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.

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.....

Thanks for the tip mate. I'll stay away from there Smile

purplewitch my supras done 200,000 miles too

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

Thank you! I noticed there a few more Swedish people looking for supras over there. I'll keep my eyes open.

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 interested

Be a great car to take to the show :-p

It 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:

A 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 here

I 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.

Um.... no, thank you :gay:

Thanks for the tip, but that model has never appealed to me. Perhaps it's the bizarre looking dash.

It most certainly is not! Faster, more comfortable and better on fuel than an IS200, what's gay about that Smile

Very sorry, I didn't realize it was an R.

There are a bunch of Accord Type-R for sale in Sweden. What makes the Euro R special?

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.
