Thermostat
Rad Cap
AFM
Dash temp sensor + tapped into housing
Fan control switch
Piping to rad under tank replaced

Control relay for fans
Rewired fans
Modifications:
Mapped unichip
Stock exterior aside from rev3 lights, clear corners and rear tinted windows

Corbeau Buckets
Toms steering wheel
TRD leads
Catch Can
Converted to 180mph UK dials
Alpine components all round
I bought it from an IMOC member who i know loved it just as much as i do. To my knowledge it has only ever run stock boost on high grade fuel, and has always been serviced when needed, oil every 3000 miles etc. I have tonnes of history on the car since it was imported, and it passed its last MOT without a single advisory (due 07/07), taxed until Feb.
Im asking £3200 no offers. I know this is a little high for a rev1 but i think justified. I believe its worth a potential buyer spending a little extra on this compared to another for the peace of mind they would get from knowing the next few years will be totally trouble free.
More pics are available via email, so pm me if needed.

Sorry to be negative dude but i`m trying to be honest, in today`s car climate a car can have it`s value halved in 3 years, so a 16 year old car just isn`t gonna fetch 3,2k but good luck to ya you just wanna check the other for sale ad`s.

If the work you have had done can be proven, that is a good price in my opinion, you should maybe be prepared to budge slightly in price, but only by a couple of hundred.
The other trouble is, it is not the best time to be selling a 2 seater sports car!

Thanks for that guys, was starting to feel a little nervous that i had made a mistake in spending as much as i did on the work. Im not in much of a rush to sell it, so can wait for the right person.
All work is proven with masses of paperwork from James at 3s

Hope Carl doesnt mind me chipping in!
This used to be my car. I looked at about 20 Tubbys, including rev 3's for less money than this before buying this one as it was by far and away the best. With the work I had done (exhaust manifold helicoiled and 'hose from hell' replaced) plus the work Carl has had done on the car this should provide as trouble free motoring as you can get from an mr2 turbo.
Serviced while I had it with Silkolene & new filter every 3k!
It's a great car!!

Carl, sell it and buy an Mr2 Supercharger!
I dont know anything about MX5 Turbos, other than that they didn't come with turbos as standard which would be enough to put me off...
