firepool Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Hi all Its been a long time coming but I've finally got my dream car! When I first started driving (back in '92), 1 of my mates had an Escort RS Turbo and for 5 years I wanted one but could never afford the insurance . But then I saw a Supra for the first time and I was quickly converted but again, couldn't afford to insure, or buy 1 But now its here! And since I bought it I've not stopped grinning every time I'm driving it! At first I decided that I'd get myself a n/a to keep costs down, with an auto box as Ive never owned an auto, but I wanted to get it right 1st time. So after looking at quite a few I decided to go for a black TT with a manual box (but I'd settle for an auto). I then looked at a few black TT's, but there was always something that wasn't quite right that put me off parting with my £10,000. Then I heard of a TT, Black, 6 speed Manual and a UK to boot which was just about to go up for sale from a club member, so I went to have a look and fell in love straight away, (with the car, not the member!) and so bought this little beauty! Some of you may recognise it, as it was Graham S's Supra who's a member here. He was selling to fund a wedding and really didn't want to let it go. He told me that driving it is the best feeling you will ever have and will never get tired of it! And I've got to say he wasn't wrong! I take it out whenever I can and I don't think I'll ever stop smiling every time I'm behind the wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
