Help
Approaching 50 (end of May)
Wife says what do I want
Party????
I say would like something New & Sexy
after i recovered in hospital
i explained that i would like a fast car, we have a SEAT Cupra and i had it in at RGS motorsport in Wellingborough and saw a really nice green Supra, dont know any more about the car but fell in love
does any one know what it is
on the subject of RGS i have read some comments made by other members and i'm a great believer in saying it as it is
and i have never had anything but fantastic service by all the RGS Team, i realise every tuning shop has it's specialities but they have always done fast and reasonably priced work on all three of the families cars and they always aeem to go faster when they come out.
there, got that one off my chest!
go easy on me i'm a newbie
I would love to own a Supra, if anyone could give me some buying advice i would really appreciate it
hope you can help
Steve (Chipschapman)

The grass is always greener on the other side, its actually the same shade of brown as the side your standing on.

Accept yourself for what you are, you cannot change what you have done, only what you can do

Only problem with that Joe is the steering wheel's gonna be on the wrong side :D and as I understand it Supras in the US fetch a pretty penny compared with here.

Welcome to the club Steve. We used to have a member called Mid Life Crisis! Think he got over his as I've not seen him around in a long time.

Cheers,

Brian.

A friend of mine just died aged 49...
Well if he wasn't having a mid life crisis before, he will be now!

Welcome Steve. You'll have to make it to some of the events in the year, meet a few of the guys and you'll soon realise you made the right decision. There's a real mix of people own Supras of all ages and I'm sure you'll fit right in.
