1992 Toyota MR2 Mk2 – 46, 500 miles – Tropical Blue – Properly SortedHere’s a cracking 1992 Toyota MR2 Mk2 with just 46, 500 miles and a huge amount of recent work already done, so you can get in and enjoy it straight away. Finished in original Tropical Blue and recently treated to a full respray, it looks every bit as good as it should. Mechanically, it’s had a full engine rebuild along with a skimmed head, new starter motor, radiator, ECU and ignition system, oil and water pumps, timing belt, and battery. Over £12, 000 has been spent over the last couple of years getting this car into top shape. It also has a great setup of tasteful mods, including a full Mongoose 3-inch exhaust, K&N performance air filter, and Samco silicone hoses. It sounds right, looks right, and drives the way a proper MR2 should. A rare chance to buy a low-mileage Mk2 that’s already had the money spent on it and is ready to be enjoyed. This MR2 was originally bought by my son as his first real project car. He had always loved the Mk2 shape and the whole mid-engine sports-car idea, and he wanted something he could work on, learn with, and build into a proper classic that he could genuinely enjoy every day. We set out to find a low-mileage, honest example, and when we found this one in Tropical Blue, it felt like the perfect starting point. Over the last couple of years, my son has poured time, care, and money into making it the best version he could. The aim was never to overdo it, but to create a car that sounded and felt great while staying reliable and usable. The car has now been a constant part of my son’s life. He’s enjoyed days out, short runs, and showing it to friends and family. He recently moved into his own flat and, to help fund his house costs, has made the difficult decision to sell it. He’s genuinely devastated to be parting with it, but it’s a choice he’s made to make his next step possible. The new owner will be able to get straight into the enjoyment phase, rather than spending time and money fixing it up.• A car you can rely on – Thanks to the rebuild and the list of new components, the engine is tight and dependable. It’s ready for regular use, club runs, days out, and weekends away.• A true driver’s car – The mid-engine layout gives the MR2 that special balance and feel. It’s light, sharp, and rewarding, with a steering feel and chassis that make every drive interesting.• Great to look at and stand out – The low mileage, the quality of the respray, and the careful preparation mean this MR2 will look great at shows, meets, or just as a beautiful car coming out of a storage unit.• A growing classic – As more Mk2s are lost to rust, crashes, or neglect, a clean, low-mileage, well-built example becomes increasingly rare. The new owner will have something that’s not just fun to drive, but also something that future buyers will appreciate. This MR2 was bought and built with a real purpose: to create a classic that could be enjoyed every day. That’s exactly what it is. The new owner will be taking over a car that’s already been prepared, sorted, and loved, and can now carry that story forward.
