New (but Old) Mr2 Owner

[Fred_Bear]

Hi All,

I have recently inherited a black 93 MKII MR2 Turbo from my son as he owed me money (don't they always) and had bought himself a new car. Unfortunately I got it with a damaged front and wing which have been replaced but it still need to be sprayed black.

Considering I am in my early 50's and have a bad back the MR2 seat and interior is remarkably comfortable and it is nice to drive. The ride can vary between harsh and teeth rattling depending on the road surface so that is one thing I need to sort out when funds allow. It is pretty much standard (I think) apart from 17'' Stage I wheels but if I ever have the money I would add some aftermarket bits such as change the exhaust etc.

Regards

No way!!.. Stock wheels look rubbish!!..

Looks very clean from the picture.

i agree stock wheels do look like crap. but they may help the ride slightly...

As for the ride... beautiful. Very clean...

Rev 5 wheels are ok, strong and light too, and the correct staggered offset, which many aftermarket wheels I've seen fitted to MR2s are not.
