  1. It looks like a deluxe mobility scooter Lx
  2. that has to be the most useless car accessory I've seen. Maybe the fact that it's made in China explains why it looks like it shrank in the wash. Some interesting website you use Michael L
  3. If you do a search on the forum there are quite a few threads on insurance. You could try the club insurers, Sky for a start. I'm sure others will be along with more suggestions shortly Jspec's are usually more than UK, I believe as they are techinicaly 'Grey' imports. Some TT's are going at ridiculous prices now you may get lucky at £5,000 if you keep your eyes open Lx
  4. Watch you don't bite his hand off Ash!!! :D Lxx
  5. Somebody lock him up before the next NW meet lol Lx
  6. Hey Ady Bad news on the delay. Sorry for you mate. One of my friends has a GTO with, I believe, these fitted and they look incredibly like leather and were an excellent fit. Wayne (Supradibbs) did mine and they are an excellent job. If you have any probs with your supplier I can give you details and pics of mine for reference, just PM me Lxx
  7. Ady Is there an official 'age' that a car has to be in order for it to become a 'Classic'??? L
  8. How much are you looking to spend? That would determine whether you can afford an NA or TT L
  9. Most mesh is thin gauge aluminium and flexesm not to mention perishing relatively quickly, so you would either need a paint that can flex with the metal or a plastic coated type. Halfrauds do a black plastic mesh which is reasonably strong and should repel flying stones. But it does look what it is...plastic and not particularly good quality Lx
  10. what a shallow post. Does it matter? If the majority said 40 would you think "id better dump her for a younger model then?" Who are you trying to keep up with???? L
  11. Wow!! thats a big appetite you have there Michael Lx
  12. Who/what is 'PERKINS'??? Are you a trader then, as your advertising your wares??? paint shop?? since your down as a club member only L
  13. cheers, I'll check when I can escape from work and update Adam - No probs hun Lx

    Stolen Supra

    Hi Paul Very relieved for you hun, delighted too. Your a very lucky chap, hope you get that alarm sorted ASAP Linda xx
  15. Then there's all the swearing on the forum My gran said "swearing is a sign of ignorance" Would this account for some of the abusive behaviour of our youths who cannot find the correct vocabulary/garmmar to express anger or frustration? Some members on here are equally guilty!! L
  16. Literacy standards have been declining for several years, as is mentioned by the media on a regular basis. However, I don't believe that schools should 'carry the can' for the entirety of this problem. As a very young child I was encouraged to read by my parents and was able to do so before starting infant school. I was quite a 'book worm' and learn't much of my spelling and grammer from books. Time precludes me from sitting down to read these days whereas the internet is quicker. Sadly, websites are not proof read and any errors are picked up unknowingly by some and further exacerbated by the 'readers' own errors. Time is a major factor too, in my view. Our lifestyles are fast and often frenetic and convenience is paramount; it is far quicker to communicate in an abreviated form. We are also increasingly lazy these days self regulating our own output is neither time efficient or deemed necessary in many situations. As for this forum, well, I should'nt be on here in the day and therefore have one eye on my PC and the other on my bosses door so I end up scrawling a few hasty words and...erm.. sometimes in txt speak Besides, few threads are worthy of a protracted response A couple of words or a brief sentance before racing to the next thread is adequate Linda x

    daft joke

    :rlol: MINT!!!! love the punch line!!! nice one mate Lxx
  18. Just carry skinny people in the back or weigh them before they climb in lol whats with the guys beige fixation??? did he charge you extra for the coke can and holder btw, if you dont want the coke can holder and it fits a supra..... Lxx
  19. slightly off topic..... just been having a 'proper' look at H's avtar and its cracking me up :respekt: Why dont you alternate between one venue further south towards manchester one month and another further north the next, then everyone gets a fair crack. Even though peeps only get to meet once every couple of months at least its fair?? tbh, most 'regions' covered by our club have the same problems. I know Midlands stretches over a wide east/west swathe so if your in a far corner its difficult But then it depends how much you want to meet up with your supra mates Linda xx
  20. WOW!!! looking at this thread is like being faced with the ultimate box of chocolates Makes me sooo proud to be a supra owner Linda xx
  21. Practical??? Space??? In theory its a 4 seat coupe, in reality any rear passengers would have to be either under 3 years old or not have legs The boot is quite wide but woefully shallow, Martin's right about cheese slices! If your load is deeper than a lunch box you'll obstruct your view out the back but the rear seat folds down. With some carefully thought out packing its not too bad. Many of us camp at shows and can fit in a decent sized tent. Never tried a buggy myself, not had the need Can you take a buggy and baby seat with you when you look at your first supra then you can work it out early on.... ...or buy a meriva Lx
  22. Not bad Could have been worse, you could have bought a Skoda Octavia Diesel enjoy hun Lxx
  23. I've been looking to do this for a while now too, thanks for the link Jody Linda x
