A regrettable bargain lies herein:

White MR2 Mk1b - 1989
Tax and MOT until Sept off the top of my head.
82,000 miles!

It drives 'okay' - I use it for a short commute daily, but needs some attention:
Front n/s wing needs replacing - someone slid into me in the snow, leaving a nice graze, which extends to the corner of the bumper as well.[/*:m:1ulfi19n]
Front o/s wing is beginning to rust[/*:m:1ulfi19n]
Front o/s ARB bush and bracket have semeingly disappeared. Assume they got caught and torn off on a pothole.[/*:m:1ulfi19n]
For some reason it has an 'a front bumper, not 'b.[/*:m:1ulfi19n]
Minor rust on both rear arches[/*:m:1ulfi19n]
N/s drivers door paint is flaking[/*:m:1ulfi19n]
Exhaust it leaking, but that's an easy fix[/*:m:1ulfi19n]
Teardrop alloys have good tyres, but could do with a refurb[/*:m:1ulfi19n]

That's most of it; rest of the car is OEM MR2..... engine runs very well, interior is in decent condition. Ultimately, it's a 21 year old car. The only thing which requires urgent attention is the ARB.


I'd prefer it to stay within the club so it's currently only for sale here; take it off my hands for £750.

MMMmmm I would, but what with being in the middle of buying a house as well as working silly hours 6 days a week, I haven't the time to do it.

Make me an offer........... I can only say no! Or yes.... :)

Right - it's definitely going, so make me an offer. Needs to be either towed/trailered, or driven stuck in gear (unless you're handy at changing gear without a clutch).

I've had on tentative offer, just wondering if there's any more interest?

hi rob, i'm interested in the engine and gearbox, assuming the clutch is good and it is only the master cylinder that has had it.
