Buying Mr2 Mk3/mrs

[Yella Fella]

Alright,

Just to check a few little things when buying one... for the UK MR2 mk3, its best to get 2002+ because of the pre-cat/oil issues?

I'm looking to really getting the jap version MRS, was there a similar issue to the UK with the said issues? Also for those that have the MRS, was it easy to clear issues with CEL lights? If so is there any garages (preferably mod ones) that deal with this near Milton Keynes?

One last thing, has anyone with a an MRS had their car on LPG rather than normal UK based tax?

Not sure how much or what tax band this car is on. Plus when putting a turbo or engine transplant, how much that will affect insurance/tax ;)

Thanks.

Hi and welcome to the club

I can't really offer much more advice than Mike did on the other forum ;)

Although the only thing that differs in my beliefs is that the pre-cat issue is just a result of engine failure and not a contributor but there will always be a debate regarding this ;)

One more thing, the Jap import doesn't have a LCD (Limited Slip Differential)
