sounds sensible, then sell the mr2 for a mx5 then sell that for a puma then sell that and go for a punto sporting then sell that and buy a fiesta then sell that and buy a scooter then sell that and get a bmx then sell that and get a skateboard then sell that and get some trainers then sell them and return to all fours then sack that off and find a womb to crawl into ... talk about doing things the arse way round D'OH confused

The MR2 is a decent drive. They work too - i.e. you just get in and drive; there's no worrying about imminent HGF or wondering why the battery's flat or why the seats are wet.

They're not as good to drive as an Elise, but that's the trade off - the benefits of mass-production tend to be offset by a loss of purity that can be found in low-volume cars.

The MR2 has absolutely no luggage space at all though. Well, a storage bin behind the seats, but no boot of any description.

I came from an MR2 roadster to an S1 and I believe a couple of others have, not sure if its a wise swap - yes you get confort and relibility but it is no more practable due to the non-existand boot space - the elise has a lot more room.
