I just got myself one, now I take the long way home😊😂, what a dream to drive, even after a hard days work it put a big smile on my face😊, superb handling, very unrated car, thanks for the review
Welcome to the club, they really are amazing fun. I'm on my second, but it has been in the garage on axle stands for a couple of years. I must sort it out. Your U turn gives the impression of a large turning circle, but it is actually the smallest I know of due to the lack of engine in the front, allowing the wheels to turn further (I'm guessing).
Blown head gasket. Came from a friend for £200 including a Haynes manual! Rare vehicle here too so I'm a little nervous about sourcing parts but the engine work should be fairly straightforward as it's mostly Mitsubishi.
@@buccabubuccabu would love to see some photos - I'm only down the road in Lincolnshire. Not a massively difficult fix - I may even have a HG kit in stock!
Enjoyed the video, Nice little beastie❤ Your CameraAmy did a good job. It’s rather cramped for you, can see why you sold her. Love to see a comparison drive in the MR2 MK1a.
Congratulations on the use of fewer rather than less. There are so few of us around. I punched someone yesterday who was talking about less pigeons. Someone's got to educate.

Excellent! And thanks 👍
Bought mine a few weeks back. I love it.
Enjoy it

Many thanks 😊 hope you get yours back on the road soon
I have 3. All run, but 2 are driveable. Fun cars.
Which is your favourite?
@@JonCoupland The one with the 2ZZ Swap for sure.
Remember to put your windows down before raising or lowering a soft top.
Yes! Good advice
Hi from Norwich in England. Just joined your channel as I also have a :(broken) Proton Saga in the shed but my other car is a ...Mk3 MR2 (2003)!
Hi Ian. Welcome to the channel and thanks for your comment
What's wrong with the Saga 😭

My roof goes down and locks inplace simply by pushing it back 😂😂😂. No need to get out or turn around!!
Yes I think this one needed some TLC in hindsight 🤣👍
Good afternoon Jon & Amy. Merry christmas
Merry Christmas 🎄
Nice one Jon, Seasonal greetings ! Mark.
And to you and yours Mark 😊

Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it
Yes ... A bit cramped 😜
Manual hood is a plus in my book. Fewer expensive things to go wrong.
Yes that's a good way of looking at it ☺️

@@user-nl2gy4ux7r Punching someone for using the wrong word is idiotic.
@@MrWillywillmore No, he was the idiot, hence the punch. Please reread, paying closer attention.
At least you only touch the steering wheel with your legs. It could be worse!
That's a good point! 🤣
Sooooo....Did you sell the MR2 in the end....😂
I certainly did. It's found a lovely new home in Ireland AND it funded the Rover 75 project 😊
Nice car but probably also too small for me 😅
Which is why it had to go :(
I’m 80kg and 175cm tall and mine fits like a glove but It would be snug for bigger guys than me
60mph in 5th? 3rd gear is much more fun!
😜 you are right
60 in 2nd
