Hi Nicki, welcome to the club :wave:

That's a very nice-looking Mk1 you have there - as nice as Mika blue ones look in real life, they rarely show up that well in photos :)

I'm sure I recognise that car from somewhere... Maybe it's just the wheels :think:

Welcome. The best colour!

And Ben, take a look at Miss April in the calendar :wave: . Mica Blue looks lovely in those photos :D :+:

Obviously taken before Halfords did their interpretation of Mica Blue on my wheel arches. I am actually starting to become attached to the purple. :think:

I think Nicki's is lovely too. Whereabouts are you based?

I said rarely, not never!

Anyway, I happen to know it wasn't a, err, "half"-hearted polishing job anyway ;) :P

Hi, welcome. Nice tidy looking car ,and Ben I seem to think I know it as well.
Who did you buy it from ?

I bought it from a guy in Essex, not sure where it was from originally, not got any horror stories I hope!?

Not much to say about me, just trying to save my pennies as I am getting married next year but going to hopefully spend some money on the MR2 after that.

No, no horror stories that I know of! I just think I've seen it floating around on the forums from time to time...

Can't be a bad thing :+:

I plan on powder coating the wheels white as they need a tidy up anyway! Think it will give a much better look to the car, what do you think? :D

Ben

Yeah that sounds good :+:

What size wheels are they? Anything else planned at all? I think a slight drop would look good as well... 8-)

I quite like those wheels actually, very 90s :)

the wheels suit the car and look well on it.
