well my search continues , that red mr2 looks ok on pics but in the flesh the bottom of both doors were rotton also the engine bay was full of spiders webs and was beginning to rust due to storage for 18 months.It ran well enough on tick over though , didnt overheat or anything , just not what i am looking for , it had no tax or test and at only 950 quid may end up costing me the earth.
