for sale Supra Twin Turbo BPU, 84,000 miles, Excellent Condition
Gordon F replied to a topic in Supra Classifieds
Lovely clean car but what on earth were you thinking about with the horrible bit of tin riveted to the rear bumper? -
Bob Keane?

Go down to Sainsbury's car park and if the car will do a do-nut you have an LSD. If the inside wheel just spins, you havent.
-
Did you take the driver to the small claims court for the return of your insurance excess? I had something similar happen recently in my other car and the other party (a haulage firm) still havent returned the accident form to their insurers after 2 months. Taking the driver personally to the small claims court may move this along nicely

How can it be Massa's fault? He goes when the team release him and the regulations state that the team is responsible for the safe release of the car. The McLaren drivers weren't penalised last year when the team got involved in the spying malarky because that also was a team isssue nothing to do with the drivers.

That looks more Storm Blue than RSP. I think he (Brian) came from Yarmouth and was a floor or carpet fitter as he was going to do me a quote for some stuff at home. There was an RSP one floating around Beccles for a while last year. Never got close enough to notice its nationality.

Getrag 6 speed boxes, whilst very strong, can also be stiff and notchy, features exaggerated by poor servicing timescales or using the wrong grade of gearbox oil. The stock clutch is too heavy (IMO) and the dual mass flywheel is prone to rattling. Which is why I bought an auto

And I used to fit them. Not the tickford ones, the Johnny Nic ones - they were much better
-
Wild stab in the dark, but the problem may be linked to some of this stuff that you had done. Who did the work?
-
I find this hard to believe
-
Any chance some one can post up a pic of a standard front bumper showing the fixing bolts. Thanks Gordon

How? The guy lined up as cannon fodder shows true fighting spirit and never gives up. Very nearly wins the fight. Sure, Khan will be destroyed by any half handy Mexican, but you cant doubt Gomez's courage tonight.
-
As soon as Khan gets beaten he will disappear as quickly off the radar as Audley Harrison did. Frank Warren will be scurrying round Beijing at the Olympics, looking for the next 'worldbeater'. The only world class fighters in the UK at the moment are Joe Calzaghe and Ricky Hatton.

Only just noticed this - hope you are being wined and dined at this very moment

Same place they came from in the last Turkey game.

Good choice that - I have a black one as well Just a quick word about bodykits - I have seen 4 or 5 Leons with the factory BTCC bodykit and the fit on the rear bumper was terrible on all of them, and all in the same place on the car. If you are thinking of the factory option have a look at one fitted before you commit. That aside, enjoy the car - they are great fun:)
-
Just out of interest, what colour did you go for?

I bought myself a new Leon Tdi FR last September and am very happy with it. Seriously quick little car and averages out around 42mpg. A few issues you may find: Dpf filter problems Dashboard rattles Front window seals Ride is very firm on 18'' wheels Bluetooth is not compatable with all phones. These are obviously the exception rather than the norm. I have had no problems at all with mine. Leather is also available from the factory. Thread here

As far as I can remember, you dont need them. The UK rear brakes will fit over the Jspec rear shields. I only ever remember cutting off the fronts when fitting the UK brakes to my GZ.

Edited - Forget it - didnt read the post properly.

Think you'll find John O'Shea is from the Republic. I'm sure he would be well impressed being called English You beat me to it!
-
John Terry may be 'Mr Chelsea' etc but there is no way he should have been up to take the 5th penalty. A dick waving exercise going tragically wrong
