Hi guys, this is the second of my 2 MR2's I am putting up for sale. After these two that is it for the foreseable futre :( So here we go....

For those of you who may be unaware my name is Dafydd and I run a company called Superb Classics and Sports Ltd which specialises in selling mint condition MR2 Mk1's along with a few other models. I have been doing this successfully for the last 3 years but I have now decided to try my hand at something new, so this will be of the last MR2 for sale by myself for a while. More details on our website www.superbclassics.co.uk Here are the details of my UK MR2 with only 56,000 miles on the clock:

1988 Toyota MR2 Mk1 Supercharged, T-Bar, Mica Blue Metallic, Manual Gearbox

All parts fitted are GENUINE TOYOTA PARTS even down to the exhaust which still has all the stickers, heatsheilds and Cat present.
This is genuinely an incredibly rare opportunity to acquire not only an MR2 Mk1 with an amazing history and incredibly low mileage, but to buy a T-Bar Supercharged Model with this history.

This car is something very very special with a unique history. Stunning example, ready to show.


Brief History
Originally supplied to the Goodyear Tyre Company in Belgium by the Toyota Motor Co as a test car, arrived as 1 of 5 other Toyotas at that time but was the only MR2. Circa 1990, after testing was complete, the car was spotted by a freelance journalist, in storage, doing some work for Goodyear who fell in love with the car and bought it from them. It was treated to a set of 14/15” BBS alloys with Goodyear Tyres (homage?) then lived in Belgium until 1998 when he emigrated to the UK, the car came too. I still have the original polished wheels with Goodyear tyres, possibly the ones tested on the car.
He sold the car in his old age, circa 2008, to an enthusiast (mileage now around 25,000 miles) who has garaged the car only putting about 2,500 miles on it in dry use only. He has done a lot of service work on the car including: supercharger belt, timing belt, gearbox oil, supercharger oil, clutch slave cylinder, coolant with Toyota ForLife Red and put an immobiliser on it.
The car is in fantastic condition, attached are some photos of the rear wheel arch inside lips, this is how clean the rest of the underside of the car is No welding and no rust under the bodykit – I have checked!

Interior is immaculate and is the Blue Cloth Type. A custom made Leather Interior can be fitted if desired.

Impossible to find in this condition with such low miles.

The MOT was due next month so I sent the car for an MOT test. It passed with no advisories at all as expected. The car now has an MOT untill Aprill 2013.

Took her for a spin the day before the MOT test, so much fun! I'm very tempted to keep it in all honesty.
