Spunkmeyer Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Seriously I thought this was an ok idea! How far/long have you gone for your Supra (Jollies like DB don't count) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I think he's hinting at the 12hr journey... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_bandido Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I did Newquay and back for an is200, starting in Northampton. Though that was more buying an is200 in Newquay as I wanted an excuse for a weekend by the beach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spunkmeyer Posted August 15, 2016 Author Share Posted August 15, 2016 (edited) I wasn't lucky enough to make a weekend of it as we had fixed plans smack in the middle. As Plan C was a stop over - hotel, take the wife out for a nice meal etc [emoji12] but she wasn't having any of it. Plan D was stop over - hotel, I'll take anyone out for a meal that was lying on the st at midnight.... But just went with Plan E to man up and get it over with ️[emoji594] I think it was 776 miles Edited August 15, 2016 by Spunkmeyer (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_bandido Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 That's a bloody good effort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2 MSW Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Thats a serious effort that and you got a lot further in 12 hours than we did in 15hours going to lemans this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoostJunky86 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I did Gatwick to York and back in a day to collect mine. Including a 2-3hr delay on the M25 lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I did a 11hrs run from Shrewsbury to Aachen but that did include a 45 minute alternative wheels run on the Channel Tunnel so it could be cheating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 473 miles each way (Aberdeen - Kettering) for my first Supra. 244 miles each way (Aberdeen - Cramlington) for my current Supra. I think the worst one was 504 miles each way (Aberdeen - Bristol) in one day to pick up a Honda SMX while I had a broken ankle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spunkmeyer Posted August 15, 2016 Author Share Posted August 15, 2016 All good efforts - this wasn't for a car though, just supra parts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did similar in my Supra last year, Nurburgring to south of Barcelona in one go. I can only imagine what hell that must have been in a van!

ShawnPreece Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I used to travel 535 miles (9 hours) each way from Hereford to Macduff (about an hour above Aberdeen) quite regular... admittedly I only done it in the Supra once though the rest was in my Lancer and my Civic (cheap dailys lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShawnPreece Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Wow just wow I used to set off at about 11pm/midnight both ways to get the majority of the journey done during the night. Last thing you want on a 535 mile journey is to sit in traffic lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
