Sorry for the above post! I'm not au fait with replying to comments obviously! So, to @TheangryEngineer I just wanted to say hello to a fellow Supra owner in Belfast! and by the looks of things we both got our cars from the same dealer! Mine took an age to deliver (10 months), but the...

Out for a drive for a coffee to Daft Eddy's on the shore of Strangford Lough. Nice quiet roads as everyone is at work!

After option 3, buy the Supra outright my next car will probably be a hearse!:D

Hi again!! Just to give you some idea of the covers I use and how it protects the car over the winter. The faint misting on the paint is very light condensation which can be lightly wiped off - the car has a GTechniq ceramic coating.

I know the feeling! The road in my development isn't gritted so it's like a bottle. That's assuming that I would even want to take it out on gritted roads in the first place and coat the underside in a layer of salt. Hence the all aluminium A2 gets the thankless task of being the daily...

Just a follow up to your query on battery life, as you know there's been a cold snap in the UK lately (probably nothing in comparison to the northern states of the US or Canada!) So, I haven't been out in the car for a fortnight and with low temperatures thought it was necessary to run the car...

Hope I've copied the right video, this is a comparison between three steering wheel locks ranging in price. Peace of mind is priceless though!

I use the Diskloc (size S)which has served me well in other cars - joy riders broke into one of my cars years ago and the car would have been gone but they couldn't get past this lock. Admittedly they did wreck the car door but the car wasn't stolen. I still use this same lock on one of my cars...

Oh, just to say that with outdoor covers a factor to consider is the risk of scratching the paint. So I always wash the car after a drive to avoid the cover rubbing on any dirt on the paint and scoring the car, usually a wheel decontamination, snow foam, two bucket wash and towel dry takes...

I have two cars that need to be exercised to avoid the battery draining!😀 The MR2 and the Supra, with the MR2 I've found that a fortnight is the limit before the alarm drains the battery, even less probably during the winter as the colder temperatures take their toll. I usually get the Supra...

I forgot to say - I also keep an Air Dry Classic car dehumidifier in the car to absorb moisture and keep the cabin free of condensation. You can get these from Halfords!

I use two covers from Classic Additions - the Super soft stretch indoor cover which has a soft fleecy lining and the their Ultimate outdoor cover on top. The reason for two being that the fleecy lining is kinder on the paint while the outdoor cover protects the car from the elements. They...

Thank you, I'll have to watch the film again with fresh eyes. My favourite musical artist would also be known for using the unreliable narrator shtick for his songs - Randy Newman.

I've always been puzzled about The Usual Suspects, Verbal Klimt is brought in for questioning and his recollection outlines the narrative of the film - so far, so good. But then when he leaves the police station the police detective realises that his story is based on articles in his office...

Thank you, a great film for New year's eve! Paul Newman, Tim Robbins, Jennifer Jason Leigh and Charles Durning are at the top of their game in this wonderful film. Gooooooo Muncie!!!!

Two lane blacktop Hudsucker Proxy The Player North by Northwest House of Games (any David Mamet film really)

The Supra got a run around the Mourne Mountains in Northern Ireland, stopping off at Spelga Dam. Making the most of the Indian summer, a nice sunny day late in the year. The car was attracting a lot of interest during a coffee stop in Newcastle, I was keeping a close eye on the car having...

Thank you for the information as there has been reports of a spate of car thefts of cars with keyless entry in Northern Ireland over the past 11 months. So many that the police suspect it is planned by a criminal gang. They recommend keeping keys away from boundary walls of your home (>6ft)...
