Re: 10th Anniversary MR2 Register - CHAT - add your car here
Quite, but it is still a mystery why they ALL appear to be described as Grey.
The information is normally provided by the dealer on the V55 registration form.
The DVLA merely processes it.
So it begs the question whether Toyota GB told their dealers to enter it as such.
Or maybe, because it was a limited edition, Toyota themselves completed the V55s.
It's all rather strange. I'm curious about this anomaly because it's part of the historical record.
If things like this aren't followed up they get lost in the mists of time.
Does anybody have a brochure or other official publication which may shed some light?

Do you have photo back-up of the ID (steering wheel centre, ashtray & engine lid badges, plus the stainless kick plates) to send to jimi for the register?
No that we don't believe you, but if it is going to be of any use as a historical record such proof is quite important imo.

Put the pics on a hosting site (Photobucket/ThumbSnap/whatever) then PM the links to jimi.

I don't have Bookface either. You don't need it for this job anyway. Just sign up with one of the photo hosting sites (as above - whichever one you want). All of them will have instructions how to upload images. Then right click on the one you want to send. From the drop down menu select Copy Image URL and paste it into a PM on here. Job done.AndyT199 wrote:Hi, Im not very good with technology.... Dont have facebook... I only do emails etc... but ive got the photos ready... Is there a way to do this that I will understand lol...

I own number 067 Blue in Belfast Northern Ireland. P308 SGB Looks like an import on the V5 as it shows "Declared manufactured 1996" but I believe it is a UK car from new? Strange. My wheels have been changed for aftermarket Dotz 17 inch alloys but the ashtray, steering boss and engine lid badges are there. Absolutely love the car. Also stainless kick plates are there. Keyfob and stereo gone I'm afraid. After looking on the clicky I see mine was for sale in Londonderry in 2013.

Replied. It only appears in your Sent box when the recipient has read it.
