Wax and polish every week? There must be some lacquer that lasts, surely

Hi there. When you said "I m happy with the factory spec as I think the supra looks better the way it is", I thought fair play mate, someone who likes the classic looks and loves their car as Toyota intended, sleek and unmolested. And then your next sentence is: "I m really thinking of pimpin my car with the famous Top secret widebody kit" Now that was a surprise, but then it seems a lot of supra n/a owners dress their car up to make it look faster than it really is.

Don't get 19"s if you want decent handling

I don't think he is and as such I don't think he deserves a hard time.

Will be announced later today. Someone said John Cleese would be good (agreed!) but my vote is for Richard E Grant

3 points: 1 - That statement on the BBC site was by the Tory leader. It is his job to oppose, so of course he is going to say the VAT reduction was a failure. Empty words! He will say ANY initiative by the Labour party is a failure. He is a politician - geddit?! 2 - the 2.5% off VAT is not meant to help consumer spending!!! Do you really think the intention of the reduction was to knock 2.5% off the prices on stuff we buy in the shops?!?! Duh!!! The point was to increase cash flow for businesses dealing in thousands of pounds, not pennies! Think of the bigger picture, not just your own private bubble. 3 - much of Europe has VAT rates of OVER 20%. The grass is NOT always greener!

We put 2p coins into red phone boxes.

I dread to think what Harvard's Britain would do to me if I went 31 in a 30 zone.

Try the book, like i say, it changed my life (for the better)

I'm well into it, me! Same as my g/f. Still rubbish though despite the effort

YES I am getting the hang of that. How do you do your tatties?

There was a similar one in Middlesbrough recently where a joyrider nicked the ambulance at the scene of an accident and drove off in it, chased by police through streets and over parkland, completely wrecking the thing. I can only think that the people who do these kind of things have been 'brought up' with absolutely no thought for other people nor for their actions. Their lack of responsibility is astounding. It's a lack of discipline. Time to bring back borstal.

You can get it for 1p from Amazon (+p&p). Like I say it hs changed my life. Explains things in no-nonsense easy peasy style. Proper good grub too.

For the past 20 years the microwave did most of my cooking but now I have a book called 'Cooking for Blokes' and it has changed my life. Would anyone care to swap recipes

Has happened to me too. RLTC does kick in most of the time but it is not 100% reliable. I always drive as if it's not there, it's not something you can expect to rely on.

They can only give you a parking ticket or report you to the dvla. And if they report you, it will come back as PAID

That's a relief! I thought someone from toyota gt might have been doing the dirty for a moment then. There can't be that many supras of that colour about. Nice one rob, if you'd kept your eyes open (and had binoculars) you might have seen me parked up down a side street

I didn't catch more than a glimpse but it looked and sounded very similar I must say

true I will admit that

... this one looks to be acceptable. The owner appears to be a member of the Russian mafia

Thx for reminder, just done my tax online now

New Years day afternoon, heading up Thame High St. Could have been you Lui there can't be that many other light blue Supras around

Did they take your money?

I admit it, I am way out of date in many things. For instance, I prefer vinyl records to CDs and (god forbid) downloads, I have an old car (the Supra ) and I still record TV onto video. But after going round my mums for xmas, I saw her HDD/DVD recording thing which pauses live tv and has freeeview etc. I was amazed, especially as they are only £150 or so. Can anyone recommend one to a simple layman like me, or are they all pretty much the same?

Wilkommen. Yes you do need to get it painted as soon as possible!
