Mission: Nice'n'shiny (and fully functional)

Compared to the MR2 the Del Sol has at least some boot space. Of course it does not have a mid-engine and the Mk1 is for sure more of a beauty - but the Del Sol is still something to take home ;)
A MX-5 is totally out of question. I like the idea of a T-Bar or a hardtop like on the Del Sol - but no full convertible. And the hardtop on the MX-5 looks out of place me thinks. Also: It still is a hairdressers car :P
-
The Del Sol is even more of a hairdressers car and not a scratch on the MX5 in terms of, well, pretty much everything!
A CRX SiR would be a good choice though.

Ok, another impulsive shot in the dark, Nissan 200? Ps I only mentioned the Calibra as I had a 4wd one and the boot was big and 4 seats… mouth well and truly washed out! LOL
-
A 200 is a totally different class of car, and a far better one at that. If you can pick up a clean one then you're laughing.

went through the nissan coupe's// had a 100nx (crap)
had a 200sx (one of the best cars ive ever driven)
and unfortunately had a 300zx…. (huuuge mistake)200sx.. a nice clean one... can't go wrong!!

Well - I am pretty much decided now and was checking/keeping an eye on several MR2 Mk1s over the last 2 months. Also have a pretty detailed idea on what I want exactly - just have to find it and pick it up. Unfortunately there are not so many of them around so finding it is not quite as easy.
However - this time I am not in a rush to get a new car as my MX-3 is still running fine. Just hope I find the new car within the next 2 months as I don't want to miss those 3 days of summer.
-
Ok - looks like I've done it! Checked an other Mr2-Mk1 yesterday and as I was fairly happy with its condition we agreed on a price. Just sorting out the paperwork and hopefully I can pick it up tomorrow!
Which means my MX-3 will be up for sale soon. So if someone here is interested in a low-mileage (58k) 1.6l let me know.

I will always remember: It was a MX-3 that guided me into the light of Japanese Sports-car heaven - forever closing the doors of German-build boredom behind me ;)
-
lol MX3 was my first & second cars. I'll get another one day, when I'm bored of spinning these.
Jap > German.

Sorted tax and payment for the car this morning and had fun with it all day. Gave him a quick wash and two new rear tyres and then took my girlfriend out for a little ride and some diner. Damn that little beast is fun to drive! And it looks and sounds amazing! Of course there are a number of things to sort out (it is 23 years old!) but nothing that is urgent or stops me from using it.

Pics man pics!
-
Not the best pic, just a quick shot with the mobile:
Also: I already sold the MX3. Was a lot easier than I expected and am quite happy with the money I got for it. Means I now got a few pounds I can spend on my "new" car. First it needs a radio as there isn't one in. And then I will start to polish things up…

looks nice mate let's hope treat's you well :-D
