Description
1988 Toyota MR2 Mk1 AW11, finished in original white with the blue velour interior... An absolutely fantastic running car, no expense spared to keep it running, as a daily driver! Hence the mileage... which will continue to rise as i use it at weekends.
I am the 5th keeper, the previous 4 were the same family, swapped through a couple of generations but maintained impeccably throughout... FSH, lots of receipts, including the most recent:
04/ 2025 Repainted 4 wings/ door jambs
09/ 2024 New Windscreen
07/ 2024 Cambelt replacement @156, 661
02/ 2023 Full service @156, 069
01/ 2022 Service/ minor welding @155k
04/ 2021 New battery
It has been serviced, EVERY year while being mot'd... What ever it needed plus oil changed, every single year!! Nothing has been left out, hence why it runs so beautifully!
I had an engine change in 2003 and a gearbox change in 2007... The car needs nothing mechanically and i wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere on the planet!
Everything works, lights, windows, mirrors, cassette radio, electric antenna... flawless clutch/ gearbox shifting, no fluid leaks or hot running problems... just an effortless driving car, that is super reliable and fires up first turn of the key, always!
Three sets of keys, owners pack, loads of receipts...
Any bad bits include:
Small crack in centre of dashboard.
Digital clock doesn't work.
Couple of small rust scabs, one on a headlight cover and one either side of the rear window.
Gearstick leather boot a bit crispy.
Ash tray lid missing.
Area above front spoiler a bit pitted.
Badges are a bit old but original.
That really is about it!!
It has 5 matching new Hancook tyres, all 4 wheels appear to have been refurbed recently, it's not a concourse car, because it's been a daily driver, so has scope for improvement... however, you can take it to any show and be proud! Yes there are lower mileage ones available, but this one has been maintained amazingly throughout and can be enjoyed from the off.
