Bought it! My first MR2... (pics)

[Import]

Went to have a look at it tonight, and laid down a deposit to secure the deal!

1995 MR2 Rev3 GTS Turbo Import, in Black, 17" Jade wheels, lowered 40mm, 72k miles, Corbeau CR1 Recaros, Custom dash in titanium (not sure if this is standard), 2x 12" custom sub enclosures behind seats.

It's had a new turbo, new front brakes, new clutch, cambelt recently done.

Just needs tax, and 2 new tyres (altho I'll be replacing all 4 so the widths are correct)

Been advised by Jonno to have 235/40/17s at rear, and 215/40/17s at front.

It currently has 215s at rear, and 205s at front.

Check my garage for a couple of pics, opinions welcome as always!


Cheers

Nice motor mate
I do like black, the interior looks pretty sorted as well

Just wondering what the switches are for on the left hand side of the dash

[Import]

Far left? or far right?

As far as I know, one is for the interior n*ons, and the other is for the "sleepy eye" kit...

Decided on the sale of my current car I'm going to treat myself to one of these

DannyW - any more pics of your car? we'll have to meet up once I've collected my new one!

Loving your headlights, I've seen them for sale on eBay for £299

Dont bother there poo !!!!

Ive got 2x Alpine D310 and 1x D300 !
Alpine is better so much better !
The pioneer one is just so boring to use and look at IMHO!

Decided against the X1R - and going to go for the D310 instead...

Hi mate, yeah i got my lights off Ebay for around that price. but saved a few quid by painting them myself, not really got any more good pics with them light installed, got loads from before though:

Nice one Danny, just deciding whether to get the lights like yours, or the "low rise quad lights" that some people have...

Thanks for the comments. More pics when I get her home!

[Import]

Can this not go back into General?
