  1. My girlfriend and I did actually pop over while Costco were fitting some tyres, but had a load of stuff happening in the morning so didn't get there until about 1:30. We were in the black Z3. Sorry we didn't say hi, we had no idea where or who you were but did have a good look around the car park. Anna now likes both the Subaru blue and the black, so the options keep opening up! I think I might have seen a load of you wander out... You all look quite young (I'm only 31 and you made me feel old!) perhaps I should be Volvo shopping instead...

    New Soon to be '86 / BRZ owner

    Afternoon all, I thought I'd better pop in and say hi. I'm currently shopping for a couple of GT86s / BRZs / one of each. My fiancee recently expressed interest in an orange auto to replace her Z3 and after driving a few I've decided I'd quite like one too. I've since convinced her that a white one is much cooler (sorry orange peeps). Shame I can't convince her to get her manual license! I've been into performance cars since I can remember really, recently I owned a Noble M12 and now have a BMW M3 CSL in the garage but my daily drive is a Ford Puma which is getting tired and old, so I'd like something a bit more fun and RWD to replace it for my daily commute and supermarket duties. I'm also missing a bit of the car community vibe, the CSL crowd are all about garages and value watching and they're just not a particularly friendly bunch, the Noble lot were fun but obviously I don't have that any more so hanging around with them just reminds me of the cool car I don't own any more. Anyway, I'm on the lookout for a blue, manual BRZ in the short term and already have a number of mods planned (wheels, UEL manifold, maybe a little bit of lowering... turbo, rocket bunny v3, different wheels, ah b*gger I'm going to need a new "daily") and a white GT86 auto for the OH, probably April / May next year when it's the right time to sell a Z3! Cheers! Chappers

    That's not the worst idea I've heard... Interesting, very interesting.

    Why a BRZ? Purely vanity reasons I'm afraid, I've always loved WR Blue Mica so the BRZ is the only option!

    OEM alloys with winter tyres

    Jevvy are you going to use the tyres or just the alloys? I was hoping to get a set for winter and these look perfect.
  8. Yes it's not a huge place and they always reserve a few tables for walk ins, so struggle with larger groups. If you all get there at 11:30 though, the car park should be pretty empty.
  9. We'll just come for a look round the car park, we've been there plenty of times, cheers though!
  10. Hello, I'm new to this game, so new in fact that I don't have one yet because I'm still shopping but it would be good to pop along for a chat if there are a few of you there! Not sure I'll be eating, I'm meant to be on a diet.
