I bought this MR2 as my first dabble into the



I won't bore you with a long story but it was purchased from a garage who had never registered it, so it only has one previous owner.

It was totally stock, but upon purchase I noticed that the exhaust was pretty loud which turned out to be blown.

Now the car was running sweet so I thought I'd dump the stock air intake, and replace it with a K&N filter performance kit.

The car's always ran perfect, and I havent had a major fault with her at all.

The couple of minor faults I've had have been the speedo cable, and the gear linkage cable snapping.

Due to the gear linkage snapping my clutch also went, so I also got all those replaced about a year ago.

About a year and a half ago some tried to break into the car and totally messed up the driver side lock, and scrathed the door pretty badly, and dinted it also.

I've also added some genuine LockWood dials.

The drivers side wing got smacked with a trolly and had a HUGE dent in it, so I had to replace that.




The paintwork is tidy but not perfect, but keep in mind it's a 15yr old car! There's a few stone chip's, but it shines up really well as you can tell from the pictures.

There's a small chip in the windscreen that's been there since I bought the car, it's doesn't pose a problem, and isn't a fail on the MOT.

It can be seen on DSC_0014, in the middle of the windscreen towards the bottom.


I've kept up with regular servicing, using Castrol oil, or Mobile One, and used the best gear oil, RedLine MT90, highly recommended by many MR2 enthusiats and by myself now! I've always tried to put in Shell Optimax, but if for some reason I can't then it's always Super, I never fill with anything else.

I don't let anyone smoke, eat, or drink in the car, so the interior is superb, as shown in DSC_0024.JPG.


In the few years of my ownership I've NEVER had a failed MOT, and it's always passed with no problems what-so-ever.


Phew, I think that's all of it, just done this from memory, so if somethings missing I'm sorry!
