Good afternoon
I'm a portuguese AE86 owner living in the UK, where I've studied and worked for the past 6 years.
I moved up to Cumbria last year where I work as a race engineer.
The roads up here really make you want to own a proper drivers car.
gonae86 is a registered user and good friend of mine since our AE86 days, and he "introduced" me to the MR2.
The lightness, dynamics and retro looks of the car made me start to look for one as well.
My current runabout is a E36 318Ti, but I'm looking into an MR2 MK1 to keep as a second car or even to replace the BMW as my daily driver.
I spend many weekends away on work but soon enough I should manage to get on the road and check out a few MR2s that I've seen advertised around here.
Any sugestions are very welcome.
As there's no MR2 yet, I'll leave some pics of the AE86 (that unfortunatelly rests in the garage back in Portugal!)
