Jody T, that would be splendid, thanks for the offer. What sort of times/days would be good for you? It's quite a trek for me from work during the day but I could probably get away with it if I make up the hours. Alternatively, it'd have to be weekend/evening - Google Maps reckons 37 minutes from my office (about 45 from home) but that doesn't take traffic and my lack of a sense of direction into account. A bit of info I forgot to mention in my original post - one of the reasons I'm pushed more toward a TT is that the insurance is the same on an imported SZ as it is for a TT (slightly weird if you ask me).

Afternoon all, Afraid I'm another newbie after some welcoming attention. I'm desperate to get myself a Supra. I'm looking to buy one in the next couple of months (depending how long my resolve to save the money rather than just get a loan lasts) but I'm not sure whether to get an NA or TT. I think I want a TT and have been told the NA's a bit heavy and boring to drive (albeit by a guy who drives a 450bhp Skyline) but I've never been in either version so don't really know myself. I currently drive a 1.6 Astra (oh, she's a beast!) so I'm sure either one will be a bit of a step up, but I want as much speed as possible. Although, as long as I can blitz the 350Z and 2.7TT Audi S4 that 2 of my friends have just bought, I'll be happy. And if I can get the guy at work with an M3, that'd be nice too. My quandaries are as follows: - I'm 23 and been driving for less than 2 years so insurance is gunna kill my finances and I pretty much need a completely standard car - I'd rather not spend too much money but would like a TT (I can stretch to 6k reasonably comfortably but I'm reluctant to go much higher) - I'd prefer a UK car because insurance on a body-kitted and slightly modded car won't be much more than a standard J-Spec (and most J-Specs seem to have had something done to them, which I can't realistically insure), but can't really afford the UK purchase costs Imported SZs seem to be far more common than TTs from what I've seen, and cheaper for a standard car, but I'd quite like the top spec of a GZ - they just seem to be hard to find unmolested and pushing my price limit. Any advice would be gratefully received and any chance to go out in a Supra would be even more appreciated. The question is, will I be happy without those two beautiful turbos? I hate questions, they make doing things so much more complicated. Cheers for reading anyway and I look forward to properly joining the Supra community as an owner soon... hopefully very soon! My name's Dan and I currently live in Cheltenham by the way. Bye bye now!
