For Sale: 1994 MR2 GT-S Turbo (Rev 3)

Major_Sarcasm · 10-19-2008, 02:03 PM

The Mrs has decided that she wants a change, so the MR2 Turbo is up for grabs. It's a very clean car, not perfect, but excellent generally for its year. Engine oil changes have been done regularly (by me) with Silkolene Pro-S 10W50 as recommended by Oilman. Filter changed at same time. Gearbox oil changed ~6000 miles ago.

The salient points of the car as follows:

Mileage calculations:
- KM when imported in 2002 = 60198 (converts to 37405 miles)
- Now reading 84337 (84337-60198=24139 miles since conversion to MPH)
- Current mileage therefore ~61544 miles (obviously not provable)
Manual 5-Speed
Revision 3 (the good one)
Climate control
Electric windows/mirrors
Aircon (works!)
Cat 1 Alarm with remote locking
Tax end Oct 08
MOT May 09
Pearlescent Green (looks almost black from certain angles, metallic green in sunlight)
New battery Aug 07
New Toyota/Bilstein struts (Feb 08)
8x18 Alujet Binno B1000 alloys in Dark Diamond finish (virtually unmarked)
Near-new front tyres (215x35x18)
Brand-new rear tyres (235x40x18)
Apexi Titanium single-exit exhaust (single exit rear panel fitted)
Blitz BOV
Running standard boost (always has to our knowledge)

Starts on the key every morning, rain or shine. Genuine car, no rust, clean as a whistle underneath, some minor stonechips. £3095 ono.

i am in Germany might be interested.. are you willing to work something out for shipping.

Major_Sarcasm · 10-19-2008, 04:10 PM

Are you sure? Surely it'll cost a fortune! I've never exported a car from the UK before, don't even know what's involved.

ridered882006 · 10-20-2008, 11:27 AM

i will try to find out whats involved with the whole process...i am stationed here and i would just need it here then the army will ship it back home for me if thats what i decide to end up doing later on down the road

Why not just drive somewhere and meet each other? Don't you guys have amazing transportation infrastructures capable of interconnecting the entire continent?

PS: Why are you letting your wife convince you to get rid of your BEAUTIFUL MR2?

JMR291 · 10-20-2008, 01:08 PM

You tell your wife NO! If I wasn't a poor college student financially burdened by a weakened U.S. economy and loan payments, I'd move to the UK just to be with that car. It's got low miles, hardly any interior wear, and sound body work. Please tell us she's not making you replace it with a mundane mobile...

I think you guys have the wrong end of the stick. It's her car!

Drex92NA · 10-20-2008, 08:55 PM

Does the UK connect to the US at all??

Cause i'll gladly make the trip to drive it back home. I'm just not all together with my geography!!!

Drex92NA · 10-20-2008, 08:56 PM

OH!!! And I think that you should tell your wife NO anyway!!!

Put your foot down man!!

£3095 ono. This needs to be gone!

miracleman89 · 11-12-2008, 02:44 AM

Just a heads up but they won't allow you to bring it back to the states! the only year you can bring back is a 91. I checked into it a while back before I bought the one I am fixing up!

Major_Sarcasm · 11-29-2008, 02:50 AM

Gonna have to give this away. Bad time to sell a performance car it seems. £2995
