Toyota MR2 Mk1 1989 Yellow - 111k miles - £795 ono - ** SOLD **

[tommundy]

Hi all,

I’m slimming down my fleet and so have for sale my banana yellow car! :) This car was my daily driver for nearly 8 months and did me a great service, but since I got my V6 it has seen very little use and has been stored off the road since the MOT lapsed last summer.

Basic details are below:

111,382 miles
Registered late November 1989, so one of the later ones

Positives

New radiator
New alternator
New battery
Short shifter kit fitted
Nice and original
B pillars and sills appear good
Bright and different colour – turns heads (also changed on the log book)
Original stereo in working order


Negatives

Bouncing idle – I’ll try to bleed the coolant before the sale, which should resolve this
Damage to driver’s seat bolster
No MOT – hasn’t failed an MOT, but was just left to lapse as I was using my new car
Bottom of A pillars are a bit crusty, but there is metal there
A few bits and pieces needed to finish off the interior
Has 3 aftermarket alloys and 1 standard one
No service history before my ownership
Was broken into, so has had some replacement glass, fitted professionally. However, I only noticed today that the steering column is slightly twisted (or at least the cowling is). The car drove fine, but I will take this into account with the price (they can be picked up from eBay for under £30 delivered)
Slight nod of the gear stick in 5th, but it doesn't pop out, so never bothered me too much

So, all in all, it’s never going to be a show queen, but would make someone a great daily driver or tinkering project.

Sold to me! Very much looking forward to being involved with the club. I no absolutely nothing about these cars- just always loved them and wanted one. I will be needing alot of advise I am sure!

Welcome Crossle, looks like it'll be a great project car.

Holy yellows! This will be a stonker of a car. Those a pillars are eeeasy (ish) to weld up once you get the wing and door off.
