rev 3 turbo - yellow, 45000miles
MR2 GT Turbo rev 3
M22 GT X (number plate included)
Yellow
44,000 miles
I have owned this car for 3 ½ years now, for which it has been my pride and joy. It has been shown at JAE 2006 with IMOC, and at Tatton park sports and classic show for the last 3 events with the Drivers Club.
Regular attention is attracted due to the modern rev 5 looks, great condition and rarity of the colour. It is estimated that there are single figures of rev3+ turbos in the country in this colour
Wheels
OZ Racing 17 alloys
Yokohoma A539 tyres, all with good tread
Brakes
TaRoX 40 groove front discs and fast road pads
Body
Number plate M22 GT X will be included
Genuine Rev 5 UK spoiler
UK front splitter
UK toblerone blanking strips
Clear indicator repeaters
Clear front lights
Hardtop
Retracting mirrors
Steering fog lights
Engine
Standard this engine is rated at 240 bhp, with the added Charge cooler (taken from the Toyota Celica gt4) and induction kit this engine ran at 265fwhp, proving the great condition of the engine.
This engine has only ever ran over standard boost once, at which point the fuelling couldnt keep up, from day to day use, the car is ran at less than stock!
When the car was first imported there were troubles caused by a paddle clutch, this destroyed the thrust bearings and resulted in a new bottom end from Toyota, and a rebuild cost of over £2500
Since, serviced regularly at home, new oil, sparks, every 3000 miles, and major services done by a Toyota foreman, this engine has never put a foot wrong.
This engine has only covered the equivalent of 45,000 miles, for which I have been the driver of 12,000
Interior
The interior is in great condition, for day to day use seat covers have been used to maintain its condition. The drivers side has slight wear to the bolster, but the leather has regularly been fed to maintain its condition.
Stereo
The car will come with a flipout CD/DVD/MP3 player with 7" screen and uprated speakers (phoenix gold) for better sound quality, any upgrades to this can be negotiated with the sale.
Tax and Test
The car comes with 11 months MOT and 11 months road tax
Price
£6,000 including charge cooler kit
the car currently has the follwing mods that are negotiable additions, otherwise will be replaced with standard parts
Apexi GT Exhaust and Aussie downpipe
Induction Kit
Boost Controller
Blitz Dump Valve
Genuine reason for sale, will be very sad to see such a special car go.

Hi Dave,
Not really interested in a skyline sorry, going to be sticking to another MR2 (there you go people!!!!) However, one of the guys at work is looking for a skyline, so if you could pm me some details and pics i will pass them onto him.
if you want to give me a call to discuss anything further my number is 07709 496 610
I am in no rush to sell so can hold the car if need be.
Cheers
Neil

Hi Neil
Have a look at this thread there is a couple of pics of it and a bit of a spec list. There is quite a lot more to go with it like mp3 player, gtr rear spats, light up skyline rear pannel, toad cat 1 alarm linked to the folding mirrors etc. http://www.imoc.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=60880

Fair enough but don't let the auto put you off. The valve body's modified and changes gear far quicker than you could in a manual.
Re: [FINALIZED] rev 3 turbo - yellow, 45000miles
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo
This is an excellent car, Neil has always looked after it, superb condition (which is why I keep taking photo's of it ), will be a shame to lose it from the regular Tatton Park line-up.
Hope there's something equally good replacing it
Free bump...

I will mention that too him but i think he is quite set in his ways. I need a new everyday car (my mondeo went on to be made into a small cube on thursday night ) , but unfortunately would have no chance of insuring the girlfriend on this so unfortunately it looks like any swop isnt possible sorry. I also need some of the money from the sale to go towards the new one. If that makes sense!
