New Year, New Two
Evening guys and girls,
After selling my MK2 back in 2011 I have longed for another two. I'm no stranger to MR2'S. Ive had 5 MK1s and 2 MK2s. A little gem came up for sale local to me I couldn't pass up. A red MK1B 1989 so the last of them. FSH and a folder full of service history. 100% standard except for a Magnex Exhaust. The car runs very will and has had a lot of new parts, bodywork wise its solid, The rears of the sills need done in the usual place but it's getting done next week for £150 so not so bad. I will get some pics asap but im glad to back in a MK1.
On another note the temp gauge doesn't rise above the quarter way mark, could this be the thermostat?
Anyway Hi :)

Hello.
Good to see someone else back in a Mk1.
Falkirk is a long way but there are a couple of enthusiasts near you. Well they are in Scotland and I am ignorant of Scottish geography other then Edinburgh.
They are in Fife I think.

The temperature issue you mention probably could be the thermostat. It's the first thing to try anyway! Make sure you follow the proper bleeding procedure as usual. :)
Looking forward to updates.
Cheers,
Tom

Lucky man, Andy. I went all the way to North Yorkshire to get mine - and I'm just up the road from you (Aberdeen). If you fancy a car with a little more potential for tinkering I'd happily swap for my '88 white T-bar. :???:

Hi Andy,
Small world, I was going to stick up a spotted post as I've never seen the mk1 in the area before today.
I saw you passing the new Denny high school this afternoon, car looked amazing. I work in denny so if I see you about I will stop for a chat. It was so weird seeing a mk1 on the road I nearly crashed.
Cheers
Donna
