Completly wrong site i know lol but meh

Any of you horrible lot come across a "good" condition MR2 with service history for sale give me a shout, after a Mk2 (not the traditional Tetris shaped Mk1) with the T-Bar glass roof. N/A or Turbo, as long as its a runner with tax & test im all ears to start with.

This to replace the Nova Mike?

I was severly disapointed with the one I had, slow, didn't handle all that well, but the interior is massively comfortable and has a great driving position with the gear stick so high up.

Yep tis Si, just a weekend car mate, if I buy an N/A ill chop a Turbo motor into it regardless. N/A Rev3 or above is 170bhp+, turbo is about 240 i think, so you prolly had the gheyhat 150bhp version then lol

Hhhmmmmm, every other review & even on the owners club everyones said they renowned for there exceptional handling given a RWD motor :confused:

Might be my driving, the 318iS BMW i replaced it with was much better at the time.

one of my fave cars
the handling is only crap on the early rev 2s as they had crap suspension and brakes they changed them on the rev 3 and also the engine
i think the rev 2 has 120 bhp not 150 hence bein reli slowww and there was a newer rev 2 with 150 lol
but the handling comes from it bein rear engine rear wheel drive basically supercar setup lol

good look with finding one mate (Y)

jus so i dont look stupid the rev 3 g limited is 170 bhp yeh and the turbo is 240 butttt u have to run the turbo on super unleaded at least otherwise it fuks up the engine lol
