A big day for Rodney and the B-Team today. They've not met any real leaders too date, just the likes of the EU swamp creatures and other low hanging fruit so this should come as a shock to them. I appreciate the fact that we've been standing in the US' shadow for the last 50-years but I never thought the day would come when we needed to prey for the POTUS to help give the UK a political lifeline. Chagos, Apple Corp, free speech, Ukraine backstop, military spending, sanctions and tariffs etc, all good subjects for the table. I'm sure Trump will tell Comrade Rodney just how it's going to be. What a shocking state of affairs!

Yep, exactly that, sir.

I genuinely thought you were referring to our limp labour government when you made reference to 'entire economy and working class into the tarmac' ; not sure if you've noticed much recently but Comrade Starmer doesn't give a flying feck about the British working class these days, if ever! I was born and bred in a pit village in County Durham and I can safely say that the red wall in our area is rapidly changing to a Reform colour because the northern folk feel betrayed and let down by Starmer's far-left-leaning policies and his governments morally corrupt MO to running this once fine country. Also, you made reference to POTUS and Ukraine but I have to point out that the poorly thought out actions by this UK Plc over the conflict has shown just how small and insignificant our geo-political reach is now in terms of us influencing other countries and our ability to initiate any form of military intervention(*). If Trump continues to exit Europe as I expect he will do then his actions will leave behind a very politically weak UK because we'll have no 'big buddy' behind us for when things go tit's-up. The question for us all is whether the UK can survive four more years of this morally corrupt government. (*) Just my own personal thoughts as a former army officer with considerable experience in British military interventions.

Day32: Is anyone else utterly amazed by the monumental levels of positive change made by the Trump-Vance Administration in his/their first few weeks of office? It's a pleasure and a joy to watch this Trump team dismantle 'the system' piece by piece; this includes the political destruction of the miserable european and British political feckwits who have been content to destroy our once great democracies. Runaway Rodeny(*) is off to the WH next Thursday to get fired by Trump so I'd love to be a fly on those walls. Well done Trumpy and JD. (*) Reference to Harmer after he fled the farmers the other day. P. S. It just goes to show that great things can happen with good strong leadership.

Happy Trump Day guys The missus and I are taking the day off to celebrate his inauguration. I'm just hoping that he'll give Queer Harmer and our incumbent British-hating muppet government a slap or three. Have a good one, Andrew

Merry Christmas all, Still around and still have the Supra. Like many of you I look at the forum every week but never post; must try harder. Take care everyone and have a safe 2025. Andrew

A bit of a shocker but times must be tough.

Nice garage setups, very impressive. Peter, love the car mate. It looks better every time you post a new pic. All the best, Andrew

Just a bit of fun, guys. All votes are anonymous. All the best, Andrew

@StyleSome proper wild cars being sold in Japan at the moment. £64,000 (plus import costs) will get you this wide-bodied beast.

That explains it sir but it shows how the insurance companies see our cars these days. In the case of the OP he'll be living with even more challenging circumstances due to the nature of NI insurance parameters. Funny example: I went to Hagerty last year but they would only insure the Supra for garage storage but not for road use........crazy times!

I've tried to like the new Supra, honest I have, but I just can't bring myself to accept it as a Supra........sorry guys. It seems a lovely car with a good German engineering pedigree but it just doesn't fire the old rockets. I love the rear of the car, nice shape and aero but the sides and the front let it down IMO. Might be a good investment for the future with so few having been sold.

Interesting ref your mention of Safely Insured. I tried them last July and they said no to any Supra due to age, parts availability and the increasing value of our cars. Adrian Flux would accept my Supe though.

That's truly a fantastic looking Supra. Nice one Peter ;-) Andrew

Poor Supie, this is the engine bay about 17-years ago when it had a Chargespeed bonnet fitted. .......and where has the time gone come to think of it!! It may be looking a bit sad for itself at the moment but I think the OP is the right man for the renovation job. Good luck, Andrew P S. Lots of top quality bling thanks to the really fine work of Colin and his magic fingers.
