The MR2 is lovely. I'm not sure I can have another. I know it sounds nuts but I test drove one and it drove like it should and all but it was not my MR2. It would never be the same. I drove a Z4 today and it's very much like the MR2, it feels very similar, gears, steering, visibility and all. So maybe I'd go for that? Which soft top Merc are you getting?
Greetings from just across the water - so sad you're having to sell, albeit with good reason - there seem to be quit a few Crossfire owners having to jump ship at present, especially in the British Isles (that includes IoM, doesn't it?!)
Looks like you've got a real a cracker there - hope you find a buyer soon - if I wasn't already fixed up, I'd be paying you a visit!
No disrespect to Beemers - the Z4 is a nice drive but nothing like as distinctive as a Crossfire! OK, it's understandable you can't go for another MR2 but you like the Crossfire and prefer a manual soft-top, sooo.... what's wrong with a manual convertible Crossfire...? Best of both worlds!
