Toyota MR2 Sports 2d Auto (1993/L) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Lot of car for the cash.
Costs
Servicing is no different to my Fiesta Sport, fuel use is heavy on urban use though.

On the road
Driving
Tends not to be too 'pointy' due to no weight in the front, leading to vague steering into corners. Some tell me that power steering doesn't help this. It is light at the front end at motorway speeds too, which can take some getting used to.
Performance
A bit sleepy below 3000rpm, but the auto has a party trick; stick it in sports mode at 65 and floor it. See what happens!

Living with it
Reliability
Had a wheel bearing go at the back, thats all. Otherwise for a 12 year old car, brilliant, not missed a beat, touch wood!

This car DOES get attention!
Comfort
Comfy enough for me at 5ft 6, nice seats and minimum wind noise.
