2002 Toyota MR2 2.0 2dr

finished in black over black with black alloy wheels, this 1996 MR2 GT-S was imported from Japan in 2002. Turbocharged, it is similar to the UK-spec models but with added performance; with 245bhp on tap from the factory, it had 175bhp per tonne and a 0-60mph time of 6.5 seconds. Proving the adage that enough is never enough, this one has undergone further work to give it a mighty 300bhp when dyno-tested, making this a seriously quick car and one whose performance vastly exceeds that of the standard car. In the care of its second UK owner from 2007 , Auxiliary instruments include an A’pexi digital speedometer/rev counter and a separate boost controller, an SARD turbo timer, three TIM gauges for oil pressure, turbo boost, and water temperature, and a Parrot Bluetooth controller. There’s a Raid steering wheel too, plus an Alpine sound system with a Kenwood subwoofer mounted behind the passenger seat. There are several bills from well-known specialists including Fensport, Racelogic, Burton Power, Larkspeed, and Turbo Technics relating to the Toyota’s maintenance and performance modifications, including one for a new turbo. The work was too involved to detail here, so please do take the time to leaf through the invoices or, better still, make an appointment to pop along and take a look for yourself. But, the summary involves a rolling road session and around 323bhp at the flywheel and 318 bhp at the wheels. That should be enough, shouldn’t it? It also has its original Japanese maintenance handbook plus a few documents from its time in Japan.
