Black (purple fleck?) H*** WWP - Canvey Island

Looks black from a distance, but there's a hint of purple in there I'm sure. Also has a huge silver rear wing. I was in the blue S2000 behind you, then in front of you after you changed your mind at the roundabout, as you left the island this morning. It's been nine years since I last owned my MR2 b...

Re: Trying to find my old '2 (J694 UBH)

I wouldn't have thought so, no. They have an ongoing court case via the Ombudsman, but I've very little details having only exchanged two emails apiece with the owner. Sounds very off to me, but my main concern is who has the car now and what are they doing with it :-k I believe the moment its decla...

Re: Trying to find my old '2 (J694 UBH)

Well, this has moved on somewhat in the past few days.. after digging out the bill of sale I'd kept filed for 8 years, then doing a little internet sleuthing, I got in touch with the couple who bought it from me! Turns out they never sold it, and it seems they looked after it very well for 7½ years....

Re: Trying to find my old '2 (J694 UBH)

Also http://ownvehicle.askmid.com shows it as uninsured. It's looking increasingly like it was taken off the road last year and has remained so. Hope she's not been scrapped, that would be beyond sad.

Re: Trying to find my old '2 (J694 UBH)

I'm almost certain I saw this car on the stand next to the MR2OC at this years JAE... looked a bit different, but I'm almost certain the number plate is the same... let me have a look through my photos and I'll get back to you... My heartrate actually went up a few notches at that - didn't realise ...

Re: Trying to find my old '2 (J694 UBH)

Oddly, almost exactly 2 years to the day later, I'm doing exactly the same thing.. looking at my old MR2, looking to see what's for sale now, and becoming increasingly nostalgic about the old girl. Just did another tax disc enquiry and it looks like she's SORN :cry: Would anyone have any suggestions...

Trying to find my old '2 (J694 UBH)

Hi all, I sold my old Rev 2 tubby seven years ago and haven't owned an MR2 since. I've been through several makes & models of motor since then, but nothing has really come close in terms of driving experience. I occasionally look longingly at some old photos of my former pride and joy and wonder...

2000 V-Reg Mark 2 for sale on Autotrader

A very tidy looking machine, I'm sure you'll agree! LINK It's been a while since I've owned an MR2, but I've wanted to get back in the pilot's seat ever since I sold my old '92 tubby. I've been idly flicking through Auto Trader, but the only new(ish) mk2's I can find are of the UK-spec variety. I wa...

Alright Rhys, rub it in!! :P So I just have a plain old boring looking car. [-( Southend.. hmm.... last time I went to Southend I was pulled over for noise pollution.

Re: Red Kitted MK2 - Canvey Way

Matt,

Could have been me or Rhys - check profiles? Also I'm hoping to pre-arrange some kind of meet on this thread, which I'll then transfer to a proper announcement.

So I'm after ideas / responses / etc on the subject! :P

Re: Red Kitted MK2 - Canvey Way

Well there's the usual haunts on the Island.. the ¼ mile (Northwick), the Clinic carpark on the one-way system.. would be interesting to see the Nova'boys' faces when half a dozen MR2s turn up! :lol: Either that or we could make it slightly more official and do a proper meet in a local pub, etc - an...

Re: Red Kitted MK2 - Canvey Way

How about at the next Bluewater meet? I think there was one this Tuesday so it won't be for another coupla weeks. Either that or we could just arrange something local on here.

Red Kitted MK2 - Canvey Way

Just 10 mins ago I was passed by a stunning red mk2 leaving the island. I was acknowledged (by her, I think) but I failed to react in time so I just wanted to come on here and apologise!!! :oops: It's not often anyone bothers to bat an eyelid in my experience... :? _________________ Black GT Turbo h...

Paul Port FCD - How to adjust?

There used to be a guide on installing & setting up Paul Port's FCD on the old IMOC site (http://www.imoc.co.uk/users/upload/FCD-Manual.pdf) but that link is now of course dead. http://www.websmileys.com/sm/crazy/1159.gif Does anyone have a copy of this guide, or even just know how to set this t...
