Faults:

I have had the Toyota MR2 for six months and nothing has gone wrong so far.

General Comments:

This car is great to drive. Easy around corners and great grip on the road.

The car is greatly comfortable to drive, no matter what anyone else says, it is comfortable.

The Toyota MR2 may not be practical space wise, but no one would buy it for the practicality of space, but saying that I have shopped in it and am able to fit in my whole two weeks supermarket shop with ease!...

It is a fun car, gets the most amount of admiring looks from passer by's and even those in a Porsche or Jag can't help, but look!

Faults:

A hinge cover on the inside of the roof snapped off by accident. This was caused my catching my finger on it while retracting the soft top. First thoughts were that this would be easy to fix, but after visiting the local Toyota dealer and many subsequent phone calls it turned out that a whole new roof was required. A new roof was fitted, but since the dealer had never completed such a job before the roof was incorrectly installed. The mechanism jammed and bent. Another new roof needed to be fitted (again on Toyota Warranty). This time the dealer contracted the work to a local soft-top specialist. After a couple of months the second roof was installed. So far it has caused me no problems.

General Comments:

Apart from the issues that I've experienced with the roof, I can honestly say that the car is nothing short of fantastic.

Although the storage space is very limited, I often travel to London by myself in it with a Laptop computer and manage to get by without any problems.

Performance is great, 0-60mph in about 7.5 seconds. Also it's a perfect city car as it's small and accelerates quickly so you can easily get yourself out of difficulty. I can get 40 miles per gallon if the car is driven efficiently.

The car handles well. The Bridge stone tyres that it comes with are excellent although wear down quickly. The wheel alignment was badly adjusted on mine from new and the front tyres wore down after 12k miles. The rear tyres made 20k. The car now has Dunlop tyres on it and the handling is not as good, though still more than acceptable. The car is light and can be affected by high winds in the winter.

Faults:

Nothing has gone wrong with the car since new, not even any re-calls.

You just can't say fairer than that.

General Comments:

This is one quick car, think 0-60 in less than 8 seconds. It's great fun to drive too. Thankfully, the speed and fun doesn't take too much away from the comfort.

Light power steering, supportive seats and decent fuel economy (38mpg!) make this a nice everyday car to use.

The roof is very easy and quick to take down, plus it has a heated screen built-in!

It can be awkward to get in and out of the car, especially in car parks, but what fun!

Don't ever expect to be able to carry any more than a sports bag though, there is no boot, only storage boxes behind the seats...
