Style Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 (edited) Hi guys, Decided it was time to move up in the world after 2 years of owning a Focus. Was looking into going Jap, mainly a 200sx but kept coming across rusty shells and high mileage bin jobs. So I thought I'd have a look at Supras and fell in love with the very first one I looked at and decided to buy it! N/A, 6spd, grey with 66k and a few mods. Currently waiting on the DVLA to supply the current owner with a new V5 with the original reg details on it since he's retaining his personal plate. So I won't be able to pick it up/get pics until that happens The DVLA site says up to 3 weeks but does anyone know how long realistically it takes for the papers to come through? I've heard it usually comes through quicker. EDIT: Hopefully this pic from the PH ad works: Cheers, and here's a few snaps of what I used to drive. Looking forward to getting to know a few new guys from the area! Edited August 11, 2011 by Style (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Welcome along mate, I recognise that photo, looks like a clean car. There are a couple of members around tayside, where abouts are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Style Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 Thanks mate. The cars in the Bathgate area just now and the guys had it for a good few years. Probably seen a good few shows around about you. Couldn't believe how clean it was for a 15 year old car! I'm just outside Dundee in Monifieth. I think theres a red TT nearby but it's for sale. Couple more around the city centre but no idea if they're members or not. Soon find out I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Style Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 Thanks lads. Just got a phone call there from the current owner who was told to expect the new V5 Tuesday-ish. Which means I'll probably be able to go through on the Friday to get it. So another painful, carless week to wait yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Style Posted August 13, 2011 Author Share Posted August 13, 2011 Yeah looks like I got my car maybe a few weeks too late otherwise I could've maybe come along! But definitely worth the trip another time, hopefully next year Don't suppose anyone will want a trip down to Knockhill for the BDC next week? The week after Suprapod so I'm guessing everyone will be pretty skint from the petrol etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
