Re: All over for G164 CKV... didn't make the moon after all.

Any ideas anyone? After 13 years of ownership you'd be mad to move on and forget about your MR2. For a period of approx 10 years I've had 6 MR2s and sold my most recent one a few months ago. That said, I wouldn't have another, unless I could get my hands on G905APB again. I've had my Mercedes W123 ...

Re: Mr2 Crash Today

Yeah, bad news. My wife was stuck in the tailback for 2 hours, half way between the M25 and M40 J2. She emailed me this photo of a yellow car, whatever it was, as she passed the scene of the accident. Two cars and a lorry were involved in the crash. She didn't mention that an MR2 was involved. http:...

Re: New wheels fitted

I think they look fresh... No ones impressed with MR2,s these days other than enthusiasts. I think its all about introducing a bit individuality.. There not posy cars, no one thinks your driving a ferrari, its all about the pleasure of driving driving them.. I agree. Mk2 MR2s are too old to be cool...

Re: New wheels fitted

The colour doesn't offend but the style of wheel really dates the car. to be fair, the MR2 MK2 was introduced in 1989. It should look dated :thumleft: JDM retro Yo! :mrgreen: A Rev 3 on MR2 still looks relatively fresh, especially if fitted with a suitable set of wheels and clear indicators and rep...

Re: Aftermarket 4-2-1 for the NA?...

Best to have a custom one made. Would only cost circa £500 and you would gain as much as 0.5 BHP.

Re: Help identifying this revision NA mk2

That's a Rev2 car.

FE cars didn't have PAS.

FE were basic spec NAs with 119BHP rather than 158, which Rev 1 & 2 GTs had.

Re: Cheap little interior mod!

Be warned! This is how my exhaust turned out within a week of it being re-sprayed. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v214/technics1974/MR2%20Rev3%20Blue/mq4.jpg I suspect that the clear lacquer didn't get on with the exhaust temperature.

Re: mr2 for sale

Looks like the front bumper has had a re spray as its a different colour to the rest of the car, I'd pull that up first :wink: 99 out of a hundred MR2s have had the front bumper / nosecone painted at some point or other, so unless there is evidence of of significant crash damage and poor repair wor...

Re: 1,400 miles to go.... to the moon!

That's one small step for an MR2; one giant leap for Toyota.

Good luck Mr Armstrong and keep us posted.

Re: Cheap little interior mod!

just cheap crystal ones off ebay? They're the ones, but bought second hand, very cheap. One of the front corners is crystal, the other is Rev 4/5, all the rest, including the side repeaters are also crystal. They look ok but the originals generally fit better. I'll leave them as they are for now an...
