With its sizeable tail spoiler and bonnet scoop Toyota's A80 model Supra Turbo certainly displayed the hallmarks of a performance 2+2, yet few British drivers will have experienced its full potential, as the sale car is understood to be one of just 250 genuine UK specification examples made. Think 320bhp resulting in a 0-60mph acceleration time in the mid 4 second bracket and an electronically-limited top speed of 155mph, rising to nearer 180mph if unfettered – i.e. serious performance even by today's standards.
This rare UK-market Toyota Supra Mk4 Twin Turbo was originally delivered to its fortunate first owner by Rylands Solihull and registered on the 14th of November 1994. Finished in striking Red paintwork with a Beige leather interior, it is fitted with a 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged ‘2JZ-GTE’ straight-six engine, producing 326bhp, coupled to a Getrag V160 six-speed manual gearbox with a Torsen limited-slip differential. Further improvements and upgrades include ‘Blitz Techno’ staggered-fitment alloy wheels with Pirelli P Zero Nero tyres, Brembo Gran Turismo brakes, a TRD fuel cap, adjustable HKS coilover suspension, an HKS competition exhaust and front-mounted intercooler, HKS and Samco hoses, braided oil cooler hoses, an HKS Electronic Valve controller and A-pillar mounted gauges, Momo pedals and a Cobra Cat 1 alarm system.
The history file accompanying the car shows that this Supra has been very well looked after and serviced regularly. In July 2021 it was serviced by Revolution of Bromyard, which included a timing belt replacement, fresh fluids and filters and two new Pirelli P Zero Nero rear tyres. According to the vendor the car drives and handles beautifully and is in stunning condition inside and out, having covered only 49,000 miles. It has had just four previous keepers on the V5c and was in single-family ownership from 2002 to 2021. Forming part of a private collection of 1980s and 1990s Japanese vehicles and having been used sparingly it is now offered for sale including the cherished registration ABJ 746. Accompanying the car is a large history file with owners handbook, stamped service book, invoices, workshop handbooks and drawings, tools and two sets of keys.
