It was up for sale a few months back it has a ct26 turbo in it the front bumper is broke and the side skirts seem to be for a different car check on adverts the withdrawn section you will see a few more pics,rang the guy today about it, he says failed nct due to drop link and exhaust leak, to be honest i was thinking the same but the guy does have little info on the engine

Guys can we also put the ones in here, that are being sold by time wasters and liars ? Before i bought mine i went to Athy to check one out the guy said it's immaculate and when i went there the car was a mess. I wasted my time and money so i think it would be nice to give heads up to other people looking for a MR2 ?
P.S It's still on sale as an "immaculate" on adverts.ie

Agreed.ive went to view quite a few mr2's over the last few years which were advertised as immacculate,mint.engine and gearbox 100 % percent etc.. and a lot of em turned out to be absolute buckets.i honestly don't know how people do that like.theres a lot of dishonesty among sellers in this country i find compared to the uk they are usually good for letting you know any problems with the car in there ads

Wow that's weird, its like I've seen my car a few months into the future 
This is exactly what I'm looking at doing to my own ->
Side-skirts, Leather seats with a red interior, TRD Clocks, Delete the front fogs, HID's, Red door inserts, Sports ECU...
I'd swear if it had a black center panel it was the car I have in mind |

that 95 does look like a pretty good deal, is it a rev3 turbo though?

yeah i know 95 is a rev3 but it could have been an n/a in the past and then got a rev2 turbo put into her, its a very good deal if its a rev3 turbo and all them mods aswel. im not surprised its gone that fast.

That car came up for sale a few weeks back and i rand yerman and told him id be up the next day for it.10 minutes later i get a txt saying sorry a fella just came and took it and it was marked as sold.
Spotted it again last nite and checked the phone number and it was the same one.so yerman never sold the car for whatever reason.he could have just done the same thing again.there's something fishy about it.might not be what it's made out like in the pics..

Nothing fishy about it.
A guy I work with owned it. He said he put it up a few weeks ago but had a change of heart and took it down, didn't know he said he sold it though.
I done a deal with him with my car and some cash less the mesiters.
I'll stick up a thread in a bit

Ah its understandable, it was a silly thing to do in fairness, either it was sold or it wasn't.

Yeah it's cheap but not worth paying the tax on it in my opinion. Only use for that would be if the shell was immaculate and you had a decent engine and gearbox to go into it.

Are the autos/3SFE's that bad?

Ya, as Tsporter said, it's most likely a 3SFE, as they didn't come with fogs and rear spoiler, looks like someone stuck a rev3 spoiler on it. The pic of the tach shows that it redlines @ 6000RPM, the 3SGE engine in the MR2 redlines @ 7000. 120bhp (assuming they are all still working  ) not exactly what you would call quick!! |

The automatic 3sfe arrangement is quicker to 60 than the same 3sge of the same year. Not so bad really, it has more torques I believe.
