He'd want to know at least 3k off that to get any sort of interest.

Johnny Cash is selling his bus but he must be still waiting for that 1st viewer to call to his "friends" garage as the ads 40 days old and the 1st to see will buy. though 90,000 miles or kms on the clock for a 27 year old bus cant be bad

21k Supra that's "very close 2 been concourse", "bone dry and no noices", and most importantly "its very orginal". Bargain.

If it's the same car it was €29k a few months ago....

Hardly outrageous, consider that a pristine Skyline GTR from the same year will cost about 40-50 grand...

Only 84k its a kilometers clock converted to miles so id say Its only 70kms and 14k miles roughly

I'm not convinced about his maths skills

the clock was kms now miles. so there were 70kms on it, then it was swapped to count miles, and 14k miles have been put on it

so the car has done over 90k kms, but it currently reads 84km

I think that is what he is saying

Why? I think this is an estimate based on the last owners information

At the risk of getting a warning here but I have to ask.

Are you just trolling or have you got some sort of mental imbalance?

frozenfrozen

Don't say something like that to him it goes straight to his head. He thinks he's winding everyone up but really he just disrupts enough threads with comments like that, that sometimes he gets a few replies and convinces himself he is le great troll

At the risk of over shadowing the trolls criticizing one of the greatest jap cars of the nineties I felt this was something deserving of a place in the dreamers thread although a case could be made for it to be in the skangermobiles thread too thanks to dodgy matte black paint job. A 3sfe celica for 4.5k now thats value :P (450 would be more like it so perhaps an extra 0?)

well no. if you take what he says at face value he is saying the clock was changed from miles to KM and the reading is somehow a mix of miles and KM. that makes NO sense.

And no mention of NCT or tax. Looks horrible, €450 would be too much!

Normally what's done is the clock itself won't be changed, but a conversion chip on the signal wire to the speedo effectively only sends 62% of the pulses through, meaning that where you once were showing 100kmph on the clocks when you were you were doing 100kmph, it would now show 62kmph on the dial. Usually they put a sticker over the "k"
This also has the effect of making the speed where the Japanese limiter kicks in to be 180mph instead of 180kmph,
I assume this is a Japanese car that came via the uk

irrespective of how the clock was changed it doesnt show a mixture of miles and km.

the clock used to tick over every km. it was changed at 70k kms, to tick over every mile

therefore the 84k on the clock actually accounts for 90k+ kms

colm_mcm

But it does though. The odometer would be a mixture of the kms put up before the chip was put in and then the kms put up x0.62

If you had a car with 100,000km on it, then you fitted the chip and did another 100,000km - the odometer reading would be 162,000

you think they took a clock that showed 70,000 KM, changed the clock to miles, and then left the reading at 70,000? why would you do that?

colm_mcm

That's generally what they used to do in the uk. Fit the chip and not change the odometer.

fair enough. seems a very strange thing to do. for a car with 70K you are basically adding 40K to the mileage.

colm_mcm

These would generally be enthusiast owned and it would be taken for granted that that's what would be done. Owners usually hang on to the auction sheet etc,
Not really a thing here in Ireland, even before kms came in, having km only speedo in a mph country was never a bother!

No mental imbalance. you would have to be a fool to pay 29k for a supra or even 21k

that is just my opinion

Yeah but you know nothing then.

My opinion of course but also the truth. The rarity of anything makes it increase.
Except for trolls, nobody cares about trolls.

Actually on that note, i always imagine you are a young chap cos I'd hate if you were doing this at any decent age, that'd be very sad and you'd need to take a good luck at your life.
