Motorsport legend, Hollywood star and all-round automotive icon, Toyota’s A80 Supra has to be one of the most recognisable and sought-after vehicles of the last 30 years.
Developed under the guidance of chief engineer Isao Tsuzuki, the fourth-generation Supra was unlike anything Toyota had produced before. Its aerodynamic, lightweight body and high-performance over-engineered running gear were designed with one thing in mind, speed. With features such as an aluminium wishbone, gas-filled rear spoiler, specially produced hollow carpet fibres and a magnesium steering wheel, the Supra was built to be a light, fast, high-speed performer, which helped it dominate in various elements of the motorsport world.
From drag racing to touring championships, drifting events to Le Mans, the Supra became a notorious name achieving podium after podium yet this success never seemed to broaden into the retail world. Sales at the time were mediocre, largely due to the struggling economy and the cars' hefty price tag, which eventually led to sales in the UK stopping in 1996 and production coming to an end in 1998.
Its appearance in the Hollywood racing blockbuster The Fast & Furious in 2001 brought attention back and reminded everyone of its immense capabilities, reigniting its name and positioning it as one of the most loved tuner cars in the scene. Its fame since has only grown, with enthusiasts globally increasingly falling for its sweeping, seductive appearance and incredible performance. With the increase in popularity, good, well-cared-for original examples are becoming harder and harder to locate, which makes this 1994 UK spec Supra a very attractive opportunity.
One of the very few UK spec Supras that made it onto the roads, this Excellently presented, highly original car has benefited from extensive care over the years, especially in its current ownership, where it has been owned by an enthusiast and former Toyota technician. Benefiting from a respray in its original Rosso Red and regular mechanical maintenance this Supra is accompanied by a large folder of maintenance plus its original service portfolio.
The Supra is one of few cars that needs little introduction, widely reviewed as one of the best cars Toyota has ever produced and a legend of the automotive world. This car is a wonderful representation of the Japanese icon and would make a great addition to any enthusiast's garage.
The current owner is an enthusiast and a previous Toyota technician during the release of the Supra, where they inspected and maintained the car for the main dealer

Inside the Supra, sporty luxury is combined with purposeful function. The driver is positioned in a fighter jet-like cockpit, encased by an exceptional dash design which has been styled to ensure complete driver attentiveness. The supportive sports seats are comfortable as well as stylish and the ivory leather trim a perfect combination to the exterior Rosso Red.
There is some sign of usage present, most noticeable on the gear lever and passenger door car. The leather trim however is in good condition, with only the smallest usage present. Inspired by motorcycle and aircraft design, the Supra is logically laid out with switches and controls sensibly positioned for effortless input from the driver. It's a wonderful environment purposely designed to ensure the performance of the car can be completely controlled without exhaustive effort.
From its immediately recognisable rear end, its stunning sweeping body and exceptional poised stance, the Supra is a sublime, enchanting car that flirts its capability in the most captivating way. Presented in what we believe to be the best factory colour, Rosso Red, this Supra has benefited from prior windows out respray to its original colour which also included replacement trims and badges.
There are some blemishes present, most noticeable on the near side rear, a couple of marks on the roof plus a few stone chips to the front bumper which we have done our best to photograph, there are also some imperfections visible within the rear taillights. Its attractive, provocative appearance wowed critics at its reveal back in the 90s and to this day it continues to bewitch onlookers.
The Supra's legendary status wouldn’t exist without its reputation for being an incredible performance machine. Its famed 3.0L 2JZ engine is powerful, robust and can be extensively modified to produce some insane benchmarks, with reports of some being tuned to produce over 1000bhp.
This example is very much original, being maintained regularly with genuine parts used wherever possible. It has recently benefited from service and its 8th consecutive advisory-free MOT. During our visit the car was driven and manoeuvred multiple times, starting and stopping without issue or concerning noises. Upon ignition, it springs to life, providing a sumptuous soundtrack that intensifies as the revs climb, encouraging further foot-down thrill.
Underappreciated during its heyday, the Supra has since become one of the most recognisable, adored and sought-after cars ever to be produced. Its Hollywood stardom, motorsport triumphs and continuous enthusiast admiration have propelled the car to an elite level and its desirability seems to grow year on year.
This unmolested, original UK car is a gorgeous example of the marque, meticulously maintained by a Supra fan whose dream was to one day go from pre-delivery inspecting them for a main dealer to owning and experiencing the sheer excellence that is provided by the A80 Toyota Supra

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.

Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
