  1. what do you call cheap? whats your budget?
  2. lovely car mate i was in a dilemma whether to get one of these or a supra, love the aggresive look of the front but i couldnt live with the rear,think it lets the rest of the car down, thats the main reason i choose the supra. Great car though mate love the colour and not a bad spec! have fun
  3. The only limited edition one that i know of was the 15th annivesary one(correct me if im wrong), i think it was just a USA model and im not sure it included 360hp as standard but im sure someone on here will have knoweldege of it
  4. wouldnt the us ones be illegal here, as the beams would surely point the wrong way?
  5. it does say if it had enough power, so i would assume it cannot

    Track car?

    True but even the n/a is pretty fast most will see at least 160, not sure on the 0-60 but i imagine its not slow either. Wonder how easy it is to extract decent power out the n/a? id imagine they are highly tuned as stock

    Heya

    The only advantage of getting an auto is the fact they are generally cheaper, i driven both a 5 speed and 6 speed manual and think they are great. For me auto was not an option, i dont like the fact of the car changing gear for me! i like being able to change gear myself
  8. like the way they put this in the advert, "the vehicle has the following specification: Rack and Pinion Steering" surely the car has better and more interesting points!
  9. i think its because the USA are paid lower over there and generally get less holidays etc. so as a nation they rely on service tips, i personally dont agree with tips, i dont get them in my job why should others?
  10. Wow what a car shame about the price nice competitor for the veyron, an outragerous amount of hp! http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/www/bikes/advert.action?R=200814306773935

    have you tried bell and elephant, these are under the same group as admiral but offer different prices which is odd.

    true its really hard to get insurance for younger people, was a lot easier when i turned 21 though.

    what about an old 911, seen a few under 10k on autotrader from memory. bet they would be a whole lot of fun

    impossible to say but sods law generally always kicks in in situations like this, have a crash and your gonna have a much bigger repair bill. To be honest no insurance is ideal, they all try and get out of paying if they can its best not to give them a reason to avoid it. Fully comp goes without saying really, id put money on that very few members would want to put TPFT and their supra.

    wow thats a mega quote, i would perosnally never insure any car TPFT let alone a supra yuo got balls!. for comparison my insurance is around 800 and thats on a tt6 with 1 years ncb and fully comp,
  16. lol sounds good to me this could turn out to be quite costly for the lad
  17. fair enough you believe that your car is faster than it was ever designed, perhaps its magic
  18. must be something wrong with your speedo or something mate as their is no way a car of this age will be faster than what it waswhen it rolled out the factory unless modified in some way. My sz-r does it in around 6.5-6.9 at an estimate and thats not using gps or other gizmos.
  19. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umpW2sWu_ao presume you mean this one i take it this is in km's?
  20. whats the link for the you tube vid, quite interested to see this as my sz-r wouldnt get near that
  21. i have had this with both my supra's but never bothered to fix it, if its really bothering you, use a strong adhesive like araldite this stuff is really strong and should hold that no problem
  22. Scooby n/a maybe but i doubt you would stand a chance against a turbo varient(unless a terrible driver) and we can all quote 0-60 figures and top speeds but at the end of the day it comes down to a whole lot more than just that. Supra n/a or turbo would be my choice over a calibra, its day has been and gone and it shows it age well
  23. hi mate could this be the one ? http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Adverts/Question536933.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDOk5CW_c7o&hl=en
  24. sorry cant be a help but this advert drove me crazy for a while it seemed to be on every 10minutes, and the bloke who said the title had a really annoying voice after the 50th time of seeing it lol.
  25. Think your right mate, was talking to mate tonight about it actually apparently 300bhp is fairly easy to achieve i was suprised to say the least, still couldnt get past the fact it looks like a cavalier but each to their own i guess
