I now have my car back :yahoo: . What an exceedingly long, drawn out and painful process this has been!

I haven't had time to take some pics yet but I will this next week and will pop some up. Unfortunately, I don't feel able to recommend the body shop I used so think it's probably better if they remain nameless. If there's anyone local to me who is looking for some bodywork doing and wants more details, I'm happy to provide further info via PM, if that's ok with the mods. Cheers.


Best regards

Peter.

Hi Jimi

The interior is pretty good overall. Before you say "This thread is worthless without Pics", here's some :laughing

:th: Very nice, little trivia fact for you, UK cars had TOYOTA on the steering wheel centre, AFAIK only JDM/SC's had MR2 on them.
I searched for a couple of years before laying my hands on one for my car :cool1:

Cheers Jimi

That's an interesting fact! I hadn't realised that but will forgive myself as my last MR2 before my current one was in 1988 ๐Ÿ‘ด๐Ÿ˜. I put it in part exchange for a Sapphire Cosworth with which I got my first speeding ticket within 20 minutes and lost my licence totting up not long after ๐Ÿ˜ญ. No points since though, somehow ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿข.
Best regards

Wow! :clapping:

Recognised that location immediately from the houses in the background. :D
I'll be driving through there with a couple of fellow petrolheads on Sunday 2nd October en route to the Highlands.
6 days of epic roads and scenery. :th:

Thanks Tony :) . See, I've guessed what your real name is :laughing .

I envy you going off to the highlands for 6 days! Early October is a good time, done it myself a few times, mainly on a motorcycle. I hope you all have a fantastic trip ๐Ÿ‘. Staindrop is a nice spot, isn't it?
Best regards
