Hello everybody,

I have just found Pistonheads and didn't realise it was such a huge community so I thought I would register as this seems to be a like minded world of decent car minded people.

I am lucky enough to have two fairly decent cars which keep me busy.

My daily drive (1994 MKIV Supra)



and this has taken me 8 years and has different wheels than in the photo (1986 3.6 XJS)



I look forward to some good conversations on here as it seems a tidy place to be.

Welcome Jon, you are probably the closest PHer to me as I am just around the corner from you in Roborough village. Have also replied to your offer of an engine crane and will be in touch as some time for that.

Hi, does the car get driven by your partner sometimes ?

As I see one almost every morning in Saltash driven by a woman (attractive too smile )

Could be different car though.

Hi guys,

No the wife won't go near the Supra anymore, not sure why (I think the car maybe miss-behaved once when she was driving it wink

The Sup was a bit tetchy in the snow but as long as I stayed off the brakes and drove carefully she was ok. Hills were a bit of a bother though. Main problems were the idiots driving too fast too close and I spent all my time avoiding sliding cars eek thanks for all the comments hopefully will meet you all at some time driving out and about in Gods country

Hello chap. If that's Belliver in the background you're not too far away from me. Always had a soft spot for Supras - very nice.
