World's quickest MR2 for sale!

Post by Century Motorsport »

The time has come folks....

With the race team ever expanding, my weekends free becoming less and less and workshop space becoming a premium I can't bare to see the MR2 sat in the corner collecting dust when it could be put to such better use!

Those who know it and have seen it can vouch for this being probably the best preparred MR2 in the country. It has had a bare shell build up with careful attention to the small, often overlooked details that have aided its performance in breaking the 1/4mile MR2 world record.

The time it laid down in july (9.722) is not a true reflection of this cars potential - with more time on launches and gearshifts at santa pod I think a 9.5 @ 150+ is easily achieveable..... I litterally do not have the time to realise the full potential of the car any more.

If you want a full 25page build log of this car then check this link out http://www.imoc.co.uk/forums/viewtopic. ... &start=480

All specs are in that.

Car comes with an extra kevlar/carbon bucket seat (for passenger rides!)
set of drag slicks on 15x10 wheels
set of street radials on 15x10 wheels
set of coil overs & rev 1 suspension
2 lightweight front wheels for use with drag wheels.

There is no need to spend another penny on this car, it has everything!

If drag racing isn't your thing then a change of turbo and you've got yourself a beast of a time attack car!

Mag featured in Jap Performance, banzai, MR2 only all in september issue.

I realise this car probably won't be sold through this site but i'm going to advertise it every where and will more than likely put it into an auction in the new year.

This isn't just a fast MR2 .... this is a piece of history, it can never be taken away from the fact that it is a world record breaker!

It's hard to put a price on a car like this but with the kit its running, the condition of it and the heritage of it i'm asking for £18,000.

The car will not be broken for parts!

A little reminder of this car...

Like many "if I had the money" I'd love to add this to the collection but can't really justify it for the limited use it would get.

Good luck with the sale, hope it stays in the UK.

Such a shame Nath, but as you say, if you have no time, then it's time for it to go.

Good luck with the sale mate. :wink:
