Due to a change in work location I'm thinking of buying another mr2 to uses as a daily driver, while the green one is tucked away till the summer
Must be :-
facelift
Low mileage
Hardtop
Ideally local
If anyone has anything close to the above please let me know.
Thanks s:) :) s:)
And there was me thinking you had kicked you habit!
Now we have to restart all your MR2A badges again! s:roll: :roll: s:roll: s;-) ;-) s;-)
There is a cheeky yellow one for sale that you haven't had before.
It meets one of your criteria, has a hardtop! s;-) ;-) s;-)
better buy that yellow one quick or Scotty will have it as he like the coulour so much s:lol: :lol: s:lol:
it be a good to see waht you do this time that for sure s:bounce: :bounce: s:bounce: s:bounce: :bounce: s:bounce:
Nothing better than 2 two's
Three 2s?

I've been there before never again lol
One to drive daily and one to do silly things too... that'll do me.

That could be the plan, Just need to find a tidy one now that's local.
I thought you had t wo turbo's, the green and a red from last year?
Hi
We're considering selling ours, if you're interested PM us.

I've just got the green one now.
We may need to have a club intervention for Steve. This is getting silly now.
I think you should just get 2 and be done with it. And hold on to them
That's just not in his make up Patrick. s;-) ;-) s;-)
Please please...... I've had the green one for nearly three years now #commitment
Another green one on AutoTrader at present Steve :-) :-) :-)
I can't be greedy and have two green ones.
We used to call a certain politician "2 jags", but try as I might I just can't imagine getting used to Steve "2 twos" A.
Don't make us do it Steve...
s:lol: :lol: s:lol: I've been called worse s:lol: :lol: s:lol:
What happend to red turbo? I havent even driven my green since buying it and now bought another.
The red turbo is no more as the paintwork was unsavable. The parts have made many other members cars better.
Why haven't you driven the green one?
Viewed car today, unfortunately not right for me.
Still looking, has anyone got anything nice / clean / genuine for sale or thinking about selling soon.
What did you go and look at?

Since buying my green last year i still haven't driven it yet. I have just bought another that is also parked up. Do you have any parts from red turbo left
Nothing left over now I'm afraid

Now that would of been interesting.
At this rate I'm best just using the one I've got.
Not many clean low mileage cars about these days.
Hopefully viewing another one on Friday
06 with hardtop
The detailed pictures look promising
More details to follow
I'm still looking, if your considering selling your clean low mileage facelift please let me know.
Steve, I'm considering selling Foxy around June/July basically because I'm moving jobs and it will mean I wont have any time to drive her which breaks my heart. I brought her end Jan 2016, first reg Sept 05, Mot Nov 2017, I'm 3rd lady owner, full toyota history, 54k now but will go up abit. 4 new Falkens at 50k, wheels refurbished last year. New auxilliary belt. New Brake fluid in Nov 2016. Drains unblocked last year. New idle control valve last year. As you can see, I've had alot done to Foxy in a short time. Just purchased some fog lights from Hamish this weekend as one is corroded. I'm looking at £3,750 when I come to sell her sadly. Anyway, you maybe wanting a 2 much quicker but just thought I've got plans to sell. Cant believe I'm doing this a second time! s:( :( s:(
Quote from: "s12vea"I'm still looking, if your considering selling your clean low mileage facelift please let me know.
Why didnt you buy mine?
Not low enough miles?
Certainley not clean enough.

Don't sell it!!
I'm hoping to find one sooner but bare me in mind closer to the time.
I'm going to bump this towards the top again as I may be talking myself into another mr2 project,
Most be :-
Low mileage
Hardtop
Anyone thinking of selling in the near future please drop me a message
Thanks for looking

You have made me think about v6 again! Lots of ideas floating around now.
Do you NEED another 2 ? Course you do, there can't be many left on the road you haven't owned so go for the full set.

I've finally found a really clean example to be a stable mate for Greeny Should be collecting Monday / Tuesday
It's been a while since I've driven a standard roadster and she drives silky smooth s8) 8) s8)
And has 15 main stealer service stamps in book and huge stack of invoices not bad for a 55 reg s:crazyeyes: :crazyeyes: s:crazyeyes:
Some plans for the future and pictures to follow once she has been detailed

Well done on finding one that meets your high standards!
Looking forward to the pictures and the plans.
Looking forward to the piks Steve
Well done Steve, hope you managed to find a hardtop one. Enjoy.
Yes this one has a hardtop. If I hadn't found this one I would of bought yours.
It's tough finding a good one, this has taken me a lot longer than I expected.
Maybe that is the final lesson to me to keep Foxy after all then. As you say, not many low milers sound honest ones around these days! I'm pleased you found one, you've done me a favour Steve. Whether I move or not, Foxy is coming with me! s:lol: :lol: s:lol: s:D :D s:D
Really hope you keep Foxy s:bounce: :bounce: s:bounce: s:bounce: :bounce: s:bounce:
Seriously not many genuine 2's left now
We could cross our fingers and hope the values start to increase s:mrgreen: :mrgreen: s:mrgreen:
If you have a decent 2 these days there is no point selling up you will only get peanuts and when you realise the mistake you have made very limited options
Never selling mine on the face of it 2004 with 46,000 miles is worth maybe £3,500
Mods into many £1,000's count for nothing

Can I have a cert for TF 295677 please? I'm sure it's one of the final 300,000
