I've been offered a swap for one of these for a Civic 1.4 and I'm just wondering what they are like to own and run and how they are on juice currently in the Civic I'm getting 250miles to a tank (Doesnt matter what way I drive it the things an alco ) also will it be hard to insure at 19 with a full license and 2 yrs NCB

LOL it always cracks me up when people compare cars to how many miles to a tank they get.

Why?like I just want to know how many miles I would get to a tank now I know comparing a 1.3 to a 2l is like comparing chalk and cheese but my Civic is just an alco I dont really mind a car drinkin like its going out of fashion went it has a bit of power but want is ****** me off about the Civic is thing has got no power I was thinking of actually going into the convent down the road asking for sister Mary and tieing a rope to her knickers and see could the civic actually pull them off

The MR2 drinks petrol like its it thinks it's a competition. You will pay through the nose for insurance at 19. Rear wheel drive and mid engined so lots of fun in the wet!

If you can afford to run one then get it. If not then wait till you are 21 and get a turbo version.

Because errrm, cars have different sized tanks??

My old man's S class does about the same amount of miles to a tank as a corsa.

The S class costs over £100 to fill up the corsa... about £35? £40?

Gotta love it.

G-Limited are imports, so will be harder on insurance. MPG they are okay.

If it's an early one it'll be very old and tired by now. Most also have had the wheels swapped to something not staggered which buggers up the handling.

They are twitchy, snappy and a general nightmare. Expensive to maintain, not quick and have a bad chavvy image now days.

And "yes" I'd have one over a 1.4 Civic.

That's why we love MR2's.
