This is a very fast car with an estimated 260bhp which can cover 0-60mph in around 5.5 seconds. I imported the car from Japan in June 2003 since then recent laws have made it very difficult to import an MR2 Turbo of this age. Revision 4’s are very rare in this country.

The car has had a new cam belt, new clutch and I had the engine refurbished in July 2005, the bottom end was rebuilt, the turbo sent away to be checked over and the head rebuilt. At this point I was intending to keep the car for a long time, since then the car has been running beautifully. Recently I’ve changed all brake pads, had 4 new tyres fitted (2 in July 2006 and 2 in April 2006) and changed the spark plugs and ignition leads.

The bodywork is very good, the side skirts have some stone chips.

I change the oil and filter every 3000 miles. The car is run only on Shell Optimax and is kept in a garage over night. I have loads of receipts which show the whole UK history of the car and I have the Jap history as well.

I am happy to answer any queries vie ebay or call me (Tim) on 07796 581783. You are also welcome to come and inspect the car please contact me to arrange.
The car is based in Fareham, Hampshire, PO14

Linky no worky, thought I'd give it a go

When I've looked at the photo's there seems to be some white areas on the sills. Is it my eye's playing up??

Looks very tidy though

Not sure why these links don't work. Best best is to copy and paste them into the URL field on your browser.

The car is in excellent condition but the sideskirts have a few stone chips, which you've seen. If i don't sell the car this time round i'll keep hold of it but i really wanted to sell it before i move house on 1st December.

Not sure if i mentioned by i just put another 6 months tax on it too.
