Mr2 show car

[Mbland]

Right here im selling my mr2, This is a tough decision but i feel it could finally be the right time to let her go to a new home if the price is right if not i will keep it.. The car is a 1992 mr2 tbar turbo with 80k on the clock. The car has been looked after mechanically by dsa automotive and mainly pacific works so is well looked after whatever it has needed it has got.. Soon as i purchased the car just over 2 years ago i had it put into dsa to be checked over, and any faults rectified, serviced and also dynoed to which it made 222bhp with just a gutted downpipe, filter and small exhaust.. Car has recently been mot'ed to which it passed with flying colours bar 1 advisory for 2 front tyres as tracking was out and had worn on inner edge so had 2 new tyres (£200) and a full alignement set up at wheels in motion (£110).

Now the modified spec that has taken place in my ownership

Bad points:

Tbh there isnt really any there is a few blemishes on the paint on the roof but that is going to be done when it goes into the bodyshop at end of sept so car will come with brand new looking paint. Only other thing is that there is currently no stereo fitted but if the buyer really wants me to put one in im sure we can come to a arrangement

Finally the price. Firstly please no questioning of the price this car has cost me in excess of £14k to buy and build to this standard so i think the price im asking is fair if you dont then thats your opinion just please keep it to yourself. I am happy to answer any genuine questions from potential buyers but please no time wasters and lastly as said i am in no rush to sell and will not drop a penny below the price i have in my head because if it doesnt sell im more than happy to keep it as it is my pride and joy.. literally


£5995 ono

Thanks mate allthough dunno whether i want the luck lol been really torn between selling and keeping for a while so hence putting it up and letting it play by here as i just cannot make a strait decision on keeping/selling

Yeah should have made it clearer the 222bhp figure was from the dyno when it had just a filter, gutted cat and exhaust system. I have not had it dynoed since its had the chargecooler + ebc etc fitted and boost was at 0.6bar.. The ebc is set up for 0.7bar and 1 bar allthough must admit its only really ever seen 1 bar during the setting up of the ebc

I photographed this car up at Pacific Works for one of the aforementioned mags and then watched as it was recently brought to the very fine fettle it's in now (my car is a frequent visitor to Luke's). Top notch car.
Good luck with the sale Mike but you're right you'll miss it.

What a gorgeous car - this is what i would like my car to look like!!!

If i had the money id have it off you like a shot as got plans to do mine and yours have everything i had planned for mine!!!!

Good luck with the sale.

[Mbland]

Thanks for the comments guys

Just a note as have been asked, As the car is going into the bodyshop in few weeks to have a couple of small paint imperfections sorted so that the new owner can have the car with a pristine, perfect paint job. So the car will be avaliable as soon as its out of the bodyshop..

[Mbland]

would possibly consider a part ex if the money was right

[willfinch36]

Can I just ask how you got the metal bit of the engine ( around where it says twin entry turbo) so dam clean and shiney????!

GLWS.

That's a very nice modded car. Any interior shots at all?

[Mbland]

Knew is miss something out lol yeah heres some







And heres a shot of the front with numberplate off to show off the chargecooler pre rad also shows how different the liquid yellow looks under different lights

[Mbland]

In a few weeks i will be advertising on piston heads/autotrader etc so if any of the people who have shown interest could let me know as obviously would prefer it to go to an enthusiast who will look after it as much as i do hence putting it on here and mr2oc before advertising to the general public

Is that liquid yellow the Renault Liquid Yellow found on the RS Clio & Meganes?

If so

Photo's will not do it justice. It's a "have to see it in the flesh" colour.

[Mbland]

yeah renault liquid yellow and as you say it really is so nice in the flesh every photo i have taken of it looks different due to lighting etc such a nice colour when on the move stands out so much without looking ott imo

some pics to try and show the colour in different lights












You get the idea lol all the above photos have been taking within the last 4 months lol just kinda shows how different the colour looks under different lights

Sensible offers considered

Allthough please no silly offers already been offered £4k

just to note for the £6k asking price is basically what has been spent on the bodywork modifications alone
