Hi all.
After my first viewing and test drive of a MK1 last night, I came to the quick conclusion that Yes, I do want to be the owner of a MK1, But I want it to be in A1 condition.
So, here I am posting this request hoping that someone here is willing to sell me their MR2 or knows of someone who is.
My criteria are as follows.
MUST be in excellent, A1 condition - I expect the body work to be free from rust, dents and scratches. I don't mind if this is due to restoration or the car has been pampered throughout it's life.
Milage - 100,000+ miles is not an issue if the car has been maintained to the highest of standards and any mechanical work such as engine/gearbox rebuilds are well documented. Number of owners is irrelevant.
Original - After market body kits and heavy tuning mods are not desirable features. SS exhaust systems are acceptable and maybe 'after market' alloy wheels, depending on style, although original is better.
Model, Body Types and Colours - With the high stands I require in overall condition, I fully expect to have to compromise in these areas.
MK1a or MK1b are both acceptable.
My first preference in body style is Tin Top, then Sun Roof and lastly T-bar.
Red will always be my first choice, any other colour second.
Interior wise, Cloth is my first choice, Leather my second.
I'm based in Newcastle-Under-Lyme and willing to travel anywhere within the UK for the right car.
Thanks for taking the time to read this wanted ad'. All advice in finding my own MR2 is welcome.
Contact me on Paul.G.Rhodes@Virginmedia.com or message me on here.
Cheers, Paul.
