Looking to get back into MR2 ownership...is my last Turbo on here?

Post by Miss_my_MR2 »

As I near middle age, decided to dip back into MR2 ownership. Previously owned 3 in the late nineties and mid naughties!

My favourite of the 3 was a black Turbo, the registration was L23UMB, anyone know if the car is still on the forum????

It's taxed and MOTed, so it sounds like it's still on the road. Not sure I recognise the plate though (though I'm rubbish at that anyway)

Oh right, great car loved it! I bought it off a member on here back in 2004, who forgot to tell me before I bought it that you had wrapped it around a road sign whilst driving like a xxxx!!!

Been a while for me, but where is the best place to source an import, any advice appreciated guys.

A fresh import, or one that's been here for a while?

Has it got to be a turbo
Got a lovely white rev 5 UK car I'll be selling soon
It was bought to turn to race car but far to nice for that

Yes sorry mate, if it was to be an every day drive I would go for n/a, but really want a Turbo again.

Turbo conversion...gives you chance to put together a decent engine for it at the same time :thumleft:
