MR2 Crystal Yellow

Priced at £30,000 :o

Pretty - yes but at that price?  Doesn't even look like an extra zero has been added by accident as you'd imagine they'd want more than 3K after all that work despite the big mileage.

Probably not a mistake!
That's not your average run of the mill standard specification Toyota MR2 Roadster.
It's a freshly resprayed, ultra rare, one of a kind, 4 seater model!

Maybe the 30.000 refers to the gramms added?  ;D


This one looks a way better deal

Including 2 standard seats that for some reason have the number stitched into the back of them...

Price seems spot on to me.
By the same metric mine must be worth 40k.

So yeah, seems right to me.

Not a body kit kinda guy, but have to say, rather like look of that.

Have never come across factory monocraft wide body kit. ???
I wonder if they also have their research crossed with the TF300 or just some amazing coincidence only 300 tte turbo kits were ordered. Who knows. Who cares.
While prices of 2s are shown to be rising. Long may it continue.

Have to agree that it certainly looks the part in the images, although for £30k I'd want the yellow trimmed interior as well...

I expect you would want a lot of blue tat too for that money......

It does look lovely....not £30,000 lovely. Also it is an auto.

Messaged the person selling asking for engine spec. Claimed it was supercharged, but in the write up it says "turbo" and then it says it take 8 second to 60 ( I think)...

Call the midlife!

I missed the turbo bit first time I read it, that'll explain the 131mph top speed...

Gumtree really is the place for high quality vehicles.

I wonder what Autotrader would say about this Ad with the comments they put on about the price ie "good price" "slightly high price" etc.

I suspect they would have to come up with a whole new category...

That makes it more rare and contrary to popular journalism and resulting belief, it is actaully a góód thing for spirited driving.
