Seems like no one spots any in London area :(.. You guys up north either are keen MR2 spotters and we are not or just not many in London.

I am in London frequently but never see any other MR2's either. :-k

(possibly because all the Ferraris, Porsches, Massaratis and Lambo's obscure the line of sight to any car not in the £85k + price bracket! :shock: I went for lunch one summers afternoon in a great bar on Chelsea high street, and within the space of 30-40 minutes, 8 Ferraris past buy, all different models, every varient of colour (black, red, yellow, silver) and all made me very jealous!!! :lol: )

Tell me about it. I've seen a few in Slough and also a few around my area but none of them seem to be posting here. I guess you are right maybe we need to buy more expensive cars but the flip side is ours are now more rare than the Ferraris, Porsches, Massaratis and Lambo's! So I guess id rather stick with my car for now..only cos i have no other choice..lol

I've had a Ferrari and also currently run Porsches but I prefer my 2 as I prefer the looks you get in the 2 people look at you in a negitive manner when your in a F or P.

Well I think the Ps are far too common and to be honest i am more for custom designed cars as they are one off and reflect a bit of you. Any tom dick or harry can get a car for 50K its not a bit deal. Its invaluable to get a car thats been custom designed. I could buy a porsche but dont like the shape of them and they are more common than the 2s!!!

I completely agree that they are common but I got mine as I fancied a change from the X5 and she wanted her Cayman as just released and don't see many about. But i also drive a 2 because I like the style I have a soft spot for them and it's standard I don't need to 'customise' mine to enjoy it or stand out. But I know 2 Richards, one Tom but no Harry's and none of them own a P! :lol:
