The MR2 was an unsung hero of handling. Great little car.


Absolutely. I think Toyota pulled something rather special out of the bag
when they came up with the MR2. The basic suspension design was by an
ex-Lotus guy, with final tuning by Toyota. They're rapidly becoming
classics, now, especially since it's looking like Toyota aren't continuing
the line after the Mk3 (unless they have something up their sleeves -
another hard top, I hope).

It's done 55K miles. Just think - for the same money, I could have had a 55K
miles Ford Mondeo. Phew! Glad *that* didn't happen!
