Guest Joti Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I was 27....actually that was when I got my peacker wet for the first time. I was also 9 when I got mine. Nice looking supra by the it looks mint and well looked after. Out of curiousity have you ever thought about haveing a TT Well yeah, but at the time when I bought it I had zero NCB and my insurance was £1,800. A TT was quoted insurance-wise at £2,800 so that kinda swung it! It was still a decent power hike from my previous car which was a 155bhp saloon.

That's very true and I suppose if you did changed to a TT you would also lose the Areo top unless you did an engine swap. Not saying you should it was just question in general as I know many NA go for TT after time and just wonderd what your thoughts were:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littler Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I was 9 when you bought that, does mean that you've had it since it the car was still quite young too! It's a really nice example! And welcome to the club! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammer Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Very nice, a big welcome, aero FTW. Get to Suprapod this year, you will love it. (although the chances of taking the lid off are limited - weather has not been on our side, but one day, oh, one day, us aero boys will shine ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
