Surprise surprise, ended up with this:


But has a slight twist. Colour of Mica Orange was thought only to be Japanese market, but this is a UK rev5 NA (t-bar). Possibly one of only three this colour in the UK...yeah not yellow, but I do like a bit of variety now and again.


65K miles and not a spot of rust. How is it that a car the same age (well a year older!) as my GTR can be so much cleaner with 10K more miles on!! Do GTRs rust more?
Nice example Toni.

Hate to say though, gtr's do.

Cause its a Toyota, the cars are built better.

Remember my mates supra, where we have patches of that bitumen based rubber sealer on the underside of the gtr's, the supra was covered one end to the other, completely.

Seems no expense spared with Toyota's.

Although, that stuff is heavy in quantity.
