Where did you find your FTO

Post by MrFT000 »

This might help the potential sellers out there to advertise in the best spots - where people are looking!

This applys especially to the newbies, but also others:
Where bouts did you find your fto to buy.

Ill start the ball rolling:

I saw it in my work car park, found out who owned it, enquired if it was for sale and it was - so i bought it.
My pic was too big.

I saw a FTO advertised in the Auto Supermarket, so I test drove one. This guy had 3 other FTO's in his front yard. He told me, if I wanted a particular one, or I didnt like those ones, he could get me one from Japan. 3 months later, my car arrived.... This guy had Supra's, Skylines etc. and I chose the FTO

From a car yard just down the road. FTO's are quite common on car yards over here...

I knew it was coming 3 months in advance because they had it advertised on their website with pictures taken when they purchased it in Japan. So when it arrived, I went and took it for a test drive, and decided that I wanted it!
