    always wanted a Supra but they stopped making them years ago so it's a lot of money for an old car. About 12k for a 12 year old car.
    I was thinking about a Civic Type R, about a 2003 / 4 model.

    yeah i must admit i was thinking that, cos they are basically going to feel old inside as well i.e. gearchange. Love the supra but they are getting on a bit :(

    Civic Type R's are wicked mate, ive been in one before and there a right laugh, the only thing i will say though is like the Clio 182 sport, it suffers from major wheels spin if u put ur foot down hard in first gear lol

    he bought it new and asked the garage how he should handle it as it's new and was told to just screw it.
