Re: [FINALIZED] 95 Caribbean Blue G-limited T-bar 3vz powered... £4000

Great car Dave. Shame weddings and houses are so expensive. Thankfully the suggestion of selling the turbo has not materialised yet... perhaps she knows she'll get a firm no lol. A good friend is considering one for fun/track days. He is registered on here so I've sent him the link. Good luck with t...

Re: Do I need a BOV?

Although i`ve been registered on here for a few years now, i`ve not posted too often. I`ve tended to sit back and use the forum for help advice and tips. However this thread has got my interest so i thought i would share my views on it. Running a small tuning business with a friend, you can imagine ...

Do you still need measurements?

I have these rims in the offsets and widths your listing so I can check for you.

Re: Fog Lamps working, but not moving with the steering

I figured that was probably the most likely thing.

But sometimes its worth a shout out to see if anyone has found a common issue. I wondered if perhaps it was possible for the mechanisms to jam.

It all looks pretty well protected under there. I`ll have to remove and inspect.

Fog Lamps working, but not moving with the steering

HI all, I have a Rev3 Turbo with the steering front fogs. They illuminate, but have stopped turning with the steering. (switch in the up position makes them move) They have been working intermittently for a while, but now seem to have stopped completely. I`ve changed the control box but that had no ...

Re: OLD MR2 OWNER WANTING ANOTHER!

Yeah that's why I said to him if I come and see it, I'm going home with it lol. The guys at work have all said how nice it looks even if they're not Mr2 fans, which clearly highlights what a good car it is. I really feel like I'm getting a lot of car for the money... To make the purchase even sweete...

Re: OLD MR2 OWNER WANTING ANOTHER!

Just to reinforce my belief that i already have a pretty awesome Girlfriend, she has agreed to let me use some of the funds from our joint account until such time as i get shot of the Clio. :D perhaps its because she`ll be insured on it too?? I did have a call about the Clio last night, so i am hopi...

Re: OLD MR2 OWNER WANTING ANOTHER!

LOL... I had a feeling you guys would be saying this! I guess i knew it as well. I have never wanted a car so bad! I`ve made a step today and listed the Clio for £750 on Gumtree, so hopefully someone will snap it up soon. Would make a good track slag with coilovers, engine mounts and the usual cat-b...

Re: OLD MR2 OWNER WANTING ANOTHER!

Yes thats the one.... For me, thats perfect. Perhaps revert the filler cap back to stock and maybe remove the rear spats, but otherwise i love the look. I think the price is worth every penny. As i said though, both from an insurance perspective and from a financial one, i just cant do it atm, other...

I currently work for a well know Tuning company and was obviously drawn to the one of the cars that we specialise in, but now its time for another Mr2! I am ...
