1992 Toyota MR2 GTS Turbo 2.0 turbo petrol from UK and Ireland
Faults:
Slight leak on the drivers side of the drainage hole on the roof, blocked up and leaking, apart from that nothing has gone wrong yet, only had it 6 days so we shall see.
Getting a good one can be a nightmare, mine is a Japanese import and you really should drive and see a few before you buy, don't buy a heavily modded one or you will be in problem city.
Most heavy modded Jap turbo's have been raced!
General Comments:
H O W F A S T !!!!!!!!!!!
Got the shock of my life when I first put my foot down, 1992 model is 225bhp, 1994 model is 248bhp, mine will do 0-60 in 5.8 and hits 158mph in standard form, but has larger wheels, performance exhaust and air filter, a real head turner, only thing I have against it is the fuel consumption. Driving easy and you can expect 300 miles out of a full tank at £36, drive like Satan on speed and you can expect 250 miles.
Faster than a Cossie, slower than the Enterprise.
This car is mad, get one as soon as you can.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Fuel consumption doesn't sound that bad :-)) I wack £50 in my Carlos Sainz every week and have never broken 300 miles on that... even driving like my grandmother!!
If any owners read this... how's the handling? I love cars that handle well, and have heard mixed things about the Mk2, so I'm going for a Mk1.
