I was loaned a Supra 3.0 when my Celica was in dock and, while it was magic away from the lights, it was hopeless in the corners!! Celica every time for Toyota sporty driving!! :-D

I drove a Ford Transit Sport in London, no body kit on it so looked like a standard Transit. When you booted it from the lights the looks on people's faces was hilarious. I love a wolf in sheep's clothing.
