All MOT centres will welcome MR2s of all ages and origin.

Or is it an illegal MOT you're looking for?

Or if you have a early MR2 and you need a non-cat test doing and usually have trouble getting this across to the tester just have a word before to make sure the right test is done if they refuse try another.

I took mine to Autobase in Marden near Staplehurst. It's not dodgy or anything like that but there is a guy that works there that breaks MR2's so they know a bit about the cars.

This is probably the best suggestion, if that's what the OP was referring to when saying "MR2 friendly".

Better than driving to one miles away and then finding out you've failed the MOT on some other stuff.
