Re: anybody want a really quick rev3?

With the underside photos, does this car: - Have undertrays? - The front passenger side arch liner, is it intact - looks like it's missing? - Is there any rust on the bottom door edges (both sides?) I know these are finiky questions but I live the other side of the country and am in two minds about ...

Yet another awesome service from Kent Car Craft!

I left my car with the guys on Tuesday to have my exhaust system looked at, my gearbox oil changed and my rear brakes looked at due to them locking on. Although it was a bit here and there due to trying to source parts, and a number of hidden problems rearing their ugly head (due to the non-standard...

Kent Car Craft (again!)

So I put my car in to have it's tyres changed. As I could get them cheap from camskill they were happy to have them delivered and then they would fit them for £10 a wheel, which I thought was bloody good for full wheel balancing and fitting thumbs up Also did my ball joints which appear to be perfec...

Re: [Mk2] [NA] mr2 matt black

I presume you mean the thread that is not deleted and is in fact still on the OC.

Bravo sir. :clap:


P.S The last matt black car I saw looked just as bad as this one - but it was a Ford Capri... Make of that what you will. :thumleft:

Re: [Mk2] [NA] Why do I end up warping the discs again!

I know I'll be laughed off the forum but in my old Fiesta, if left to stand to long the rust would stop the brakes from working properly - made them really noise ect. It just need me to get the car up to speed and brake pretty hard a couple of times to free them up again... Could be something simila...

Re: is this an mr2 i spy?

It's clearly not an MR2 and it is a Nissan Skyline. Save the image to your computer and zoom in. There are circular lights, but they are not in the same style as the MR2. Also the rear of the car where the engine cover should be appears to be the rear glass going up to the roof. p.s sorry for being ...

Re: Owen @ Kent Car Craft - Highly recommended!

Yup, I concur, top people there. My car has recently developed a squeak that I'm worried about and it's not the alternator so my car will be heading their way once I get a bit of money towards the end of January. Sounds like the dreaded clutch squeak, or at least that is what I hope it is. Once the ...

I tend to think I keep up quite well given I'm in an N/A , saying that there are moments where you go around a corner and you know that the car in front must have a turbo as they have disappeared into the distance. :wink:

Re: Goodwood Green MK2 - Westwood Cross, Broadstairs

Same car spotted today, it is pretty well modded. It has a single exit exhaust and looks to be a tubby. The car has red seat belt pads and is in very good condition. I'm surprised that someone with a car like that is not registered on one of the OC forums.

Goodwood Green MK2 - Westwood Cross, Broadstairs

I went past a pretty smart looking goodwood green MK2 MR2 in my black MK2 today. The driver gave me a nod as I went past so I apologise for not waving (I was already past him before I had a chance due to both hands on the wheel from exiting the roundabout!!). Anyway, its the only MR2 of this color t...

Kent Car Craft - MOT Time!

As some of you know I went on holiday and left my MR2 with Kent Car Craft to do my MOT. I have faith in them now after the last couple of times my car was seen by Owen and crew so at least knew they were honest and wouldn't mess me about. I left them with a budget of £400 as anything over that I wou...

Ahh, I went to that fake Uni called Christchurch, but that was 3years ago now :) As I said, I live in Ramsgate so if you want a mini-meet up at some point around Canterbury way, perhaps meet up just outside the City and go for a drive?

Re: OC France Daytrip No.2

Much appreciated with the link , I missed that :)

We have 12 people signed up so far with some who have their tickets already for the tunnel (myself included). As its a Saturday day-trip it wont take up a lot of time for some members that longer abroad trips can do.

The MR2OC are once again invading France due to popular demand off the back of the first highly successful event and everyone is invited (as long as you have an MR2!). If you missed the first event, this is your chance to enjoy the sprawling roads through the continent. Words cannot describe the sce...

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Insurance for 17 year old

I didnt have an accident until I'd been driving for 3 years, and my 306 was written off by someone else not stopping and driving into the back of me. Entirely his fault, it was at traffic lights, at the back of a queue. It depends on how sensible you are, just that the majority of new drivers arn't....
