Is there something wrong with me? I don't really drive much nowadays, I've got a Pug 205D for work and mundane driving, a MX5 for holidays and the fun stuff. I don't need another car and importantly, have no permission to own one either! So, why do I want to rescue a MR2 that I pass by, to and from work every day? Sitting all forlorn on a dealers front, slowly dropping in price, till I guess it'll get scrapped. The thought of which makes me sad, but it's just a car, as most people would agree, not even a car I've ever really wanted to own. Yes, I'll go and look at it tomorrow and hopefully, I won't buy it.

Don't ask permission.....just ask forgiveness.... Tried that once... Still got convicted. I would just let it be, no one wants it. Some cars just aren't made to be saved. (How much and what spec?)

It's a lovely colour and from the photo it looks in good nick too, my mother in law had a white one and it was a great car.
Sorry for not helping and good luck with not buying it. 👍🏻😆

I do this... I also find that once I keep something for so long, I can't sell it.
