I am selling my fantastic 1985 'C' Toyota MA61 Celica Supra 2.8i Coupe.
This car comes with lots of tax and MOT and is ready to get in and drive home, regardless of whether you live down the road or on the Continent somewhere!
It has a 2800cc fuel injected double over head cam straight 6 cylinder engine mated to switchable automatic 3+1 transmission with overdrive. It has plenty of power but is nice and sedate round town but can definately have a row when required. It also returns reasonable economy for the size of the engine. I average 40-50 miles mixed driving on £10 of fuel.
These cars are great. I love mine, and if I had room to keep it I would absolutely not be selling it.
Fantastically 80's, super rare, very retro but modern enough to use every day in 2010 with no typical "classic car" gripes. What more could you ask for?
These low slung, angular sportscars were built to rival high end German luxury coupes of the time (think Porsche 928, BMW 6 series, Mercedes SEC etc) and are therefore very well appointed with toys.
This one is no exception, benefitting from the following:
- Power windows
- Power Sunroof
- Central locking
- Cruise control
- Air conditioning
- Switchable transmission
- Overdrive
- Driver/passenger independant heating
- Adjustable steering column
- Fully electronic digital instrument cluster
- Front/rear fog lights.
- Power steering
- 12 way adjustable drivers seat (8 way passenger seat)
- Alloy wheels (including matching spare)
- Rear hatch blind
- Toyota tool kit
- The list goes on...!
The fact that EVERYTHING still works perfectly is a testament to the build quality of this car.
The car reflects it's mileage of only 87,000 and therefore is generally in great shape for the year with no issues requiring immediate attention. I have done many miles during my ownership and have had no problems whatsoever.
It drives very well indeed with nice tight handling, a confidence inspiring engine and gearbox and a comfortable ride. There are no issues with the steering or suspension and no horrible bumps, bangs or rattles.
The interior is a nice place to be - The drivers seat is so adjustable, it will be comfortable for any driver regardless of size/shape!
The bodywork is good to very good with only a few very small blemishes commensurate with age which could very easily be remedied. These are:
- Very slight surface corrosion on the driver and passenger door shuts near the striker pins.
- Very slight surface corrosion on the tailgate shut line near where the struts sit. (body not tailgate)
- Very slight signs of corrosion around the edge of the sunroof
- Slight crazing to front and rear bumpers
- Side mouldings a little tired
The corrosion mentioned in points 1 and 2 above is not visible externally, only when you open the doors or tailgate. The sunroof corrosion is hardly visible but is there so I have pointed it out to avoid any misunderstandings.
In summary, the car gleams. It really does look fantastic.The wheels and tyres are in great condition and there is nothing glaringly horrible that lets it down.
It drives great and has a very clean and original interior (the only exceptions being a tasteful CD Player and a pair of period rear speakers).
The icing on the cake is that it costs next to nothing to insure on a classic policy - I pay £120 Fully Comp with an agreed valuation!
Paperwork wise, this car comes with the following:
- Original Toyota wallet
- Original service booklet
- Original drivers handbook
- Lots of receipts
- Past MOTs and Tax Discs
- 2 sets of OE Toyota keys
- 2 period alarm key fobs
- Tax until 12/10
- MOT until 02/11
I also have a complete spare interior in good condition (minus front seats), original stereo and a spare rust free tailgate that will be thrown in should you require them.
I think that about covers everything but please call, email, text or leave a voicemail to arrange a viewing or find out more. I am based in Leicester, UK. I am happy to meet an overseas buyer at East Midlands airport if necessary.
Thanks for looking!
