Title: Goodbye !!
Post by: Anonymous on December 27, 2004, 18:37
Hello Guys,

Well its time I said bye ! I've had the MR2 for more than two and a half years - all good. The car has been a dream to drive and has never ever let me down. Absolutely nothing but good times, however although I could never tire of the amazing handling the power output left a bit to be desired.  As a result I (like a few before me ) have gone in the direction of the S2000 (The Dark Side)

Although I never posted much - there was never a night that I didn't log in and check the forum out. I did find the forum an incredible source of info and will still check in now and again to see what is happening.

I have a few MR2 bolt on goodies available which I will post in the buying / selling forum when I get a chance, but for now bye and thanks for the help over the last couple of years.

Ohhhh...another one...funny how many in UK seem to trade for S2k, while over here all used MR2's seem to be in Mazda dealerships, probably traded to RX-8...

Take care! And come back to let us know how you compare these two  s;) ;) s;)

Cheers mate - I will not be far away.

I tried the RX8 but with the extra seats - the kids would have wanted to come out with us - no use !!

You have probably found an equivalent forum already at http://forums.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showforum=25   s:wink: :wink: s:wink:  

There is also a fee-paying membership at http://www.s2kuk.com/s2kuk/index.php which gives you some good discounts although I haven't joined   s:oops: :oops: s:oops:   as I am with http://www.hondarevolutions.com/ for the discounts I get with my local H dealer.

Nowhere else to get that (http://www.apbw47.dsl.pipex.com/revto9k.gif)   s8) 8) s8)

Reckon once the 350Z roadster comes, it will even out though.

Yeah I think a lot of people were waiting on my decision..now it's cool to own a 350Z everyone is jumping on the bandwagon.    s:lol: :lol: s:lol:   Still only ever seen 3 ! Makes me laugh when everyone looks at the badge to see what it is!

Unfortunately it gets serious respect from the Nova boys who seemingly wet themselves when they see it rumbling around.  I still miss the 2 quite a bit actually, it will always be very special because it was my first REALLY nice car.  And the 350 is so much more expensive to own you kinda think..do i REALLY enjoy that much more.  Luckily I do at the moment! But i'm starting to get a lift into work with someone else now as the petrol was costing me £400 a month.  So now its my weekend car!

Lusaka,

thanks for the info mate, the Honda revolutions was a new one to me - the others I'd found already, however they are not as user friendly as this forum.

See you around  - Greg     s:D :D s:D
