as per title, anyone own up to owning one? good/bad?
(and pls refrain from saying buy a honda s2000 )
a pic to jog your memory
Mate of mine bought one for his wife, Toyota reliability handled well enough
Good Donor vehicles i've heard, oh and theres a 750mc mr2 series thats all i know sorry and if you can buy a s2000, then why even bother thinking about an mr2?
Needs a 3.5L Lexus v6 (and yes they have been fitted in an MR2 mk3) ;-)

At the time we were in need of rear calipers they were a dealer only part on the mk3 mr2
Fantastic car,totally reliable during ownership,very capable car to drive and well sorted in every area.No I dont cut hair it was my daughters.Always reminded of an elise but comfortable and better screwed together.Loads of aftermarket gear if you want to go that route
I had one for a year or so.
If you do get one keep the roof drains clear and make sure they are properly sealed, mine were not and a heavy shower resulted in 2" of water
sloshing round!
Great fun on the track too.
Great car but i always wished i had gone for an mx5
lovely car ive put a 3VZFE engine 3.0 into the mk3. few issues but nothing too difficult. couldnt fit the water bottle in the rear so that was a pain. rest ok.
