  1. Soops now sold on that eBay they have now. To a Martin Su. that name rings a bell too.
  2. Sort of, I'm about 30Kg heavier now and sold my Supra for minimal money right before they started to appreciate again.
  3. Bit of a long shot. Made these a lonnnng lonng time ago and now, sans Soop, I suppose I don't want them anymore. Any interest here in buying them? They are on eBay too.
  4. I was with LV for 10 years but let the insurance lapse for 1 year while I was unemployed, on a promise from LV that they would carry on my my NCB if I renewed with them. 1 Year later they refused to re-insure me stating they did not insure Supras. One tele-handler told me they had never insured japanese imports ever, and still seemed sceptical when faced with their own records of my last 10 years. They even had the gall to ask why I was leaving them after being so loyal.
  5. If its permanant, how you going to get it through its MOT each year?
  6. Get under car, find rubber boot to clutch release lever, spray grease into the lube-openings in said boot. Enjoy the silence. Personal Jesus Barrel of a gun etc
  7. Are those foreign bodies in fact the bolts that hold on the IAC and TPS? I wonder if someone was working on those, lost the bolts and thought no more about them other than fitting replacements. I'd recheck the cylinders again just to be sure, and inside the whole intake plenum.
  8. I have L5 SUP for sale, in the For Sale threads, if anyone is interested.
  9. I've been saying that for ages. If its never the drivers fault, then Toyota should do a recall, they do seem rather handy with them these days. The other good one was that the white lines are slippy. Again, someone should tell the DoT about that, as they are kinda prolific.
  10. Ahhh, I remember when petrol was around a pound a litre, when the cost and the amount would match as the dials turned over. Back then you could leave your front door open, and kids could play in the woods safely, and Britain ruled 4/5ths of the world.
  11. When you say "both beams flash" surely you mean the dipped beam just stays as it is? i.e. on, if it flashed as well, you'd have two beams per headlight. Whereas some cars have a combined beam and dipped main light, with two filaments in one bulb, or that may be old fashioned now.
  12. Cheers it OK thanks. I can get a local garage to weld plate and get it MOT'd
  13. This 'ole 'ere, ringed in red, is longer on my car. It seems to have rusted through equally on both sides of the car, which is unusually coincident. The alternate garage I went to for MOT, after the first one started effing about over number plates, failed me on that. I think the result may be wrong, the holes are rusty and ragged edged, but the MOT guy thinks its a hole made by rust alone and being within 300mm of a structural point, he dun failed it.
  14. Wow. Ask and ye shall receive. Many thanks.
