New owner from Hampshire saying Hello.

[samc]

Had my MR2 for little over a month, wanted one for a very long time now decided I had to get a good one before it was too late.
Gave up smoking after 23 years 3 months ago to be able to afford this little beauty I picked up from Wakefield that had been restored & serviced.

This is now my daily driver think some of you might recognise it as I think it was in the club before my ownership?

So far all I have done is replace the gearshift knob and pedal back to OE standards. Promised myself not to
do too much modifying to this (like previous cars) as it's a classic and I love the look of the exterior too much to mess with it.
Although I do have a set of summer wheels I am working on right now (am a metal spinner/machinist by trade)and some -35mm PI springs to go on now.

Look forward to chatting with a few of you :D
Cheers,
