SORN
114000 miles and kilometres.
I have owned the car for 4 years and it has been my absolute pride and joy. I am selling as I fancy a change but will be sad to see it go. The car has never let me down and I have loved every moment I have owned it.
The car has always been warmed up and cooled down. Oil, oil filter and spark plugs have been changed religiously every 5000 miles.
Every modification has been an upgrade and cost has never been an issue. All work has been carried out by Japanese car and MR2 specialists.
I am a member of the MR2 owners club. This is the second MR2 I have owned, most of my friends have also owned an MR2 at some point. This is one of the best and well looked after examples. This has also been confirmed by garages when work has been carried out. The car is always a talking point with strangers and passers by.
This is a quick car and the handles perfectly. I have never played with or adjusted the boost pressure, as the car is fast enough and I never wanted to compromise the reliability of the turbo.
Engine:
Apexi induction kit.
HKS SSQV blow off valve.
HKS Silent High Power full stainless exhaust.
HKS oil cap.
Replica Greddy Intercooler, blue silicone hoses and polished hard boost
pipes.
Blue silicone vacuum hoses.
Brakes/ Suspension:
Camskill grooved front discs.
Feredo pads.
Cusco front and rear strut braces.
Tein Super Street coilovers.
ARB poly bushes.
New rear calliper's, rear brake pads and hand brake cable.
Interior:
Leather and half alcantara seats.
HKS rare steering wheel.
Razo alloy gear knob.
Razo Turbo Timer.
Alpine CDE-9874R Single slot CD player with iPod connection.
Infinity component speakers.
Original MR2 mats.
And still have the Japanese MOT road flare!
Bad Bits:
Please keep in mind the car is 15 years old, the standard wheels could do with a refurbish but to be honest they have always been fine with me. I never wanted to change the wheels as the car was set-up on the standard 15's.
The front bumper has a few chips and scratches. There is also a small patch of rust forming on the drivers door (some t*t in a car park). The fuel
warning light doesn't seem to work but I have never let the petrol get to that low a point.
I hope I have described the car and can answer any further questions. When I say this is my pride and joy and will be sad to see it go I really mean it! Even have a tear in my eye while writing this ad (ha ha).

The car had a new clutch, cam-belt and water pump all installed by previous owner prior to me buying the car. Potential buyer is coming to view the car on Sunday.

The car is still for sale and is currently SORN due to imminent purchase of new flat. Apologies to anyone who has not had a reply, had hands full with aforementioned flat purchase.
