Insurance isn't too bad for them, lol. They must be huge, judging by comments on here.

stay well clear of those gto's! mr2 turbos arent bad but most of the older ones have the same usual problems - aircon dont work, cruise control dont work and theyve most probably had a hard life so getting a good one for 2k will be abit of a mission

I paid about 2400 for mine and its a great example, everything works..

Plenty still to be had.

Depends what you want alex. If you want something rwd quick and fun mr2, the tigra looks like it will 100% need work without reading the spec lol

mazda looks ok not heard much about them

gto id avoid tbh, Id want 500bhp in it

old skyline?

Yes but for 2k you'd get 250 horses, 125 of them would have aids, 100 of them would have swine flu and 24 of them would work, with a token black thrown into the mix.

It all depends. Corsa Nut's old one went for about that? If it's well looked after you might get a bargain.
