checked it out today. Not such good condition. Rusted out a bit, leaky motor, didnt bother even driving it. Then looked at the black one on carsales and that one is dodgy as. got climate control,s/c dash, but its got 4AGE on the placard instead of ZE. Also claims original black but i found red underneath the black. Atleast its s/c'd. Iwouldn't pay much more then 5 for the white one, and the black one maybe 6. But would rather keep mine, lookin at more and more of these adubs is makin me realise how good an example mine is.

I looked at the black SC that is for sale on carsales about 4 years ago. I know it's the same one as the rego plates are the same.
You may not have noticed but the front lip is off an earlier model MR2. At that time the paint was not the best and the wheels scraped badly when turning corners. The suspension was also stuffed there were spots of rust on the car. Many things did not add up.
The person that was selling it lived in Mawson Lakes. He gave me the big speil on how the car was an original Supercharged and how good it was etc etc. He soon changed his mind when I told him who I was and what I knew about the MR2's.
I don't think I would buy this car either.
Cheers

Spotted a Targa Top white/grey SC AW11 in a car park near Sportsmed SA at Evandale rego begining XEJ. Also spotted what I think was Smeetsie's red AW11 with black wheels at Richmond. It had Trade Plates and I think it was being test run.

Spot-on John.
Red car has new engine, clutch, exhaust etc. Mechanic, Marque from Mobile AutoCare took it for a run. He runs an MX5. Needless to say he was quite impressed with how it boogies !! I collect it tomorrow (Friday). I have ordered the softest Kuhmo race tyres.......I am deliberating over what to do with the suspension.......it sits up a bit with KYB gas struts.....but might have to leave the coil-over bit until next year.
Can't wait to tackle Austin Seven Club regularity events at Mallala and Collingrove hillclimb in the next month or two.
