Hi all

She has just been serviced (£1100 spent on her service this month 4/3/09) including the usual oil, filter and coolant as well as a new radiator. In November 2008 she had all new discs and pads for her MOT.

She dyno'ed at 261bhp running at only 12psi and thanks to Ryan @ 2Bars mapping and Jeremys ECU (mapped at Surrey Rolling Road - graphs on request when I scan them in) she doesn't overfuel like tuned Rev2's do. She managed 321 miles to 43.6 litres or 32mpg for those Rev2 owners that are wondering. No really.....no typo....that's 321 miles and it hadn't hit reserve yet!

Tuning wise there is plenty of room for more power if you want to up the boost...the supporting mods are all there.

Cosmetically she isn't perfect but she cleans up quite nicely - judge for yourself - see pics. Someone numpty once tried to jack her under the rear wheel arch and dented it, there's a scuff on the front bumper, a split in the lower valence - the usual accumulation of 16 years of car life.

Maintained REGARDLESS of cost, no clunks, surprisingly supple ride,
also excellent on track.

The brakes are all new and are absolutely fantastic.

320 miles to a tank after mapping!

Mountains of paperwork and bills in the last 3 months for well over £1500.

71,424 miles

£2,500 - no offers
(£2,650 gets her with tax until March 2010 - again no offers)

I'm selling up as I've been seeing someone from Stuttgart behind her back

cheers

Tom

edit : Just added a few details regarding imobiliser, stereo and interior that I had forgotten

And this space is for answering any questions but at the top of the post where people can read it!

Updated with recent service stuff, dyno graphs, MOT and a note to say that the new owner will get some extra bits I have knocking about free (if they want them) :-

RPS Streetmax clutch and cover plate 328lb/ft
Blue Samco Silicon Water Pipes (£90)
Standard Exhaust in excellent nick
New Genuine Toyota Pipes from Hell (Long metal water pipes under the car)
eeeerrrm anything else I find knocking about!


Should of said that I have quite a large pile of spares collected in a long MR2 career, including a spare engine, gearbox, wheels, standard exhausts etc - whoever buys her can have first refusal on bits they want.

edit : It has both Toblerones done, (and the front number plate is attached too btw!) - I just took the photos halfway through doing the toblerones



Power and Torque



Power and AFRs



MOT and Brakes done in November 2008



Service, New Rad Fitting and Annoying Leak Fixing



Bill for new radiator



Lightly grilled aubergine.....or MOT....I can't recall and I'm feeling surreal because I've finished work.



Those that have asked for other images etc be patient as they are coming I just have a day job and like to sleep at night



Update with pics of scuffs and what not (below)



Top left - some owner tried to jack her up via the wheel arch at some point
Top right - scuff on rear bumper
Center - scuff on right of front bumper
Bottom left - scratch in winglet (that was me )
Bottom right - crach in rear bumper (repaired)

Hope that helps

Good luck with the sale Tom - an awesome car this

[poser]

Shitting hell, that's tempting.

Two quick questions - Are you darn sarf (I assume you are from the Surrey mention)? How come it's got a toblerone on the passenger side and not on the driver side?

Have been saving up for an S2000 in the summer, but I like this a lot.

[Gersen]

I am indeed daarn Sarf in the Sarfhamptaarn.

Or Southampton if you like being picky

It has both Toblerones done, (and the front number plate is attached too btw!) - I just took the photos halfway through doing the toblerones as she was looking particularly foxy.

Someone else has asked for more piccies of the interior, engine bay, boot, frunk and the imperfections and whatnot so I'm going to do that this week too.

[Munnsy]

cracking example there

REally is one of the cleanest i have seen on here for a while
good luck with the sale

This used to be my car, and I loved it then, and still love it now.

It *really* is a lovely drive, the suspension is just perfect, and now Tom has put his engine in it (with the steel headgasket, CT20b and pulleys etc etc) it easily has the performance to match. A lovely well balanced drive.

The Brakes are awesome too! Lovely progressive feel, and quite a lot better than any other '2 Turbo I've driven.

Looks a lot shinier since Tom got his OCD cleaning disorder and took it out on the paintwork!!

Good luck with the sale, and a free bump for a great example!

Cheers for the comments guys - much appreciated.

I'll be sad to see her go but the new Porker blunts the sting somewhat - been after one forever!

Now updated with new pics and some freebies that the new owner can have that were knocking about in the "Gersen's Shed of everything MR2"

[Olly P]

Damn that's great value.

You won't see me selling mine (with similar mods) anywhere near that cheap.

Good luck with the sale!

[Gersen]

She's gone.....well not quite...still parked outside all clean and shiny and I don't have the keys anymore

Gone to an owner that turned up in another black Rev 2 Turbo.

Hope you enjoy it Alex

[MR2TURBOWILL]

Well its a buddy of mine that bought it, and it will be much loved again well chuffed made it home and had alot of fun:)

Oh by the way Tom, It spits flames on gearchanges

Theres a natscock between my car and this one, with this one having a slight edge im putting down to having a different intercooler. Both were full of parts so we will see


Will and Alex

[Gersen]
