WANTED:- MR2 mk1 IRELAND...

[Tsporter]

Hi lads, i just registered here after being referred by lads on mr2.ie....

I'm after a weekend mk1 for a while now but haven't found one suitable. So if anyone knows of one for sale(in Ireland) gimme a shout!!

I'm after something in fairly good nick that will pass an NCT without much work, and I prefer originality... Oh and i'm in Kildare but will travel anywhere in Ireland for the right car.

Thanks
B

Just to give you some ads to look at, here is a list of every mk1 for sale at the moment in Ireland:-

http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/vintagecars/2625405 - two-tone

http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/vintagecars/2886611 - looks pretty rough

http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/vintagecars/3219203 - looks really nice but its in northern ireland and to register it here would be +€900 so over my budget of <2k

http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/vintagecars/3220960 - again looks clean but over budget with registration

http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/vintagecars/3300308 - looks rough and poorly resprayed...and a dreamer at that price. Look at the poor white one in the background!!

http://www.buyandsell.ie/motors/cars/kildare/toyota-mr2-1600-petrol-1985-2# - mk1a very clean and expensive!

I'd love to hear your opinions on the above cars!

p.s. Some great info on the site, i've sent hours reading so far and many to come...

Hi,
I am in Wales and i have 3 Mk1 MR2s for sale.
1 is a red Sunroof model with 144,000 miles. Cloth interior, MOT expired last week. But it is a good honest car.
2. is a red sunroof model with 132,000 miles, Cloth interior, MOT expired a few months ago, but the car is in very good original condition.
3. is a Mica Blue T-Bar with perfect Black leather interior, and just 62,000 genuine miles. 19 previous MOT certificates 12 months current MOT. Totally original condition, with original stereo, etc etc etc. VERY rare chance to own such a unique MR2. I have not decided if i want to keep this as my own car to take to shows etc. It nees a little bit of cosmetic work to make perfect. This one is not cheap ;0)
Let me know what you are interested in.
Kind regards, Neil

Bump, unfortunately I forgot about this forum for a while. I was on the lookout for a mk1 for a long time and looked at a few but couldnt find one that I was happy with. In the meantime I picked up a rev3 NA which has been great but the fire inside still burns for a mk1! :-)

So the hunt is back on!
