BEAMS VVTi MR2

[Daggernite]

Mr2's are pretty fun cars with good body styling I think. My mate just got rid of his and even though he sold it, he loved it to bits.

and yes the MR2 is a sports car, but its depends whos definition your listening to. Its definatly not a city runabout is it.

I'm just pulling Johns leg

I drove an MR2 some years back - all it was crying out for was more power - but otherwise a great package.

If it's the JDM engine i'm thinking of, it should be 2.2L and it's the same one they used in some race Supras for weight management. It's a very strong block, but MR2's are a bitch to work on. Good luck..

TransAm, are you set on having an N/A MR2? I don't know what year they stopped bringing the Turbo MR2 into the U.K. (1995 in USA), but that would definitely be in your price range, and that turbo motor will easily make you some more power...

Although both of those N/A versions are veery nice looking!

I never thought you was been serious, I know all too well you enjoy having a laugh and joke on here and half your posts are whitty but in good nature .

My personal thoughts on the MR2 is, they have good looks and are very low and give you a nice sporty feel. The downside (and this is just a personal thing so it means nothing really) is when you are driving in one in a spirited way down a country lane, you always tend to remeber the bad things you hear about them been tail happy and spinning out on you. Makes you alittle nervous, but thats just me been a chicken I guess. My mate who owned it always complained about it feeling like you had lack of grip over the front wheels. But his was the 1991 model, and I think MR2's had there suspension revised in 1994 or something to avoid the oversteer and give more grip.

OH RC I forgot, I knew they was something to tell you. Theres a MR2 I pass every day, and the owner is abit crazy, hes tuned his engine to 530bhp and thats not including the nos he has, its a insane machine. Just abit ricey But if you want power you cant complain.
