jude555 reacted to BristolLee in Hello! I've finally put my money where my mouth is!
Hi Everyone!
As my username would suggest, I'm Lee and I'm from Bristol!
After many years of lusting after the GT86/BRZ, I finally put a deposit down on a 2017 GT86 Pro last Friday, in GT86 Grey, with Fish Bros Toyota in Swindon. The car should hopefully be with me at the end of March.
While this will be my first GT86, my first brand new car infact, I have spent a fair amount of time in the car over the last few years. I have previously been fortunate enough to take the TMG CS-V3 race car up the hill at the Goodwood FoS in 2014. Competed against and with some of GT86BRZDC members (Keith- with his yellow monster) at the Toyota Sports Day in 2015, attend the meet with Tada-san, delivering the AE86 to it and finally was lucky enough to be asked to drive both the Castrol and Shelby cars in the recent #Drive film (shameless humblebrag video below!).

I currently drive a 2005 Celica T-Sport (that's the 190bhp version), which I've loved for the last almost 6 years, but the time is right to change it up and finally own, drive and possibly even modify one of my dream cars.
I do have one question. What are the benefits of Premium Membership (£12.50?)? Other than the 5bhp from the stickers
I'm looking forward to getting stuck in and involved with the club, and hopefully being the sort of club member that many of you have been to me at events in the past. Warm, friendly, chatty and most of all, game for a laugh!
Cheers
Lee

Here it is!

When I watch it, I see loads that I could have done better, but that is always the way. Happy enough as I've never done this before. Hopefully I will get a chance to do some more.
