Hi all fellow forum users,
Just a quick introduction.
I'm from West London and a Newbie to the MKIII Supra scene.
I've loved these cars since my Dad owned one back in 93. It was an 89 turbo version (his pride and joy).....and now I understand why.
My business partner (mate of mine) is just about to rent a house in Chudleigh in Devon. While the owner was showing him around the garage he saw the Supra and the owner happened to mention that he was going to sell it as he couldn't afford to take it with him to France.........so he bought it and has offered it to me..... :)
I've known for 2 months but haven't even seen a picture of her yet....but tomorrow he's moving and I'm helping.....so I'll see her tomorrow...Whey-Hey!!!
Definitely taking my camera, will get some pics up soon.
Thanks for taking the time and reading my post.......I will definitely be bugging you for advice……..lol……take care.

Welcome to the forum. You'll find loads of help on here to keep your car on the road and get it back on the road if you have any problems.
Are you keeping the car in Devon or bringing it back to London?

Look in the meets section, I want to set up a west london meet soon. I saw dangermouse yesterday and he's up for it aswell. Ace Cafe sounds like a plan though, might look at other locations too.
