Title: Greetings!
Post by: Anonymous on July 8, 2004, 21:49
Hello all,

I'm due to pick up my lovely new (well, it's second hand but it's new to me  s;) ;) s;)  ) MR2 on saturday, only a day to go but the wait is driving me mad! Here's a bit of info on it:

Registered August 2002 (02 reg) 21,000 miles
Silver metallic
Black leather seats
Air con
Hard top
Toyota bodykit

I'm getting it from Toyota World in Brum, so if you've been there recently you may have seen it.

Had a bit of fun with me insurance, called up to change from my old car (53 reg 1.6 Megane), was met with "sorry sir, but we can't insure you on this car until you're 21", ARGH! luckily I'm 21 next friday so they let me off  s;) ;) s;)

I have a picture of it but I've no idea how to put it on here, do i need to host it on the web first?

Not long left now!

Jon

Thanks for the warm welcome, it's a nice friendly club ain't it?  s:) :) s:)

Had the roof down most of today, it might not be that sunny but it ain't raining  s;) ;) s;)  

The car is just absolutely brilliant, and I'm feeling rather smug at the moment!

Alright calm down! I've sent you an e-mail kris, thanks.

I'll get some better ones eventually, that picture doesn't really do the bodykit any justice. I'll keep an eye out for midlands meets, although i must warn you i'll probably bring my scary mate bob, he has a beard!

The car continues to impress, although it needs a wash now, quite an assortment of squashed insects on the front!

im probly on my own by saying this: that is the loveliest body kit for the '2 i have seen yet! nice and subtle and doesnt look all clumsy and 'aftermarket' like most of the others.

But tbh i dont think the '2 needs a bodykit, just lowering a little...

all my honest opinion folks   s:) :) s:)
