1986 Ford Sierra RS Cosworth

I know this is a gross oversimplification, but seeing as though that's the RWD and not the AWD version, I can comfortably say that my brother bought the Merkur version of that car, turbo and all, for $2,000.  I bet that's a kick in the Aussie balls.

I'm sorry, Mr. Cron.  To make you feel worse, he forgot to check the oil, the turbo as well as the engine blew, and he junked it fairly quickly.

We got the 2.3 liter engine from the SVO Mustang and the Turbobird in our model with 170 hp, but it was entertaining nonetheless.  It'd be cool if you could have your American landyacht in Aussieland.  Cars are just so damn expensive over there, where here I paid more for my not-so-well-working desktop computer than I did for my AWD car.

1988 Toyota MR2 SUPERCHARGED
Price: $3,500.00 
Ad ID: 28672409
  Unique Visits: 350   

Location: Vancouver
Date Listed: 05-Nov-07


I am selling my dark, blue supercharged MR2, 5-spd with a T-roof. I have had this car for 10 years and I have taken excellent care of it. It has had all the regular maintenance and synthetic oil changes at the 5,000km interval. The reason I am selling my baby is because I have reached the point in my life (i.e. getting married) where I unfortunately need a car with 4 doors and a trunk. The following is a list of all the recent maintenance that has been done to the car:

Valve-cover gasket 3,000km ago
Front/rear struts 7,000km ago
All brake pads, calipers and rotors 7,000km ago
Muffler/catalytic converter 11,000km ago
Timing belt, water pump 17,000km ago
Radiator/thermostat 12,000km ago
Alternator/alternator belt 5,000km ago

This car has 312,000km on the original engine, but it runs perfectly with no leaks and has lots of power. These engines are basically bulletproof, and if properly taken care of should last up to the 1 million kilometer mark, as some have been known to reach. The interior is still pristine and seats show no wear. The car has some rust on the rear wheel fenders, which MR2s are prone to getting, and the e-brake cable seized this winter (another common issue). Other than that, this is a fine example of a fairly rare sports car from Toyota, and would definitely be a great commuter car. Here's a link to a YouTube video of the car http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeBBNL43SHI
