VELOCITY Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Weekends and evenings mainly, something to look forward to after work. Other than that my Jaguar XJR and my xantia TD!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoboblio Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 I used to drive it every day and leave it in the train station car park... until it got broken into, now I use my £150 Vauxhall Cav instead Much better not having to worry about warming it up / cooling it down / vandalism / theft etc Plus it really makes me appreciate the Supra a lot more.

eldudereno Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Mines a daily drive but I only do about 3 miles If that's a round trip, you're one lazy mf ! Use your legs, that's what they're for, you'll feel better for it. Given Darwins theory of evolution, do you reckon humans will no longer have legs in a few thousands years?

Scoboblio Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Never mind legs, judging by the standard of modern driving I'll be suprised if humans have brains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 My Supra is currently the only thing I own, so is used all the time. I live about 15 minute drive from my work, so do it in 5 mins in the supra (cows & tractors permitting). I tend to go back to Preston to see mates at the weekend so cover anything from 200 miles Friday to Sunday and I'm a drummer for a local metal band, so the Supra carries my kit & PA to rehearsals/gigs.

Paul -C- Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 It's my daily driver, but I work from home, so I only use it for going to the shops and the like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraLuigi Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 How do you get a drum kit in the supra! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 I play a Yamaha DTXpress electronic kit, so It's considerably smaller than an acoustic one, but even so, it only just fits and my amp has rubbed 2 little spots off the window tint. If you think that's a squeeze, I had a Smart car before that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 No, but at 70mpg, I wasn't complaining. If you ever want to piss one off though, pull in front of one on the motorway and drop to around 84mph - they have a top speed of 87 so have to keep lifting off the throttle 'cos they can't quite overtake you. Really used to annoy me as I would sit on the motorway with my foot flat to the floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really used to annoy me as I would sit on the motorway with my foot flat to the floor. No way, my dads one does 100!! It's not the turbo either. A few people have followed it and it gets to 100 pretty easily!! The speedo only goes up to 80 or something silly the needle looks like it's going to snap!

SkyJawa Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Hmmmm where is the optimax station Who cares Tesco 99 ron just down the road from work (and 2 optimax garages too! LOL) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Mine was a daily driver, I do 60 miles round trip, but since it has been off the road, I've got a company car.. so more than likely the missus will get the company car, and my beast will be the daily driver..

magicmatty Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Use mine daily, 100 mile round trip!!! But just invested in a small (COUGH - CR4P) van, to relieve the mileage off it a bit...Also does about 55 MPG which is a refreshing change after 20-25MPG...
