    Hi guys :)

    HI all.
    My name is Goncalo and I am living in Hertfordshire.
    I am Portuguese and I have a Corolla Twin Cam (AE86) back in Portugal.
    It has a considerable number of mods.

    http://ae86pt.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=55
    It is a Portuguese forum , but the pictures are nice to see

    I am now looking for a Mr2 mk1 so that I can have a "toy" here in uk.
    And it has to be the mr2 mk1 because I can´t be away from the 4age
    The AE86 engine uprated parts might make their way to here

    I am looking for a Tintop mk1b (I don´t need to see the sky) without rust ....
    The engine can be on its way because I am probably going to rebuild it anyway.
    I am willing to pay extra for cars with suspension/chassis mods.

    Let me know if you spot on :P

    PS : anybody from around Waltham cross ?

    good work with the forum , it looks great and the ambient is great too.
    Been reading it for a good while now

    Hiya and welcome

    you may struggle to find a tin-top mk1, but the sunroof versions are common and don't leak like the t-bar ones often do.

    check out the for sale page for some good bargains

    Re: Hi guys :)

    Hi chap... ...missed this thread first time round, oops!!

    Your '86 sounds like it's a good build...however, we cannot see the topic without forum registration, which is a shame...

    As already mentioned, UK cars were sunroof(or T-bar) only...tintops are JDM imports, and so a bit rare...

    However, cars DO come up...it's just a case of waiting, or settling for a sunroof UK car(not the worst, still less flex than a T-Bar)!!

    Is there anywhere else we can view some pics of the Hatchi?? And is it a Levin, or trueno??
