Hi guys,

I have seen pics of my ride floating about here recently so i thought i may as well sign up and give you the real deal :D

here are some more pics of my ride..... sadly, some of the bits shown have now been removed and more will be removed over the coming weeks as i am stripping her and selling her on for a supra maybe.

and more

Damn that makes me want a 2 again! :ffs:

Very nice - except one tiny tiny thing spoils it a little for me - that bad Fast Car Badge...

Out of interest how much you selling it for?

[shaf2000]

hi mate,

yeah i had to stick that Badge on becos the dash has got some glue marks on it and i needed to cover them up (... not successfully tho)

once it's stripped, it's going for 3-3.5k

Wow - less than I thought - it's very nice - good work.

[BLOODUK]

WOW NOW that i like

[Fizz]

Easy now Shaf...

You seem to be getting everywhere these days!...

Hows tricks bro?

[shaf2000]

hehehehe :P

how does it look bro, my beast is falling to pieces

[qwertyuiop]

If I was allowed, or could find a decent insurance company - I would probably buy that car.

[BLOODUK]

Only thing i dont like is the inside it looks too pink , might need some fluffy dice

But the rest of the car well what can i say simply amazing

[qwertyuiop]

Agreed Blood, I would probably make the inside silver and black.

Wasn't that a show car Shaf?

[CraigT]

Thats one stunning car.

Good choice in wheels

[houston]

i see there`s not much chance of you being able to move your seat back, the install looks very tight and loud! nice one

[Jimlad]

hi mate.. welcome to the club.. nice motor btw.

I've spoken to yourself a few times in the past actually. Think I bought my rev5 spoiler form yourself.

[Rash@R.A.Motors]

nice looking mota their mate...

Rash.

[qwertyuiop]

Now we just need to photoshop it in caribean blue, im also liking black, super white and silver.

Only joking Rash.

yeah i could of gone the silver and black route but that would of made it look like every other mr2.... i wanted something different.... and i like red/ pink

it's not a show car as such, i have taken it to a few events but as it is my everyday car as well, im not too keen to draw too much attention to it.... altho the ICE is pretty loud :D

hi jim, yeah i remember chatting to you previously and yes, you did buy the spoiler from me on eBay :D

i remember the pics you emailed to me of your ride..... it looks great. keep up the good work :)

thanks for all the comments guys.... you dont have to worry about the interior anymore as within a few weeks it will all be back to boggo standard again :)

[qwertyuiop]

Hey dude, I got nothing wrong with the interior - honestly I think it looks an awesome car, just suggesting what I may try... I'm still pretty new to MR2's, so don't take my word as final. If I could find an insurer that was willing to insure me at a reasonable rate - or at all on a turbo (I'm 19), I'd buy that thing off you in a flash.

Out of curiosity Shaf - what do you wash/polish/wax your car with - that motor is gleaming.

[shaf2000]

no worries mate. i couldnt get a decent price to insure the tubby until i was 25..... even with a full 5 year no claims :o

just gave it a quick wash with the turtlewax car shampoo..... it always comes out gleaming like that after any form of quick wash luckily :D

i just need to add that the interior is darker red than that.... it just came out a little pink in the pics :o

[qwertyuiop]

I thought so, I've seen pics of your car before - remember? I asked a ton of questions. The little touches are great - like the speedhut dials.

Oh well, I can't have a turbo... at least I can still have a T-bar - and hopefully I can get it in top condition.

Shaf, what other colours would you have considered? Any that really add that super car look like the red you have right now?

[qwertyuiop]

Also, if you compare you signature pics to the ones posted above, your signature ones are slightly different in colur - slightly darker.

[BLOODUK]

i just need to add that the interior is darker red than that.... it just came out a little pink in the pics :o

Hehe well thats good cause if you look at the rear of the seats they look like pink silk

ooo suits you sir :P

[shaf2000]

Also, if you compare you signature pics to the ones posted above, your signature ones are slightly different in colur - slightly darker.

yeah, it's unusual but the car always comes out a different colour when it's pictured. it's in-between the red in my sig pic and the red shown in the posted pics.... if that makes sense :)

bit like this

other colours i have considered are the estoril blue type colour and yellow. yellow will get noticed regardless of what you do or dont put on it. but if you do put a bodykit on it in yellow, it will look awesome. blue is just a mad colour, altho it wont show off the curves as much because it is a dark colour.

if you're going for a bodykit, go for a light colour.

Hi Shaf.

Love your car mate. Saw it at Japfest and on IMOC many moons ago (when you said you'd never sell it ). It's why I bought mine mate. Bit of inspiration I guess. :D

Sorry to hear you're selling it tho' :(

God luck with the new project mate.
