RobSheffield Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Its sadly time to sell my little MR2 turbo I bought this last December as a bit of a fun car while my Supra is off the road, its performed really well, never has let me down, in fact i think its one of the most reliable cars i have ever owned! I have completed some maintenance and upgrades on the car in the time i have owned it. Id keep it a bit longer but the Supra is nearing completion, and i only have a need for one powerful car so this needs to go to make way for a small diesel. Enough babble from me now! It has had an engine replacement as the previous owner allowed it to overheat last summer, i have no paperwork to confirm this but it does pull well, especially compared to several 100k plus mile cars. I have recently serviced the brakes, freed off all the caliper sliders and checked the pads, all ok, oil and filter, flush and replace coolant and antifreeze including fully bleeding the coolant system. Spec Light blue 1992 MR2 turbo, 3SGTE, 5 speed manual 196,000 KM - approx 121,000 miles Engine replaced with approx 50,000 km engine LSD gearbox Heater pipe replaced (known fault on the MR2) 15" Volk wheels, painted Anthracite fitted with budget tyres with plenty of tread Bilstein suspension, new Balljoints, track rod ends and drop links all round Stock exhaust with no baffles Clifford 650 alarm with Blackjax and remote central locking Alpine CDA-9847R stereo (can be linked to ipod) Tax runs out end of March New MOT to be supplied £2000 ovno A few pictures taken today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
