MR2Turbo, 1991, J reg, restored...price drop to £2,500

Post by MR2 Turbo Boy »

Unfortunately, time has come to sell my first MR2 Turbo.. :cry:

She is a stunning nearly standard rev2.
Just passed the MOT - expires...October 02, 2014. Looking through the mot paperwork she has only covered 1,800kms in the last 2 years...

The reason for sale, as you can see, via the mileage - she stays in the garage and only venture's to shows.
I also have a 515bhp MR2Turbo( she IS not for sale),.. :D,...which takes most of my spare time..

History:
Immaculate restored Black MR2Turbo, T Bar, half leather/suede seats, electric windows and mirrors( retractable), c/l and driving fog lights ALL in working order.
Since rebuild she has covered about 800miles.. Over a 2year period.
Been kept in the garage for the entire owner-ship. A enthusiast's car for weekends and shows, time permitting and NOT taken out in the rain..

I have a very full A4 ring binder folder of info, regarding this car whilst in my ownership.
Mileage is still in km.... 156,000km... About 97,000miles in 23 years average..4,200miles per year...

Since ownership she has had the following:
She had a replacement engine fitted 2012 Oem.. Full cd available of resort restoration.
New clutch fitted 2012 Oem
Recon gearbox..2012
FULL show respray... Very shinny..full cd available of restoration
Under sealed.. Full cd available of restoration
Yellow calipers.. Need a bit of touch up, to make perfect.
Coil over suspension, lowered 30mm. New 2012.
Leno alloys, project DRims 7j front and 8j rears -tyres have a lot of tread left.
Air scoop, toms replica..
4-1 turbo manifold through a decat 3inch exhaust system into twin exit 6'' tail pipes.
New T Bar seals purchased/fitted 2011.
All new samco hoses throughout.. In yellow(rare in a MR2 -had to wait over 3 months)....
1. Auxillary hoses. TC-69/c
2. Water hoses. TCS208/c
3. Turbo hoses. TCS-69

Upon rebuild all new gaskets were fitted, throughout the engine.
Head was skimmed
1.1mm multi-layer head gasket fitted.
New front fuse box.
Up rated intercooler..
TypeR air intake filter... Fitted to car when originally purchased.

Interior ..
Replacement door cards.
Aftermarket steering wheel and horn button.

I am more interested in my car going to a enthusiast who will take care of her, so I'm looking for a price in the region of £3100.
She is a basically a new car, ready for the right member.

As you can see I tried to maintain the OEM look.
Many thanks for looking, any question's about the car feel free to drop me a message.

Jon

If this is still around in a few weeks I will come to buy. Need to shift something first. I don't think the missus would let me have a 5th car. sold my last turbo 7 years ago and several Subarus later, I fancy another for weekends. Also desperately need something that my missus and kids can't fill full of horse tack and rubbish for my own sanity!

Time to shift my Bugeye or 640 I think.
