Pete Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Yep - I felt like this too. Although I did something very stupid. Went for a walk up a local hill and wasn't sure half way up if I'd locked the Supra. Convinced myself I must have in auto mode. An hour later after reaching the top and coming back down I discover the car unlocked. Very lucky to still have my sub and road angel!

JohnA Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I went down to Brighton yesterday, some chav kids crossing the road starting gawping and "ahhhh"ing and gesturing, WTF this thing draws more attention than a Lambo. I *hate* it when it happens, subtle it ain't. The same cretins wouldn't think twice before keying the car if they found it parked somewhere. God, I miss the low-key looks of the Calibra. 4x4 too, lol... (ooooops I've just sinned, please forgive me:tomato: ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyb10supra Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I *hate* it when it happens, subtle it ain't. ha ha thats why you got it God, I miss the low-key looks of the Calibra. 4x4 too, lol... (ooooops I've just sinned, please forgive me:tomato: ) I had to nip out to a motor spares shop on Sat and two chavs in a completely maxed out tigra and another in a clio, completely stop what they are doing and start staring as I pul in, then come over as I flip open the bonnet, and say....you dont mind if we come over and drewl over your car they were actually nice guys though for once!!

Pig Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Sunday drives are great went out for one myself, however it was 4.30am and i got pulled for speeding! At 4.30! what the hell were you doing up at that time? How fast were you going? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 You've bought the wrong car mate. Tell me about it:whistle: I love the smoothness of the 6 cyl, the way it accelerates if you floor it at 100 (20psi and lots of water/methanol injection have transformed it big time) The brakes are kickass too, handling at high speeds is excellent with the Billies. However, it sucks at fuel efficiency, and it attracts WAY too much attention for my liking. If you can't park it, you can't really use it, so that puts a damper on things - for me at least.

DamanC Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 At 4.30! what the hell were you doing up at that time? How fast were you going? I planned on going out at that time, cold air, no traffic etc etc, i was going the speed limit, however the feds didnt think so http://www.talkgold.com/forum/images/smilies/innocent.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 If you can't park it, you can't really use it, so that puts a damper on things - for me at least. I agree. I'm totally paranoid about parking and take the misses ZR into town, out at night etc. Shame we can't enjoy our toys fully in this day and age.
