    eBay.

    Sadly I've just swapped mine for a load of bodywork.

    These are very similar and are a bargain with the tyres if they are still available. A respected member of the forum selling them too

    To me a MK1 just isn't complete without a set of the tear drops, but each to their own

    Welcome to the club, I am also getting my MR2 MK1 tomorrow, getting the Train to Norfolk and driving it back!

    There used to be an ebay mk3 breaker based in Rutland.. I'll see if I can find him later

    Sellers name is rutlandmr2

    Seems to focus on breaking mk3s mostly. Worth giving him a shout perhaps.

    Thanks for the info, I will check that out .Shame the listing on here was back in October so surly they have gone now. I would have certainly had those


    Another question, the rust on the A pillars- would it pass an MOT like that?

    Hi there, congratulations on your new car. I used to own a yellow one about 10 years ago. Loved it and think the colour looked really good. But yellow for some reason does not show well on photos.

    Regarding the alloys I still have them, they are at a garage who is rebuilding my engine. I do hope to travel tomorrow to pick them up and post some better pictures.

    Spot on, let me know on the wheels please.

    Car arrived on the back of a recovery truck at mine today. I am pleased with it and it ran up well. Slightly worried I might have bitten off more than I can chew with it but we will give it a good go. I am most concerned about rust. On the front corner splitters/panels, can you buy replacements as the right hand one is completely rotten

    You mean the small corner panels between the plastic splitter and the bumper? Ive got a pair in good condition. They are very easy to fit.

    I believe so. You can see the rust in the for sale thread
