Re: The latest 1st gen RX7 sightings...
I've seen a few UK owners on Facebook recently that I don't think are on the forum. B767 XYK red car. And B446 TRH is being restored, the owner said he was struggling with the forum. Also I've seen a glass sunroof on eBay, which I want but I think is far too expensive :/ is the seller on here?

James you are right that is a lot for a glass roof, they used to go for about £250 but that was some time ago. The best way to get one is wait for a breaker that has one, they are about. As for the seller its hard to tell unless they own up.

Also could you just recheck the reg as I've got a red series 3 very close to that one?

the fella is from Manchester I believe, he told me he sold it after it was vandalised as he couldn't find a replacement mirror or bumper bracket. it shows up as not insured so not on the road now.

Re: The latest 1st gen RX7 sightings...
That's great James.....more than I expected.
It's also led me to think that B766 XYK was a Black series 3, also now scrapped.
(There's often a reg cluster where a single Mazda dealer or Mazda themselves put a few cars on the road).
