Yeah it did. That was a long time ago. I didn't buy it with them. Do you know much about the car?
Wasn't in the best of nic which made it a good buy for me in the end.

Ahh ha, this was the first MR2 I was going to buy, I remember it even had wood grain inserts.
 
I ended up buying a red N/A in 2008 aswell that was a lot cheaper and in great condition, until 1 month later when all the paint faded because the dodgy polish wore off, and then I ended up paining my MR2 yellow anyway ha ha.
 
I actually did regret not buying your car from the previous owner, maybe thats why I sprayed mine yellow, which I am bored of and now going black

The wood inserts were just stickers, that was first to come off. Did you see the car in person?
They had a few other things like a huge Explicit sticker on the front that had to go. I brought everything back to a clean stock car and now doing my own changes to it. It had a really nice stainless exhaust on it though.
The clear coat has a sparkle in it and was applied wrong i think, when I bought it the clear was peeling on the bonnet. The rest of the car seems fine but every time I wash it more comes off the bonnet. I will paint it one day when I'm out of uni. No idea what colour, but in the mean time I purchased a role of carbon fibre wrap so I might wrap the whole car to see if i like black.

Yeah I spent the last 4 years getting my two the way I want it, and after two resprays and 5 different motor builds im still going ha ha.
 
I was really keen on buying it but the guy who I spoke to who said he was selling onbehalf of his partner and he sounded a bit dodgy,
 
Also I think I still have the oridginal pictures of your car from when it first went on ebay 4 years ago.
