Guest Rays the roof Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Don't sell it! You will only regret it if you do. What yewar and mileage is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbm Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Can you not just buy a diesel runaround (in the region of £500 or whatever that is in Euros) and keep the Supe? I run two cars - it's cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Righto. Not being sexist (or racist) ..Why not just drive like an old woman? Behave yourself with that right foot etc...it's doable. Then treat yourself once or twice a week to a cheeky blast up and down your quaint old Irish cobbled streets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its more tax and insurance than anything else i spend about 80euro on petrol but thats because i do head off every weekend and its a 3 hour drive down and back.

imi Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Yeh... but it's a suuupraaaaa No issues with the fuel consumption of the supra, gives me 18mpg (in london) for a 560 bhp monster so not complaining. What I am not happy about is how we (drivers) are being sucked dry by these extortionate increase in fuel prices yet again (despite the price of oil being quite low).

Yes. I have only been driving since Friday, but I agree. I have yet to fill the tank (seller filled it for me) drove 80miles and have more than enough left for a while. Hopefully prices at the pumps will go down... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_b Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Why not just drive like an old woman? Then treat yourself once or twice a week to a cheeky blast up and down your quaint old Irish cobbled streets. That's how I drive mine. It gives passing motorists a shock when they see my twin-set and pearls! Just substitute "Irish" for "Basingstoke" . Shame to see you sell. But, you've gotta do what you've gotta do.

Guest Rays the roof Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Drive it like you stole it..... Except in residential areas. A 7 year old kid was killed by a car in a side street close to here. Car was only doing 22mph according to Police, but he still died a horrofic death shaking uncontrollably in his Mum's arms!! :( My worst nighmare for this to happen to one of my daughters or to me whilst driving.
