Not my cup of tea, but no matter what the brand, some people just love their cars, except Toyota's, how could anyone get exited with whitegoods, its always slightly sad for me when  i go to wrecking yards and see cars, that once belonged to a family, that went on holidays and took their kids to school, and now sit there left to rot away, waiting for the crusher, has anybody ever rescued a old car from the wreckers?, i considered buying back an old car i sold to them, until i thought about why i sold it to them in the first place, Colin.

I have my fathers MGA Twincam and all the history that goes with it, my mother was taken to the hospital to have me in the car, the car is my life butts thats hard to explain that to some people.

MGA twin cam- the only car more unreliable than an Alfa! He he he

I know how you feel- two of my (dec) Father's cars are still in the family (and one's an MG)

Try a few more Toyota's, then.

It's hard to imagine this type of passion and dedication to a cause with most modern cars of today???
I don't think anyone could argue that Toyota have been responsible for a few gems such as the Classic 2000GT !

The early Celicas had a certain charm, and the first front wheel drive Celica that had its suspension developed by Lotus was a very good car, i remember being in one at Winton, and it didn't put me too sleep like any Toyota would, Colin.

The MR2's are great fun. Small mid engined car agility and excitement with Toyota's durability (the driveshafts in the supercharged MR2's are chunky little MoFo's) and the 4AGE and supercharged 4AGZE engine are classic, solid engineering with material and build quality, to boot.
