JohnK Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 Like it says in the title, whats the furthest you have taken your supe away from home? Here's a couple of pics to get started, the first is in malmo with the bridge between Copenhagen (Denmark) and Malmo (Sweden) in the background. The second is outside Borgholm's slottsruin on Öland which is an island off the east coast of Sweden. Many a music vid has been shot there including one by Bon Jovi (I forget the track) and Roxette 's Listen to Your Heart. Im Currently in Stockholm but I doubt Ill get the chance to take any pics here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 Furthest I've been is from North London to Manchester, and that was a one off for a wedding. Unfortunatly the Sup very rarely comes out of its little house. Probably do about 30-40 miles a week, sometimes none at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Peace Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 That pic is excellent Rob I think its much more fun driving abroad than here, ya get lots of attention, everyone is nice to ya coz you got a Supra, and I found even Policemen to be friendly and more interested in the Car than giving ya a ticket... My favourite roads have to be the Mediterainian highway that links the Costas...and that fantastic stretch of autostrada in Italy that goes through all those tunnels and over Viaducts...its such a great feeling travelling through a tunnel and suddenly you are on a viaduct and Genoa is below you...really breathtaking...(that journey was in an astra though) I love the NIV between Madrid and the del Sol...its such a racetrack, and the Guardia Traffico are userly too lazy to bother you. I wanna go on holiday now just thinking about it...but cant afford to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hy-Performance Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 Just come back (two weeks ago) from holiday, drove Supra to Mallorca via, Paris, Toulouse, and Barcelona. On the way back did 1300 miles in one day!!!! Averaged 25mpg on the way down (80 MPH av), and 20mpg on the way back (at the above speed plus 20mpgh ) Very impressed with the Sup on the journey, and one last thing......the French are terrible drivers......the Spanish are a hell of a lot worse. Scary driving round Paris and Barcelona!!!! Lots of Sup Bumpers available guys Check out my store.... Regards Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmaw Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 1300 in one day?! That is pretty impressive! I drive round the US a lot and the most I have ever managed is 800. That is at their ridiculous 65 speed limit though; if you think the enforcing of our speed limit is draconian, don't even think about going out there, they will pull you over for doing 68 in a 65 zone (seen it happen), and many limits are still at 55. One good thing about the US is that you don't collect penalty points. So if you get a speeding fine, you pay it, then you're off and that's it. I heard that the vice president of Microsoft has over 200 speeding fines already, he just pays them then zooms off, presumably in something faster than a Supra! Our lass said YES to a trip to Italy later in the year - with me driving us there, can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hy-Performance Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 Yeah it is a lot I got home at 9am and almost fainted lol Never felt tired when i was driving though, i was so much fun Wish our speeding system was like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
