tony tt Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Today i was driving round the M25 just at the potters bar junction and to my horror i seen a supra towing a caravan!! wtf? It was mkiii the older shape but still there not built for towing that crap around. The guy had piller pods with 2 gauges fitted and the big goofy extended mirrors on it. what a nob!!

foodfreak Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Dude used to tow a bloody Great trailer....... so did I on my U.K spec. When you have kids & loads of crap to take on holiday, a small trailer makes life a lot easier & the towbar is detatchable......horses for courses mate:innocent: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexM Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 So he wants to go on holiday and take his Supra with him, what's wrong with that? Wouldn't you like to be able to go for a drive when you're away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony tt Posted May 1, 2009 Author Share Posted May 1, 2009 Well now you mention it i suppose i would like to take my supra with me maybe it was the initial shock of seeing one towing a caravan!! A trailer with your extra things in it i can understand but a caravan? Iv'e a mental block when it comes to caravans at the best of times but not on a supra no!!

Kranz Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I was considering a tow bar for the Supe so I could move garden waste etc.... cos there's no chance all that rotten wood and stuff is going in the boot Never did it tho..... just used the Mrs' car when she was away The Supe is big enough and powerful enough to tow, and it would certainly suprise a few to be overtaken at ???? leptons by a caravan combo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could be seen doing around 150mph between J17 & 18 on the M25 on a regular basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure that's slightly over the speed limit for towing isn't it???? Unless he was in the inside lane, of course..... much like builders vans towing those small road rollers. There mist be no speed limit there Didn't Top Gear attempt to set the unofficial world speed record with a car & caravan??? Now there's an idea....... anyone seen Dude???

I've had words with him, but off he goes with his big heavy right foot. No really. He's just got an oversized foot - size of a flipper.
