boostman Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I finally bought my first Supra today from Graham! Had a nice long drive back and enjoyed every minute! No big plans just fix the paint at some point and need to fix the toad alarm as it only locks the doors but you have to use the key to open it (the immobiliser bit works) Fortunately it's in such good condition it just needs small aesthetic things! Before anyone mentions it I am aware my name is boostman.....And I have an NA haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham1984 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) It was nice to meet you earlier and I'm glad you enjoyed the drive back. Watching you drive off in it was really weird. I've enjoyed owning that car on the whole, but after all the money I had sunk into it on decats/cat back/lights/maintenance etc and then what turned out to be a bad paint job ,I had sadly reached a limit due to debts that needed clearing once and for all. The car needed a new owner with a fresh interest in it which thankfully it now has. A bit of work cosmetically and the car will be back to looking how it did in some of the pictures below which is what it needs. I will certainly be sticking around on here as this forum is great for a laugh, and more importantly free technical advice; which it has in abundance. The central locking issue is the typical rain/freezing cold weather intermittent problem a lot of people have had on here. I'm 100% certain that as soon as it dries/warms up it will go back to normal until around late November Let me know how long the rear tyres last in the end. They should be the trip which has the highest number (was monitoring fuel on the other one) Here's a few pictures for your collection taken over the past few years.

Graham1984 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Also regarding the use for the black light, you may find yourself pregnant now after spending too much time in the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammer Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Welcome mate. Looks like a nice example you got. I am sure Graham looked after this spot on even though I've never seen it but as an N/A flag carrier Graham stood on top of the hill and (reluctantly) waved that flag with (embarrassment) pride.

Haha I'm sure you'll find something nice, and eventually get another supra! What about something like a Reliant Robin? Then you can rob a bank and escape the police and buy a TT!
