Description
This is my own car and has gone through an extensive restoration over the past 2 years of ownership. It is garaged over the winter months so I have plenty of time to get jobs done (the complete list of work detailed below).
I now have a different job (to that which I had when I bought the MR2) which involves driving 400+ miles per week, this has somewhat taken the fun out of driving and as a result my MR2 does not get used very often at all, as a result I have decided to sell my MR2 and let somebody else enjoy her.
I looked at many Mk3 MR2s all over the UK before buying this one, many were tatty and in need of lots of work, this one was already good but the work I have done on it has taken it from good to "like new" inside and out.

She drives as good as she looks and she wants for nothing.
