After 2.5 years with the Supra which I have loved I have moved on. Predominantly driven by the fact that getting in and out of it when you are nearly 52 and 6 foot 5 puts quite a bit of pressure on your knees! Sticking with a straight 6 BMW engine but gone for an F82 M4 this time in Individual...

If it was me I would try resetting the system just to see if that makes any difference at all. Unlikely but for me would prove it is the idrive unit that is faulty. The BMW forums are your friend looks like you turn the engine on and hold volume button down for 70 seconds. I agree with BMWAF...

June 22 3.0 Pro bought new and main car just turned over 13000 miles. Just changed tyres for a full set of Continental Sport Contact 7's for the summer. Definitely not a garage queen.

Don't quote me but I think that depending on the wheel alignment system they are just called up from a database depending on your vehicle type.

I think you are relying on expertise Richard sets up race cars so really understands chassis set up. I can only talk for my experience I was clear that I wanted turn in to be a bit more responsive than standard as I like the car to react more sharply when applying lock. On springs I didn't...

I had my alignment done with Richard at Tuned Uk near Wrexham when I first got the car. I then went back this year and he fitted new MSS springs and put a fast road set-up on it. Supremely happy with the result. Really knowledgeable. Getting a Zero thrust angle as well makes a hell of a...

I know there are some special editions as well but looking at How Many Left - 3.0l Supra Pro Autos then less than 700 on the road if I am reading the numbers correctly. No wander you never see any and that has got to help residuals in the longer term. Exclusive club ?

I went one better and now insured through Sheila's Wheels ? as much cheaper than specialist insurers. Saved £500 on the Adrian Flux quote with the springs modification in the quote which based on other renewal quotes seems OK and from the start of the day and £2000 quotes - job done.

To save everyone time I rang my GR Toyota Garage. You can't get a Catloc for the Supra they are aimed at Prius mainly. Supra are counted as low risk. You can get your catalyst smart watered for free at Toyota though. That is my slightly tenuous insurance post over on catalyst related...

So this has been an interesting afternoon. I am looking to change the springs and put the MSS kit on my car. Aviva won't insure with that modification. So on a specialist insurance ring round Adrian Flux is the cheapest quote at just over £1200 for 50 year old, garaged, 9+ years ncb, 10000...

Welcome to the Northeast some great places to explore if you are new to the area. Would definitely not be me in McDonalds I can't remember the last time I went through a drive-thru.

I am in the Northeast too out near Tynemouth. So if you ever see a white Supra out and about it could be me. In the old days a trip up to Hartside Cafe near Alston was always a good meeting place with some really good driving roads up around there too. Destroyed by fire in 2018 so now just...

I have had 4 BMW's between my wife and I - 420d, 320ED, M2, X3 M40d. So possibly I like BMW's. The Supra was bought with the heart as much as the head. I can't deny having the B58 in it with the ZF box was helpful but I just really started to get into the look of the thing. Then it was a...

Enjoy it nothing like the excitement of getting to know a new car. I have done 400 miles so far and absolutely love the car. It does everything I wanted it to, really comfortable in Normal but really aggressive when I knock it into Sport Plus. Not driven it over 4000 revs yet or really...

Now run my 2022 car in sport plus for a UK spec car the engine setting definitely seems to be more noticeable burbles nothing outrageous which suits me and the throttle definitely feels sharper on pick up than in sport. That is my personal impression anyway but caveat only had car 7 days! and...

Agree there are no pops or burbles in mine which being a bit older now it is probably OK for flying discretely under the radar. My 2016 M2 was ridiculous for burbles with the M performance exhaust. The German engineers also left a hidden piece of software code for a "noisy exhaust mode" which...

Definitely does not work with the Supra - just states USB device not found and I have messed with all the expert settings around inputs for the head unit module. So will be sending mine back.

No a very slight burble on start up in sport individual mode which I have coded in as my default start mode. I have also coded sport plus in but not tried it yet as wanting to run the engine in first.

Still not set up after a week. I had a BMW X3 before this so might be a similar problem. Did you need to contact anyone or did Toyota Head Office sort the email issue out?

Got my Supra on Sunday and have sat nav but currently I have no Connected Services was told could take 48 hours to come on line. Dealing with my dealer but they believe they have enabled it as they received the code and as I say I do have basic sat navigation. Is there anything I can do or is...
