Feeling peckish yesterday evening I decided to take the Supra out of the garage for a spin into town to a specialist kebab shop.

 

There was a group of teenagers working on a big exhaust saxo where I parked up. Excuse me one said, that was a shock. What bhp does your car pump out? They were all very complimentary about the car and thought the 400bhp was cool even though I said it was low end by Supra standards. They couldn't believe the car was just about as old as them and that I'd owned it since pretty much they arrived on the scene.

 

So next time you meet some saxo crowd, expect a polite excuse me. I feel sorry for these mini petrol heads as when I was their age, big motor insurance was somehow affordable - just.

Glad to see I wasn't the only one who noticed this and thought it was a bit funny...

 

How exactly are they specialist?

 

English run and staffed? :D

 

Glad to see they weren't chumps, and I also feel for people that want to get into modding cars at a young age. I paid £1400 on my 1.2 Clio when I was 17, and I was only a named driver, with the policy in my mum's name!
