MINT 1998 MR2 Turbo Rev5 recession price £6000 !!!

Post by jonmillar652 »

Hi all IMOC'ers

My brother has decided to have another go at selling his Revision 5 MR2 Turbo, due to the tough economic times, £6000 will buy this car,

Here is a link to the car when it was previously on the website.

http://www.imoc.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=102961

It now has 60450 miles on the clock

The car is garaged in Northern Ireland, to discuss pickup/delivery options call Milo on 0781 556 4954 or you can email me on [email protected] if you prefer

Cheers
Jon Millar

That is not how ebay works when you set a reserve, if its not met the auction doesnt happen, it looked like it would happen but didnt.

ah right, fair enough.
he could have emailed the highest bidder, then relisted it with a BIN price of £5900.
good luck with the sale though :) and sorry for the spam.

I've been waiting for that very same '2 to appear to replace my current one, looks perfect!!

I don't think I can afford it right now though (just bought a house), so good luck with the sale.

Cheers for the comments anyway, it is a cracking motor completely clean through as Adam (also on imoc) the previous owner would testify, shame the country in fact the world is soo economically knackered at the minute!!

Is this car still available?

Presumably there'd be shipping costs to add on top? Any other additional costs that I'd need to factor in?

Cheers

Hi There, sorry for not seeing this post sooner, he still has the car garaged and hardly driven since this original post, Im actually going over to Ireland tonight! so I shall tell him you are interested,

the only cost is shipping back to uk, your get great deals for 1 car and driver for less than £100

There are no other expenses, just to register the car with the DVLA which is a paper work exercise as even though NI is part of the UK, they have a separate database DVLNI, it still has a private english plate on it (Original owner Adam was in the uk) and like I say its a just taking a piece of paper into the DVLA, no cost involved.

If you want to speak with Pete his mobile is 0781 556 4954

Good luck, its a lovely example throughout

cheers
Jon
