Looks like a really nice car Julian, really pleased for you.

The first journey in your new Supra is always (hopefully) such a memorable experience, although seven years ago I still remember mine fondly and like an old softy I still have the first petrol fill up receipt

Wishing you many happy years of Supra ownership Julian, don't be a stranger here on MSOC.

My sister has a house in the south, I can feel a trip coming on !
Is this open to gate crashers ?

My only downside is lack of holiday. Weekend only for me, unless I can go unpaid.
Anyway's back on topic...

We drove to Barcelona in July06, and came back over the Millau bridge.

Its definately a good run, - two days there and two days back ideally. Thats a lot of fuel in a Supra, Dunk!

You can do it one stint though - but I gave up runs like that years ago.

I went to Perpignon last year - and am ashamed to say I flew !

The biggest draw back is the fuel bill but were only here for a good time not a long one


I reckon i can get 25 mpg if i behave so i'll go do some maths
