Toyota MR2

4 stars

Summary

Recommended. A lightweight two-seater that is serious fun to drive, looks fine and sounds great. But as for storage - a toothbrush, perhaps?

Review

This little roadster is a fun box on wheels - in the same territory as the Vauxhall VX220 and Lotus Elise, but cheaper. A 0-60mph time of just under eight seconds is achievable, but the car's low stance on the road makes it feel much faster than that. It has tremendous grip and the agility and poise of a mountain goat. The optional Sequential Manual Transmission will prove handy for city types, but maximum enjoyment will be derived from the manual box. The downfall of owning a soft-top is the risk of having it slashed, particularly if you live in a city.
