[Mk2] [Generic] I'm coming back to the world of Mr2's! :) - (pics attached)

I had a Mr2 turbo from 2003 to 2005 (I think) which after alot of money looked like this....

Some of you may have seen it at JAE 2004 on Rogues stand.

I've since had a crazy Pulsar, Supra TT, Evo IV and now a Rx7.

I'm picking up my Mr2 this sunday which now looks like this...

It's also had a bit of engine work done. The engine's been rebuilt, got a different turbo on it now with external wastegate and screamer pipe etc. Don't know the exact spec as yet, but will do on Sunday.

I probably wouldn't get another Mr2, but it's the fact that it's my exact old car!! :D

Looks great mate, silver and black's the best colour combo for sure :whistle:

But looks like the engine panels and bits need painting too - think the red will clash a bit :-k

Oh ok, I did wonder, then I saw the sides in black and you can't see the engine lid from any other photos so guessed that was current condition...
