Typing "Mk1 MR2 power steering" into a thing called 'Google' tells me you are right.

I always thought Holden and Ford were mass abuses of the usage Power steering

I personaly enjoy not having power steering in a car

/except when in the city trying to park

No power steering on mk1s. Although Paul Woods did retrofit it to one, I seem to recall that it was a far from simple process.

Off topic but is your Mk1 red on an F-plate? I see a few around Hethel just wondered if the one I passed twice yesterday was you?

We've got a couple of red ones but they're not on the road. Only one we've got that we can use atm is vix's white one (which as of the weekend has black wheels so you won't miss it).

Ah right. I'll keep an eye open. If you get a flash and a wave from a devilishly good looking chap driving either a green Polo or Blue 306 (both R plates) then that'll be me

Why would there be a need for power steering on these mid engined death trolleys ?

Has Paul done everything to the mk1 MR2 or something, he seems to have tried just about anything you can think of.

Death as in they are dying due to rust, or that they all kill people?
