New Supra... and loving it

Hi all

I really didn't know where to put this but I bought a new UK Spec Supra on Friday. Here's the story...

Flew from Leeds Bradford to Belfast 830am on Friday

Got picked up, took car out, checked everything and said yes at approx 11am

Drove to Larne for P&O Ferry

Arrived in Cairnryan at approx 2.30pm

Drove through Dunfries and Carlisle back to Liverpool

Arrived in Liverpool at approx 8pm

Drove it around Saturday and got used to what they call "boost"

Managed to figure out what a "duty cycle" was and how to reach 1.2bar with an appropriate Duty Cycle - AVCR manual online haha

Went out with North West lads on Sunday

Got pulled but THE NICEST member of the Heddlu

Had some great pancakes

Met some great people

Pics below

I have a dyno output that says >400bhp but I will dyno asap

I just love seeing my little blue LED in the dash come on, meaning it is on boost. I love it. I thought my NA was fast when I first got it but man, this is dangerous.

And I love the "sleeper" look. Kids pull up in their STIs at lights. It is AUTO so it epically fails on initiation but once that blue light comes on... see ya!

Hope you appreciate that I am new to the world of TTs and like you once were, I am really excited

Peace

Tony,

great to meet you yesterday. Probably see you again at the illuminations meet 16th Oct.

keep enjoying

You too mate. True gent. The lumos (Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbitals?) will be fun. Canne wait, man! (what you'd say)

All hail the blue light

Very nice car in the flesh too!

The headlight condition is amazing, and looks the part with the facelift front indicators.

Glad you got home safe Tom, it seemed really busy on the m6 that night?!

sorry for the Tony, look in the Pancakes pictures, I have a few of your Supra..

That's a real nice looking Supe you've got there.

Real nice looking Supra, but then again I am rather fond of the stock look

Lovely car and a nice guy to go with it. Although he has a bit of a lead (pb) foot....

Glad you had a good day yesterday Tony.

Lovely car mate,

I wish you health to enjoy it.

Whoooosshhhhh.... Oh yes....

Tell us more about the pull over? Did they slap your wrist and let you off?

Hey Matt. I haven't checked this thread for a while lol.

Thanks for being a gent

They just told me and told me to tell everyone to "slow down". We accelerated away from an undercover Octavi going from 30 to 60. I just happened to be the guy behind. Nice Policeman. Could have been a lot worse

Hello BB. Great Supra, i think im going to pull my thumb out and get one! How much did it cost you out of interest ? The only one i have found that seems to be any good currently (white uk TT 6speed) is £17k mega low miles mind.

TBL.
