Hi all,

After two years ownership I am reluctantly selling up. I am the first owner from import. The car has been lovingly looked after since I purchased it and the only modification that I have made was to replace the Walnut finish that it arrived with. Mechanically the car is excellent. Each service has been performed by Supra specialists and after the last service only a couple of things may need attention at the next one in January.

The front right original suspension has a small leak and may need replacing and the lights may need new covers due to ageing.

The ICE is in Japanese but fairly straightforward. All touch screen + DVD facility although I've never tried it. There is also a Kenwood auto changer in the back which I have never used.

My reason for selling is work related. In the time that I've had it I've only put on 10K miles. the car arrived with 86K km on the clock. I'm in no rush to sell but if the offer is near the asking price of £3550 I would be interested. I'm sure I've missed things out so feel free to ask.

Thanks.

in the process of buying a house, the GF is eying up the supra and thinking 'stamp duty money' No way says I. Can't commute in that says she. Alternative being; supe stays, economical yet subtley classy cheap run about needed. Trawled autotrader for a car below 3K but no real joy + not sure what's reliable etc. Any suggestions from the ever helpful community here???

Mx-5, a colleague has an MGF and spends a good deal of his time walking to the shops, not driving. (hasnt started in ages, head gasket)

A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari in Africa, taking her faithful aged poodle named Cuddles, along for the company.

One day the poodle starts chasing butterflies and before long, Cuddles discovers that he's lost.. Wandering about, he notices a leopard heading

rapidly in his direction with the intention of having lunch.

The old poodle thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in deep doo-doo now!" Noticing some bones on the ground close by, he immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat. Just as the leopard is about to leap the old poodle exclaims loudly, "Boy, that was one delicious leopard! I wonder if there are any more around here?"

Hearing this, the young leopard halts his attack in mid-strike, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees. "Whew!", says the leopard, "That was close! That old poodle nearly had me!"

Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for

protection from the leopard. So off he goes, but the old poodle sees him heading after the leopard with great speed, and figures that something must be up. The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard.

The young leopard is furious at being made a fool of and says, "Here, monkey, hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that conniving canine!

Now, the old poodle sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back and thinks, "What am I going to do now?", but instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet, and just when they get close enough to hear, the old poodle says.

"Where's that damn monkey? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another leopard!

Moral of this story....

Don't mess with old farts...age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill! Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience.

Well, had a fantastic day and the supe looked good too! Used good ole' Maguires in the end and ALOT of elbow grease My mate nearly passed out in the process toooooooo hot.

I got one very similar from E-bay, Dead impressed, looks a whole lot better than the wood effect the car comes with! how much jurgen?

it looks all formal... like it's wearing a Tux or something...

If we've got to appaently so has the car. (not allowed to take jackets off in the reception!

What, like this?

Yep Thats what we're going for!

lol!

 

This stuff is good for getting silver cars to shiiiiiine (my Supe's silver). See here for a quick review & photos showing a bit of the effect. For maximum effect;

 

wash it

dry it

clay bar it

polish it

then use that stuff ^^

 

Sweet! can you get it anywhere? clay bar?

Hey if anyone is about in remenham near Henley we could get a mini convoy going (his missus would just love that:D )

just don't take a picture of it all 'ed up like that... it's just wrong..

lol, Its his Idea! If I get it done ok there is definately gonna be a picture!

ive never used meguires stuff although i dont doubt its highly rated. ive always used autoglym does the job great for me.

I wash it with auto glym and wax/polish with maguires. I was just wondering if there was anything more dazling

hello!

What colours your supe? mines black and i use autoglym super resin polish, and then after polishing apply extra gloss protection. that gives it a nice deep shine.

its silver and that stuff sounds good. I usually use maguires.

under the bonnet? it wont get caught in anything? I was thinking wrap it under the reg' plate.

I always prefere a good dark rum and a splash of coke.....mmmm rum

A good mate of mine is getting hitched at the weekend and my silver supe is carrying him to the church! Anyone got any ideas of where to attach ribbon or any info on how to make metallic truly shine? a guy at work mentioned something about mul or mol or some kind of stuff that is used on all sorts of things. anyone heard of it????

do you want to know something ?

you know that Eddie Stobart trucks all have girls names on them? well there was a special edition truck (only one) that was named Optimus Prime in which my Dad drives !

Just thought I'd mention it.

I used to go out with a girl called Melanie and one of those trucks has her name on it because the owner is an uncle or something.
