[Mk2] [NA] Any body know what happened to my old car?

Post by Kenny P »

Hello all. I had a lovely 1990 h reg t-bar uk model until someone cracked me up the rear and the insurance wouldnt repair it. I sold it on and just wondered if anybody here had any parts of it etc. The reg was H665 LCC. Ive now got a MG TF dont kill me lol. Im looking at getting back on the mr2 wagon though. :lol: Ken.

The enquiry is complete
The vehicle details for H665 LCC are:

Date of Liability 08 07 2008
Date of First Registration 06 09 1990
Year of Manufacture 1990
Cylinder Capacity (cc) 1998CC
CO2 Emissions Not Available
Fuel Type Petrol
Export Marker Not Applicable
Vehicle Status Unlicensed with Keeper Change


Information from the DVLA Tax information search not really sure what "unlicensed with keeper change actually means" however it looks like its still on the road.

The crash had knocked the boot floor up and damaged the exhaust. The assessor said it was a 2k repair. I think they paid me around 1500 for it. It had done 140 k miles and was getting ready coolant leak etc. I hope somebody as given it a second lease of life though. :thumleft:

Its was red the number super red 3 red i think it was. I used to know all about them forgot a lot now. I had removed the leather seats because it was ripped and replaced them with a set of blue cloth out of a white mr2. Some lads from leicester fetched it who told me they specialise in mr2s and had many many mr2 turbos etc. There brother worked in a garage and repaired mr2s for a living and also fitted the 355 kits as well.

Ive been looking but they have mostly had body kits on them etc. Im just after a red or black immaculate unmolested t bar turbo the model that does 0-60 in 5.1 rev 3 onwards? with the half suede leather or even better the full black leather as seen in uk t - bars.
