Re: [FINALIZED] [FOR SALE] MK2 Rev 3 Turbo

Hi all! Nails, no negativity taken :) I think I know what you meant. The rear sills and lower arches have been replaced with new metal (those eBay stampings that were made available not too long ago) The instruction to the fabrication shop was to "do it right, I don't want to do this again, but...

Re: [FINALIZED] [FOR SALE] MK2 Rev 3 Turbo

Looks alright, but we know how they drive and how quick they are, so that alone doesn't justify the higher than average price, imo. You say all original, but where are the toblerones and what is with the weird front badge and side repeaters? Also, the paint looks a bit tired, but maybe that is the ...

Re: [FINALIZED] [FOR SALE] MK2 Rev 3 Turbo

Hey all! Thanks for the replies, sorry for the delayed response, post notifications failed me :( Anyways, first off the price... Nails: I understand that this isn't 'bottom dollar', for sure, that reflects a general reluctance to sell for less than the true value. Also, it reflects how awesome the c...

[FOR SALE] MK2 Rev 3 Turbo

Hey all, I'm selling my MK2 Rev 3 Turbo. It's listed on eBay and all the pertinent information is there, but I'd obviously prefer to 'keep it in the family' and sell to a forum member so I can sleep well knowing it'll be looked after! Get in touch if you're curious, come and have a look and I can ta...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] New owner, big list of problems from first service.. what to do?

Hey Matt! Sorry I didn't see your posts sooner! Thanks, that's so nice of you :) Yes, the car is back from Pacific Works, Luke sorted it all out, I couldn't recommend him higher! Apparently the car wasn't in such bad shape as the mechanic I took it to first thought, in fact I think I got a pretty sw...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] New owner, big list of problems from first service.. what to do?

Well the mechanic said to allow £800 to sort the breaks, so maybe I am being taken for a ride. I hope I can sort these out, the only things that I'm really worried about is the timing belt and the rust. It sounds like the brakes are fairly straight forward if I can get refurbished calipers on ebay, ...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] New owner, big list of problems from first service.. what to do?

I did but didn't get a proper check done. It sounds and drives good and I really love it, checked all the past MOT's and repair docs which seemed sound. The only problem that was on the MOT was that there was a drive shaft oil leak but that hadn't been picked up on recently. Such a good car though :S!

[Mk2] [Turbo] New owner, big list of problems from first service.. what to do?

I just bought my 1994 MR2 and took it for its first service. My mechanic gave me a big list of problems and I really don't know what to do, as this is the first proper car I've owned.. and I'm not a petrol head, yet! I hope I haven't bought a lemon, but I don't know whether its worth fixing all thes...
