First of all, its been years since I was on here good to see its still going! Anyway I'm moving house in 2 weeks and I've had to clear out my garage of all my bits and bobs from my good old MR2 days. I was going to put some items in the "For Sale" forum but I see its only now for premium m...

If its "Top Spec" why does it have cloth seats???

Just of of interest, what better cars interms of fun and handling (excluding £30K+ ) cars have you all driven?

Hi, I've never had a problem with the battery in my 2 at all (not sure how old the battery is 5+ yrs ?? ). It has always started first time every time...until last night in Tesco's car park! filled up with petrol got back in, turned the key..nothing, busy petrol station :oops: had to push it to the ...

yep, I've thought of that before and made sure they are clean...

My headlights are very very poor. The lights only seem to light up about 15-20 feet infront of me. When there are street lights its not so had but when there arn't its almost dangerous. Its a rev1 G Limited, the lights were fine for the MOT, but is there anything else that can be done to improve the...

I've just got new insurance and I've been able to use my 6yrs NCB from my normal everyday car on my MR2 which I use at weekends/when sun is out. True its two policies but I can use the NCB on both cars, this makes it MUCH cheaper

New track rod ends from Toyota are £50 +vat :shock: Is it possible to get a new rubber grease boot ?? Has anyone ever come ac...

Just been to my local motor factors and got 2 new front track rod ends for a 1991 import (£19.80 +vat each ish). Got back home and the new ones are about 15cm to short (plus they don't have the curve in the bar the original ones have) so I went back to the shop and they said it was the right part ho...
