Well, an MR2 that massively failed its MOT, and £150 notes on the suspension.
Its a 136k, 2 owner, 1.8 16v corrado.
Everything is stock except the G60 BBS's and the lowered suspension. she has a fully stamped book and still pulls like a valver should, even all the MFA works!!
Only thing i've done is drilled the airbox to allow the k-jet to breath better.
Plans are to sort the bodywork out and thats about it smile

Thats a lot of fun for £150 notes. You can spend that much in a weekend scooping.

Needs a fair bit of tidying but for £150? What a bargain. Also looks great lowered with the G60 bbs on, mine has stock suspension and estorils and doesn't look half as good

nice buy that batty,

I esp like the g60 wheels, with the paint tidied she'll look super cool.

The corrado forum is a fantastic resource for these cars.

Good work, excellent purchase. Cheap cars are the best because there is no worry associated with them...
