My car turned 20 last month. 
So here are a few photos of it to celebrate. Old age hasn't slowed it down one bit. More like making it a more efficient hunter.

So what did you give it for its birthday?
On the transfer papers it says my car was made in 1985...i'm assuming EARLY 85 as its a "84" supra...not sure on the month
Is there anyway to find out for sure?

If you go into a Toyota dealership they will be able to tell you if you have the model numbers.

20 ? its just a pup !
My old ta22 - now in jeremy's hands turns a ripe age of 32 in november !
Its probably one of the oldest cars on this list and still spanking the hell out of new stuff
it will go for another 30 years too without much fuss - if its kept the way i had it - and jeremy's just making it better

Well its over 18 so that means that it is allowed to drink and smoke if it wants to! Hopefully it won't decide to take up smoking anytime soon
Mines plated 12-80 btw (note to self: Buy car younger than myself next time!)
Cheers

If you are a member of a cams afiliated car club and the car is older than 30 than you can put it on historic plates.Only catch is you can only drive to or from a repairer where the car is booked in for work or to or from any club event or event the club is invited to.
If its the right club then that should be every weekend or two on the average.
Maybe toymods should look into it.
