not a chance...

no progression when the back end of a MR2 lets go... and the turbo can make that unexpected and pretty sudden!

The MR2 as it is, is very "raw". It's noisy, with rockhard suspension, much different from the lex! I got back into the lex after driving the mr2 for a few hours, and thought, no way can I drive this everyday! The lex is in a different league ;)

Just got my insurance sorted today, so can drive it legally now! (well, nearly, just need to get tax once my docs come through).

Good to hear and a nice car. Just need the wheels sorted.
