I would love to say dry weekends but it's not even that now, hoping to drive her more this year but I'm terrible of doing something to the car which puts it off the road for a while, I have not drove the supra since Oct, still not sorted my engine bay out yet lol

when i'm home i use the supra only! go through about 40quid a day in fuel he-he! have a 2001 vectra that i use for the beater and brought it to Germany to save fuel! only the problem is i hate the vectra and i mean HATE!!! miss my astra coupe turbo and only used a little bit more fuel than the vectra 1.8 16v that i have here!

Daily driver for me. I clock up around 350 miles a week and love it.
same here, & all of them effortless.

 

when you guys bought your supras, was it on the understanding they would be toys? or you realised how expensive & chose that way??

Was my daily driver until my job changed after christmas now I drive it up to 400 miles a week. My last Supra was daily driver as well. In my eyes cars are made to drive and I know from experiance its not always best to keep them couped up all the time. I suppose a weekend car is a good compromise though.

 

 

Wahoo just realisd I've made my 100 post (not bad in 6 years!!!!)

Mine was bought as a toy but it ended up getting used everyday & the lpg Alfa that was supposed to be my daily never moved. When it comes back as a single I don't know if the same will happen again as the Alfa was quite fun but has now been replaced with a Disco which won't even save fuel over the Aristo even when singled.
