Alright Cashy,

David here, I do believe I own your old MR2. You will be glad to hear in any case that she is being minded like a baby since I got her. She's had a full service, washed n waxed incessantly and just recieved a new pair of indicator lenses. Your more than welcome to have a look if ya fancy a trip down to Passage West sometime but if not then I'm sure I posted some pics on here recently enough.

As for anybody selling one...I'm afraid I only know of a guy in Carlow that was selling a 1990 n/a for 2300 euro. It looked nice alright but i'm not sure if it's still for sale or what...

Hi Cashy,

I don't know the guy personally, I think he's based in Carlow, but he seems a pretty sound fella, I was chatting away to him about his car. He sent me his mobile there and email address so I'll send you them in a pm.

Alright Cashy,

Fair play to ya, I was looking for a Mk1 for a while before I got your old one. I gave up because I couldnt find any decent ones, and any decent ones that were around were going for 3 or 4 grand. Can't wait to see the photos. Nice way to celebrate your birthday!
