The best Rev4 Turbo in the country

[RedWitch]

Unfortunately it’s time to sell my beloved Tubby. I’m moving abroad with my job, I don’t have enough parking space at my new UK base and Mrs M is expecting a baby in November.

This car is probably the finest example of a Mk2 revision 4 GT turbo T-Bar in the country and is in mint condition!

The car is currently registered on a personal plate which I will transfer before the car is sold.

What’s wrong? There is a scuff mark at the base of the front splitter and a very small scratch near the fuel filler cap.

Available mid-July, also advertised elsewhere

Mikes car is an absolutley stunning immaculatley maintained example of an MR2. Who ever buys this will be a very very lucky person!

Hi,

You are saying that the car was built in 09/97 and registered in 1998 in Japan (which would make it a late rev4). How did you manage to register it in the UK?

[Rev5GT]

as it was imported in 2005 it could be registered the SVA / 10 yr Ruke came out after that date i think..

Rash
p.s does look a fantastic example

Rash - that's correct.

I have all of the import paperwork which shows the car was imported correctly.

[adamshaw]

Yep that is true as my rev 5 turbo was imported in may 2003 before the 10yr rule came into play

Seems a nice car and very good price!!

[TNM]

Awesome car, bargain price!

Nice, apart from the wheels, back end light treatment and grotty engine bay - not quite the nicest example in the country but it's OK I guess.
