You know your an mr2 driver when you drive down the high street just to look at your cars reflection in the shop windows :whistle:

You know your an mr2 driver when you know what "man in dandism" means

You know your an mr2 driver when every new mid engine 2 seater just looks like an mr2 with a cool body kit fitted.

You know your an mr2 driver when you've had a friend sit on the cubby box behind the passenger seat for a short journey 8-[ :eye:

You know your an mr2 driver when complete strangers at the petrol station come and chat with you about your car :D .

You know your an mr2 driver when you know to use google "cached" to read threads on gt4oc :-$ .


You know you have been an mr2 driver when you buy a really nice gt4 st205 and its just not the same :(

Or any other car. I think you could win the lottery and buy a Ferrari and STILL go back for another MR2 because you miss them!

When you have 2 sheds and a workshop full of spares and you keep saying, one day I might need that part. ](*,)

When you are cruising with the roof off on a summers day. Pull up and get out with your Ray Bans on 8), Suavely you close the door with the window down and the sound tells everyone...no I'm not an Italian supercar, I was made in Japan :thumleft:

You know you drive an MR2 when you still feel the need to contribute 8 pages in to a thread listing their character quirks.
Pick a quirk any quirk, there are hundreds to choose from and perhaps that explains it all....

When every time you fix one thing or do one job you find something else to do...

When you have had the roof off and sometimes it is your side that leaks and sometimes the passenger...

When your friends and girlfriend keep complaining saying you should buy a better car..

When you think the list of jobs is half done and then it fills straight back up again...

Finally that moment when it is dry and sunny you cant see where you are going because of the glare but boost comes in and all is well!
