Title: GTI swap for Mk3 Supra 3.0 Turbo Manual
Post by: 1995GTI on 07 July 2009, 14:50

There is a man on the phone to me mad to swap my GTI Golf for his

1992 Toyota Supra 3.0 24V Turbo Manual Injection.

Would it be a good swap?  :undecided:

Thats the older shape model, it is very thirsty and about an insurance group 19-20. Is it an import?

if you can live with 19mpg then go for it.

My view exactly.

If its too good to be true, then it probably is!

Wouldnt bother. With an engine like that, the history and abuse the car has probably seen. I reckon there is a lot to be going wrong on the drive home. lol

As above if and when it goes wrong it will be mega bucks to sort.

She is an oldskool supra and not the more common Mk4, i dont think i will do a deal because i have grown more in the VW sence  :laugh:

She is actually very dear as he is lookin £1850.

She is a full UK Spec Turbo

Very rare to get in manual

Cheers 4 the advice!  :smiley:
