Can the team help please ? I am looking for a Summer car (for next year) that must be little more than shed money. My choice has settled down to an MX5 or a Toyota MR2( mk3) but I am puzzled. Whilst the MX5, despite rust issues seem loved wherever it goes the MR2,which seems to be tops in everything apart from storage, has little following. Before I spend my cash can someone tell me what I've missed ??

Thanks for all the response guys. It was the mk3 MR2 I was interested in by the way - the 2 never seemed a real sports car somehow.

I'm probably over simplifying (hugely) but it seems the MX5 is a little mot "hairdresser" but easier to live with and the MR2 mk3 is a bit more hard-core. Now to tell the Mrs what she's having ! -she leans towards SLKs but that's not happening

Surely your wife can buy whatever car she wants?!

Er.... she wants a red one.
