Hiya and welcome :wave:
sounds like a bargain for spares etc.

If you are contemplating doing the mr2 racing, make sure the rollcage you get is an approved one for the races, as IIRC they only allowed one type and had to be bought from one place (also the 2 different series for mk1's may have different stipulations)
There are loads of us that do trackdays, so keep your eyes on the events section if any group days are organised.

Sounds handy having an exhaust and tyre fitter as a lodger :+:

Have fun

Jo
