FAO Whoever went to 'TOYOTA ON TRACK' - advice please !!
#1
Hi everyone,
Since good old Toyota knocked me back once again from the 'On Track' events, I've not yet been able to drive a Mk3 MR2 in anger, despite the fact that I'm already an MR2 owner and considering upgrading to a Mk3!
So my question to anyone who went is:
How did you find the MR2? Handling, performance, overall experience etc.?
I'd be very grateful to hear all your opinions both good and bad...

I think they said you could just book a test drive online from any of their dealers. I drove a brief lap at Silverstone in one, seemed well put together and well mannered. Not blisteringly fast but the push button gear change was a nice toy. Not my cup of tea really but I didn't expect it to be.
Hope this helps

I drove the MR2 on track and was very disapointed.
Firstly I couldn't even fit in the thing properly and I am only 6 feet tall. I couldn't get my knees under the steering wheel properly and when I moved from accelerator to brake my knee hit the steering wheel.
Performance was adequate but the engine felt rough and harsh, especially compared to the Toyota Corolla T sport.
The other big disapointment was just how cheap and tacky the interior felt.
