1995 TOYOTA SUPRA MK4 TWIN TURBO

KEY FACTS

• A UK-delivered and largely restored example of Toyota’s iconic 1990s performance car hero, benefiting from a raft of new parts and a full glass-out respray.
• Under the bonnet is a 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged 2JZ-GTE straight-six engine, producing 326bhp opposed to the JDM specification 280bhp, which is delivered to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic gearbox.
• Not to be confused with imports, this original UK-market vehicle has been sensitively and fastidiously refurbished.
• It includes rare features such as the active front spoiler, full leather interior heated and electric seats, glass headlights, cooled large case limited-slip differential, headlamp washers, bonnet scoop, cruise control, bigger front and rear discs and calipers, 17-inch alloy wheels, steel turbochargers instead of ceramic, larger injectors, rear lights with built-in fog lights, four-spoke steering wheel, and leather roof lining.
• It boasts a remarkably well-documented service history from new.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• This Supra is finished in the original factory colour of Silver metallic over a black leather interior, and rides on its original 17-inch alloy wheels, housing black Supra-branded brake callipers.
• Its factory specification includes heated leather seats, an electrically adjustable front spoiler, climate control, and the original Toyota stereo with CD autochanger.
• The car features an aftermarket cat-back exhaust which is a replica of the original, as these are no longer available, and the owner was unable to find a satisfactory used example. 
• The car is accompanied by significant and detailed service history documenting its restoration, as well as all past MOT certificates.

CONDITION

• There is no known bodywork damage.
• The car has been treated to a full glass-out respray in Silver Metallic, and now presents superbly. The front and rear windscreen seals were also replaced as part of this work, along with new headlights, badges, number plates and wiper blades. Its undercarriage and wheel arches were also stripped back, treated, etch primed, and refinished with stone guard.
• Moving inside, the original black leather interior is in good overall condition, with some expected wear and creasing to the driver’s seat bolster commensurate with the mileage, and some signs of use on the steering wheel and gear lever. A new gear knob is included in the sale.
• There are no known mechanical or electrical faults.
• The most recent MOT test was in September 2021 at 104,641 miles, when the car recorded a clean first-time pass.

SERVICE HISTORY

• The car was most recently serviced in September 2021 at 104,640 miles by UK Automotive Ltd, who changed the engine oil and filter as well as fuel filter, cambelt and tensioner, spark plugs, water pump, front and rear main oil seals, cam cover gaskets, all perished hoses, breathers and vacuum lines, transmission oil, filter and seals, rear differential seals and oil, coil pack plugs, coolant, and brake fluid.
• Prior to this, in November 2020 at 104,400 miles, UK Automotive Ltd renewed the engine oil and filter, as did David Morris Autos in March 2019 at 103,862 miles.

SUMMARY

Carefully and extensively refurbished using genuine OEM parts wherever possible; this Toyota Supra Twin Turbo has largely been restored to its former glory. While the model is well known down the generations thanks to its appearances in games like ‘Gran Turismo’ and ‘Need for Speed’, this example is offered in rare unmodified condition, benefiting from much recent investment in its mechanical condition. It would be a fine addition to any assembly of Japanese performance cars.
