You are importing the car to:
Import penalty (malus) in France
- The CO₂ malus follows the scale of the year the vehicle was first registered, in France or abroad (WLTP or NEDC scale depending on its registration certificate).
- For an imported used car, it is reduced by a flat-rate discount based on its age in months (scheme in force since 1 March 2025). The weight malus also applies on first registration in France.
- Production ended in 2007: a car first registered before 1 January 2015 has no malus.

Check an imported car's history
HistoVec only covers the vehicle's life in France. For a car coming from abroad, a VIN-based report helps spot inconsistent mileage or a reported accident.

Known faults
No fault publicly documented so far, so reliability is not rated. This is no guarantee: have the car checked all the more carefully before buying.
Manufacturer recalls
See the official list on RappelConso (new tab) (French government recall site: category “Automobiles et moyens de déplacement”, search “Toyota MR2”). A dealer for the brand can also check, using the vehicle identification number (VIN), that recalls have been carried out.
Inspection checklist

Things to check
- Contrôler l'état de la capote et des joints d'étanchéité : traces d'humidité dans l'habitacle.
- Vérifier le comportement de la boîte (5 rapports ou séquentielle SMT) : passages sans à-coups.
- Demander l'historique : usage sur circuit, accident, changement de pneus asymétriques.
- Examiner les bas de caisse et le soubassement (corrosion).
- Exiger carnet d'entretien et factures.
Questions to ask the seller
- Quel est l'historique d'entretien, et la boîte (manuelle ou SMT) a-t-elle déjà été réparée ?
- La voiture a-t-elle subi un accident ou un usage sur circuit ?
- L'étanchéité de la capote a-t-elle été vérifiée ?
Test-drive tip: read the fault codes
A warning light that is off proves nothing: a fault may have been cleared just before the viewing. A Bluetooth OBD2 scanner, plugged in under the steering wheel and read on your phone, shows stored codes and whether all emissions readiness tests have run since the last reset.
