Josh Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Welcome. That's a long list of cars for someone so young. I'm 22 and only on my second car.

Luxluc Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Welcome to the forum mate. I got the first micro-UAV in my Company beginning of this year ... amazing how the technology has been pushed in these very small optronic sensors. Up to what range can you go with your big AV? Are you working for rescue services? Cheers Luc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be a Supra owner soon Gran Turismo 1 was the first time I got interested in Supras too it seems alot of cars but I got them all cheap by going to the auction's and keeping a close eye on Gumtree as I dont mind doing a bit of work providing its a good solid car and my dad has a marine engineering business so there's no shortage of tools I had some crazy fast supra's on GT but I think Supra's have a sort of powerful presence when you see a real one they're so big for a sports car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
