The MR2
The mid-engined Toyota MR2 AW11. Its a great car even in standard form. Fitted with Toyotas screaming 4A-GE, 1600 cc, twin cam, 16v engine which produces an impressive 125 bhp. Its enough to propel the car from 0 to 60 in around 7.5 seconds and on to a top speed of approximately 125 mph. Great handling in a nice compact package.

News 22nd June 2003 We're currently renovating
the bodyshell on the MR. The car is 17 years old now so we can forgive it
for being a little rusty. The rear arches are being
replaced with new metal repair panels which we've had specially made for the
job. The panels are an inch wider than the standard arches which should
allow us to fit wider wheels and tyres in the future. We've also repaired
a few holes under the rear quarterlights and we'll be moving onto the front
valance next.
