  1. Very nice motor mate! Looked immaculate from the back, didn't check out the sides/front as I didn't want to look too dodgy! Is the place called Spara or something? I was in such a rush to get home I didn't look round. Saw one of those small Vauxhall / Lotus Elise things, (can't remember the name) parked next to a blue Scooby nearby too. I hope you've whooped 'em both!
  2. Black UK Spec parked in a place I went to today in Letchworth. Can't remember the name of the place, but there's a barrier. I was going to see Wilmott Dixon in there. Had a gold 'Nurburgring' sticker on the back. I only saw the back of the car, as it was parked, but it had UK lights so I'm guessing it was UK. Was very clean! Lovely looking
  3. Might have been me! Check my garage for pics to check I went from Gosport to Letchworth today, think I went up the M1 or A1, can't remember as I had Sat Nav on.
  4. I'm heading up the M27 & M3 in a minute. I'm going to beep my (gay) horn all the way past - hope that makes good TV too
  5. Any surveyors, estate agents etc training to become a home inspector for when the home condition reports become mandatory? I was thinking of training up and would be good to speak to someone who is, or is thinking about it.
  6. LOL! All it needs now is the clear indicators.....
  7. I'd stick a CF bonnet on it too (naturally!)
  8. Nothing wrong with the spoiler! I think it would affect the resale value of the car painting it green, as the target market would be considerably reduced. I can't imagine there would be a lot of people heading out to buy a modded green Supra. Could be totally wrong though, the colour could give it the competitive edge and be just what someone was looking for!
  9. One of the traders has started selling these recently, do a search and you should find it no problems. They look great

    Bastards!

    Gutted for you mate. Did the alarm scare them off before they took anything, or is it just plain jealousy? Were any other cars damaged that night in the area? Do you have any idea who might have done it? (local chavvies) If you did, you could trawl the streets on your Blade later tonight dealing rough justice. I'm not surprised the police have got loads of things to do on a sunday morning - catch the real criminals doing a couple of miles over the speed limit. I'm not even joking, they're always on the A27 Sunday mornings. What happened to 'Operation Cobra' anyway? I seem to remember in The News recently about how well the police were doing against car crime. Maybe a quick e-mail to them would shed some light on just how serious the police are actually taking car crime in the area.
  11. Not sure, I've just started it again no problem first time. I've never had any problems starting the car first time with just the key (whereas some other cars I've had to give it some pedal as well!) A dodgy solenoid would be a relief considering the other noises it's making! Incidentally, where should I be checking if that was the case?
  12. I drove it last night for about an hour, after not having driven it for around a week, but have left it longer before and that hasn't happened... I just went to go out for a quick drive, but there are some very funny noises occuring! One of the belts sounds very loose, neat the front of the engine bay, and there is a loud ticking nearer the back of the engine bay. Inside, there sounds like there's a moth flying around the dash, just above the right air-con fan (by keys) I can't see a thing as it's pitch black, so will have to have a more detailed check tomorrow. Gutted. The clock's reset as well...
  13. Just gone outside to warm the car. Turned the alarm on, then off, and then turned the key in the ignition. I did this twice. The first two times it made a funny sound (one loud click) like the battery was dead, then cut power instantly, even to the interior lights etc. The third time, the engine started first time no problems. What could it be? Straightaway I thought dead battery, but can't imagine why it would start a third time like that with no problems? Could it possibly be a problem with the starter motor? I'm not sure if I'm imagining it or not, but the alarm key fob seemed to be stuck in, so maybe it's that. Going to pop out for a drive now & see how it goes, anyone had similar problems?
  14. Yeah, mine had some guages cut into it which I wanted rid of. I've got an idea - you can have my glovebox & I'll have yours with the screen in!
  15. Parked in one of the car sales garages - BMW maybe? Saw it earlier today, around 11am while I was driving towards the M27
  16. I hadn't noticed the dildo's were missing! The bodywork & paint looks in good condition. Maybe a recent re-spray if it's been debadged? I only ask because I've been 'second chance offered' (even though I wasn't the second highest bidder) so might contact him tomorrow to see if he's serious. It's not too far away I guess...
  17. I'd guess no, as I bought one of Liam a while ago! Unless he's breaking more than one Supra
  18. Anyone see this on eBay when it was on there http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4573347795&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.co.uk%3A80%2Fws%2Fsearch%2FSaleSearch%3Fsofocus%3Dbs%26satitle%3D4573347795%26sacat%3D-1%2526catref%253DC5%26amp%253Bsspagename%3Dh%253Ah%253Aadvsearch%253AUk%26from%3DR7%26nojspr%3Dy%26pfid%3D0%26fsop%3D1%2526fsoo%253D1%26fcl%3D3%26frpp%3D50%26fvi%3D1 Thoughts and opinions? Looks like the drivers side headlight is misted, and the MOT is running out soon. Am I missing anything suspicious!?
  19. Realistically, I should never had any of my 3 Supras, but don't care, it's my only real vice!
  20. I saw a Sky News clkip earlier of an asian guy waving traffic on outside a petrol station, and in the background there was a black Supra! Anyone see it, or was it anyone from here?
