No. of Azure Blue 2s?

Post by erinnmn »

Hi everyone,

Bought my 2 in July of last year - guy I purchased it off didn't have all that much knowledge about the car's personal history or previous owners etc. Been really curious ever since as to how many were made in azure blue for the UK? Think it was around 600 odd in Japan but I've looked everywhere for the UK numbers and couldn't find it anywhere.

Would love to know if anyone has the answer!

Thanks :D

I've never seen a breakdown of UK MR2 numbers. Where did you find the JDM breakdown ?

That would be MK1's and gives no breakdown of Blue (there's more than one blue) What is the source of that figure ?

The numbers registered in the UK by year is available from the Gov.uk website https://www.gov.uk/government/collectio ... statistics
Unfortunately gives no breakdown by colour.

I'm familiar with that site, not convinced by it's accuracy, in fact parts of it are wrong, bear mind that it is US based (and biased) and may/may not be accurate worldwide, also the figures in that table don't differentiate between MK1 & MK2.
