I think I'm going to take the family (in the 406...) and a mate may be joining us in his R34. As long as it's dry we should be there, although I'm watching the F1 before I set off so might be there a little after 9.

Just got back, we peeled off after the cemetery stop. A great drive in more ways than one and good to catch up with a few people. I've got some photos and video from my phone, I'll post up later.

PM me your number JB? Wife, kids and I are at Pete's for tea but we're staying at the Travelodge so I'll be up for a drink at some point whilst Kate puts the nippers to bed.

It's 3 hours from me but me and two mates all have (almost ready) race MR2s and we're hoping to get together at Oulton sometime before the year is out as it's local to one of the three.

I have this exhaust, it's perfect for track days and saps no power (I had a pre- and post- exhaust change map check by Ryan, and as part of the change I had the wastegate piped back into the exhaust, too.) Hey Nic, didn't realise you were back in the UK! Maybe we'll meet on a track someday - got any details & photos of your MR2?

Give up then, if you don't have any camber it will make very limited difference regardless what else you put on the car; you'll never corner well and fast (not compared to a car with even just a degree or so of camber).

Flat - when cornering or when driving in a straight line? You can't have both. One will produce better handling, the other better tyre wear. As said above - it's always a compromise.

Sounds painful!

What's that little gizmo you've got where the ashtray usually sits?

Good to hear

No worries mate - sounds like it won't, but shout if anything changes. Excellent, get Abz over for when it arrives!

No worries mate, I'll PM you my number in case you need it...

I'm serious! I'd rather loan you my garage for a while then you sell it without having time to think about whether that's what you'd really want to do. My mates can take the p1ss even more then - I'd have two Supras that I don't drive.

You can't carry on trading under a dissolved company name - it's illegal if you carry on using "limited" (or the shortened version, "ltd"), which you are doing on your website and ebay at least. As I understand it, if the cars (and any money in a company bank account, property, etc) were owned by the company - and you didn't choose to dissolve the copmany and therefore didn't move the ownership before the company was dissolved - then they're bona vacantia i.e. not yours any more. If they weren't in the companies name, then who owned/owns them? http://www.bonavacantia.gov.uk/output/bvc1-assets-of-dissolved-companies-that-have-vested-in-the-crown-as-bona-vacantia-1.aspx

I'll put my MR2 out on the driveway, you stick the Supra at my house for a week/month/year under a nice posh cover and immobilise it. Then, when the time comes and you re-realise you've got the keys to one of the world's best Supras, come back and get it again and thank me that you didn't sell. It can keep my Supra company.

My wife (and kids) are coming. We will be in the 406 If you see me leaning out the passenger window it's because I'm taking photos, so pose!

Is that the reason you're thinking of selling, storage/parking? I saw this thread and thought you had absolutely lost your mind, after all the effort YOU have personally put into invested in making your dream Supra... don't make any decision about that car lightly Ibrar!!

A few of us are staying in the Travelodge.

I assume this isn't the same Paul Brown Cars, as it was dissolved earlier this year. http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk/6211f282d4fcb17ce91b86a21d3368ec/compdetails There is only one company called 'Paul Brown Cars' ever to have been incorporated in the UK. It's possible to trade without being a Limited Company, but I would have thought it unusual?

The Tanabe is a good exhaust; it seems to be very free-flowing but still good at getting rid of noise.

Can't confirm dates until we know when it's open to the public. I haven't checked yet, but they don't usually announce those until later in the year.

Come to think of it, my non-retrimmed factory-fitted Recaros are starting to show signs of use... where they have been used! I'm going to write to Toyota, it's just not good enough; they were brand new when they were brand new, once upon a time, several years ago. Seats needing a retrim - or even a re-retrim - having once been perfect... who have thought that such things could happen over time and through use. I wonder if a 3rd thread will be started on the matter, once this one is locked.
