SPG Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 (edited) :)Hi everyone, so the day has come to pick up my new Supra and i must say that i am rather excited. I just sold my Silver NA-TT which was always going to be a project style car, but if im honest i was never really a fan of the 199 Silver paint-job but still fancied having a go at sorting out the issue's that the previous owner was unable to address. Anyway less of the boring stuff and more of the details, I will be travelling local to collect the car : http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4ADFA_enGB464GB465&q=BASINGSTOKE+TO+DUNBAR . Dont worry i will be flying down to Southampton then driving back from there . Here is the Supra in question : http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?275439-Facelift-(P-reg)-SZ-R-White-Supra-6-Speed-Manual-£3750-ono I know there were many interested parties in this Sup due to the Box, but for the meanwhile the box will be sitting putt, with a few nice aestetic alterations (OEM Spats etc). Flying out at 2.20pm and im literally about to pee my pants in excitment. will update with a few pics via my Pie-phone Edited September 20, 2012 by SPG (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOGIE Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Ive just had the pleasure of seeing this in the metal, Awesome car. Sunny was good enough to give me a shot and it feels and drives like its new. I now need a G161 gearbox in my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPG Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 Good to see you today Logie, and thanks for the help with the lights. I am well impressed with her and the V161 definately spanks the W58 in every way. Such a joy to drive, now who wants some photographic evidence?
