When it comes to value for money motoring in a modern two-seater classic, the Toyota MR2 ticks a lot of boxes. Fitted with a 2.0 litre 16 valve engine which is mid-mounted sets the base for an excellent handling car.
It is available with a solid roof, sunroof or the much cooler option of a T-bar roof. The T-bar is one of the more desirable models to choose but also one of the rarer options. Luckily for you, this model is the T-bar, which also has the correct/original bags included to store the roof panels. Inside, the MR2 is a nice place to be, and quite similar to other Japanese cars of the 1990s, unless, like this vehicle, a UK spec car, it came with the optional premium leather package.
With everything going for it, this is a fantastic opportunity... T-bar and premium leather, it also has had just one owner until 2018 and has a full-service history. Fc2K0Q2f41TdbxYfDbEF1gpYo7yYwBksjnwXlITj.jpg1.32 MB
