Ha ha, never actually seen one of those.

The seller wonders if someone with MR2 mania would like to add this low-grade model to their collection....

A prospective buyer asks if its equipped with an LSD

You sound like a handy 'Jap friendly' person to know

Good find Toni, wonder how much that would be to get into the UK

[tonigmr2]

70K yen is only around £530, peanuts and it looks in really good nick.

Hey BMR2L, nice that you live in Tokyo!

Perfect candidate for a 3SGTE IMO...

Tintop shell

just like the one in my lockup

[tonigmr2]

Heresey really, it deserves to be kept original.

[PW@Woodsport]

Gimme 30 mins with a grinder!

I've converted an SE SC to 1.5, no big deal really.

[tonigmr2]

Well of course not, LOL. But it's nice to keep some!!

[PW@Woodsport]

Rubbish! One day ALL Mk1's will be 1.5's muhahahahaha

[PW@Woodsport]

Hey Toni, while i'm on, where is your TC at these days? Has it been abandoned or still getting done? Seems like it's been ongoing for 5 or 6 years! Any updates?

[tonigmr2]

I'm just saving it from being a 1.5.

Seriously, there's not that much more to do, but it's a 'fill in' car for when Rogue aren't flat out, and during the racing season they're flat out all the time...

I'm confused as to why an AW10 is in a 1b shell

I wouldnt say no though

Tim the aw10 was made up to 89 for the JDM

the AW10 was a continuous low spec model run along side the AW11 and not as many think the previous model to the AW11

Just for interest I asked a freindly jap car imported how much it would be to get a car like this oen over, here is the breakdown:

Hi Ollie thanks for getting in touch, that particular car would work out to around £2,225 landed including VAT & import Duty, you would only need to add as below to make it road legal

£75 Customs agent fee
£50 Mot
£20 speedo converter
£230 Registration and road tax
£25 number plates

I am intrigued by the comment 'low spec'. Don't get me wrong, I adore my car but I am under no illusion with it's spec. It has Central Locking, electric windows and, er, um, seats? Hardly luxurious. My trusty Mondeo has a much high spec

The AW10 was also sold in the States I recall so might be cheaper to get one from there if anyone's desperate! But a carb fed single cam engine, no rear spoiler and steel wheels aren't exactly high spec!
