My MK3 MR2 is for sale at the end of the month. It's a manual facelift 04 plate in sable grey. 78000 on the clock. It has a leather interior. The bodywork is in excellent condition - I recently had it professionaly detailed/mopped and it came up like new. The roof is in good condition and doesn't leak. Heated rear glass is perfect.

I bought it in March of this year to do a few Euro road trips in which it has done faultlessly - it's a lovely car to drive.

It has recently been serviced (at 76500 miles) and has had new discs and pads all round and new rear Toyo tyres in the last few months, as well as new anti-roll bar droplinks. I have also recently fitted new front foglights, Bosch Aerotwin wipers and it's had 2 of the 3 O2 sensors replaced with genuine Denso parts.

It has the optional TTE sports exhaust fitted which makes the 1ZZ engine sound sporty as opposed to a horrible high pitched clattery thing as it is standard. A nice deep note at idle with plenty of burble and the odd pop and bang, without being anti social. I have changed the front badge to a blue MR-S one, and stuck a white MR-S decal on the wind deflector. I fitted Yaris fan-style washer jets. I still have the original badge and washer jets which will be in the glovebox.

I have fitted a Grom Android/USB MP3 kit to the stock head unit, which also functions as a Bluetooth hands free kit. So you can stick your tunes on a memory stick or stream them wirelessly from your phone (as well as sat nav directions) and it all works seamlessly with the standard stereo.

It has the standard Toyota McGuard locking wheel nuts, and the stock toolkit. It has an unused space saver front wheel, and I have moved the alarm siren so that you can invert the wheel in the frunk and get more luggage in (or ditch it completely for some tyre weld and gain loads more space). Stock Toyota alarm w/remote central locking is present, I have both original remote keys and the grey valet key, as well as the metal tag you need to get more keys made.

The car has a full dealer service history up until 2009. I have receipts for everything I've done with it since March but there is a gap before my ownership. It doesn't burn a drop of oil (level hasn't moved on the dipstick since its service, and has had the precats removed when I bought it.

Last but not least, it's got a brand new rear subframe - this is another issue with the MK3 which you will not need to worry about with this one. Of course, it had a full laser wheel alignment after the subframe was done.

There's a bit of wear on the driver's seat. There are a couple of small stone chips on the bonnet. These are to be expected on a 78000 mile 10 year old car.

Tax runs out at the end of this month so it will have 6 months on it. MOT until November.

There is a luggage rack in some of these photos - that is not included in the sale.

We are about to have another heatwave in August, this will be a great car to be in when it hits, or to take to JAE :thumleft:

The eagle-eyed amongst you will notice some advisories on the MOT. These are corroded front coil springs (a common thing on the MK3 - the coating peels off), corroded PS hose (fixed it) and that it has undertrays fitted. Well duh!
