On the Surface:

A fantastic low-mileage example of the iconic Mk I Toyota MR2, this car presents beautifully in White over a Blue Cloth interior. It's a remarkably tidy car throughout and benefits from desirable features such as a factory-fitted sunroof. Showing just 42,466 genuine miles from new, it stands as a shining example of Toyota’s iconic mid-engined sports car.

Maintenance & History:

This MR2 has had just 3 former keepers, with the current registered keeper having owned it for the past three years. Its mileage, history file, and custodianship all speak to a well-cared-for example that’s been cherished throughout its life. The original Toyota bookpack accompanies the car and includes the authorised UK dealer map, the anti-corrosion warranty booklet and the stamped service record. The history file also contains MOT certificates dating back to 1990, along with invoices for maintenance totalling around £2,000. The service record features 9 stamps, beginning in 1987 at just 850 miles and continuing through to 2022 at 42,211 miles—demonstrating consistent upkeep. In the last three years, the car has travelled just 255 miles, indicating its recent use has been sparing and considered.

The Model:

Launched in 1984, the first-generation MR2 (model code W10) was a revolutionary two-seater, mid-engined, rear-wheel-drive sports car developed with input from Lotus engineer Roger Becker. Known for its nimble handling, balanced weight distribution and engaging drive, the AW11 variant—like this one—was equipped with Toyota’s lively 1.6-litre 4A engine.

Sale Insight:

This example represents an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a truly original and unmolested Mk I MR2 with a verifiable low mileage and excellent provenance. Whether you're a collector or enthusiast this MR2 offers charm, driving pleasure and investment potential in equal measure.

Estimate:
£12,500 - £15,000
