Dave,
I attended a local village car show today on edge of Dartmoor, it was mostly old tractors/vintage vehicles & was approached by a young chap (about my age :P ) who said "I got one of these, it's a 3 as well" . Any way he lives about 4 miles away!!
It is black, currently 138k just MOT'd but needs exhaust heat baffles.
I will PM Reg No

Sweet! Good to hear of a new one. I heard some nice information the other day at my local Mazda dealership. I was laughing about how they can't look parts up for our cars as their database starts in '86 or whatever it is. Then the guys in the parts department said their boss recently got an RX-7 which is just the same trying to get parts :shock: . They mentioned he has just ordered the factory white paint and it is in the bodyshop getting sorted out. Unfortunately that's all I got from them. Next time I go up I'll try get more info and maybe some pics if they will show me :lol:. Most likely going to be a showroom car

does anyone know what happened to this car? I'd be interested in the glass roof, and maybe some other parts :)

just found this with a mx-5 engine swap, how viable is it to buy a 12a engine to replace the mx-5 engine?
