:

He is 22 and owns a black Hyandai Coupe? , (don’t laugh he actually loves this car) it has done 20,000 miles an is in pretty good nik!, he reckons he can get about £11.5-12k for it…………. my argument is that he could drive a SUPRA at no extra cost and maybe even save money!, (about 10k for a low mileage, stock, uk spec + 1-2k for insuance!!)…..AND OF COubik HE WILL THEN HAVE A SUPRA!! in my opinion far better than a hyandai. And he is a big fan of jap cars especially the supra (never thought he could afford one)……… so why not go for it is my question to him!!??

But his main worry is this…………lol!

Wait for it………………………

He thinks a supra could be a unreliable super car!!!!????????? :o ….. I just laughed an said well try getting a lotus then????!!! LOL!!!!!…..and also explained that a full service history supra, an well looked after is probly one of the most reliable cars you can get…almost bullit proof!!

His other worry is that the servicg prices will hit the roof……..

The car he is looking at has a full toyta serv. Hist, is on 70k (which he thinks is high mileage??)……and is completely stock, and is up for £9995.

Ive told him what to do……..

Can you guys/girls give him an opinion too

p.s. sorry for the long pos

What is this Supra? Turbo/non turbo, Uk or Jap?

If he can face what's gonna be very expensive insurance then he should go for it, it will not be easy or cheap to insure though!!!

Thats the funniest thing i've heard all day. If he can find someone dumb enough to pay him that much for it then please pass their details on to me so i can sell them a half eaten pot noodle for £150. :D

The mk4 supra is pretty much bomb proof and makes the hyundai look like something you find in a Kinder Egg.

Tell him to stop being a wuss and get a real mans car

Danny - take him for a spin in yours - if that doesnt convince him - nothing will...!!! :D

Seriously though he'd be better off in a soop than a hyundai anyday...!!

Although make sure he gets a good one and he should have no probs with it...

ps. you know where to come when he's ready to buy dont ya

Hyundai Coupe = MKIV Supra wanna be !

Look at the rear quarter windows, front headlamps and so on you will see a lot of MKIV styling similarities.

elephant m8, but they dont like imports ... unfortunatly

the trick is to put a woman on ur insurance as a second driver and yourself as the first driver.......... u wont believe i got quoted £1800, an putting my mum on the insurance as a named driver it dropped to £1100!!!!!!!!!!! (so get ur mum on ur insurance asa)

then let her drive ur car an watch everyone faces as a 50 year old women drives past in a toyota supra ....... :!Removed!:
