- I Bought A MK3 Toyota MR2 Roadster - Full Review & Walkaround
I bought another Toyota MR2, this time a 6 Speed W30. 2003, covering just 41,600 miles from new.
Sadly this belonged to a gent who passed away a year or so back. It was his pride and joy and has sat ever since his passing. His widow (a friend of mine) popped it up for sale recently and i just couldn't say no.
MOT has expired so i havent been able to take it for a spin yet, in this video lets take a look around it at some of the features, any issues it may have and discuss its future!

I have black wheels on two of my cars, I feel attacked 😂
Personal preference 🤣
Nice video! I've had a roadster for about a year now and really enjoyed the experience, they are great value and drive really well too. There's quite a nice little community around them (mainly facebook groups, mr2roc and mr2dc), so finding some oem wheels etc. will be no bother.
Thank you
I've actually now sourced some wheels so fingers crossed they will be on soon
I've been in the MR2 Drivers Club since 1991 definitely worth joining lots of regular meets.

Nice Jon! Really enjoyed this video. I am looking forward to seeing what your father finds when he takes a look at it!
That video is coming Wednesday 😀
Lovely looks great, the colour is Sable Grey.
Ah brilliant thank you
I don’t like black wheels either but those look ok. Sort of suit the car.
They are growing on me!
I ran one for a while as a company car back in the day, I could get my laptop bag under the bonnet not much behind the seats and the rest in the passenger seat/footwell. Lots of fun, great handling but apparently time has shown that the 2nd cats can disintegrate and get ingested into the engine so check that they’ve been removed or it might be expensive! Otherwise a desirable little sports car as a toy, enjoy.
I believe this only affects the prefacelift model 👍☺️
@@JonCoupland Can happen on any up until very last few made late 2005 on, there was a revision in the pistons on the facelift but only a partial fix. Yours has an aftermarket manifold fitted so the pre-cat breakdown won't be an issue for you. Watch out for excessive oil consumption though and change the oil every few thousand miles to try and prevent the oil consumption issue ever developing.
Those alloys are a hate crime
Yes they are horrible aren't they. Thankfully replaced with the originals 🙂😁
Pounds or dollars, yes I am jealous about what you paid for it.
GBP
What wheel size are those
I believe (from the top of my head) 17
That does seem to be rare colour, most I see are a lighter silver or red.
Nice though.
Yes it's a lovely metallic grey
I miss auto aerials
They are brilliant
Until they break 🤣
Lol bro explained where the fuel filler cap and engine bay is 🫣 and your roof ain’t great because you have “flappy ears”
Yes yes I did :) - because some people clearly aren't MR2 experts like yourself Alex
Im still watching but some things are pretty logic and doesn’t really need explaining I think
also normally you open the visor at the same time to take the roof down instead of when driving :)
Aircon was a option , some do have aircon by the way
Well good video, in the end I guess you don’t like mr2’s just wanted one to try
