984 Mazda RX7 Coupe 2 2300cc Petrol Manual - Damaged Repairable

Date of 1st Registration : 1984

Salvage Category: UNRECORDED

Airbags: OK

Mileage: 115367

Transmission: Manual

Colour: Red

Indication Of Damage: Stolen recovered , WITH KEY , STARTS AND DRIVES
Nice to know the airbags are still ok after all these years.... :roll: :lol:

£950 seems quite steep for stolen recovered with no tax or test. Then again thats an asking price so if that could be pushed down a bit and its rust free then maybe not as bad as it sounds?

sellers description:

Hi, For sale is probably the lowest mileage RX7 FB on the UK roads. Its in original paint and mileage is at 29,000. I have had the car for about 2 years and it is in fantastic condition. It has never been welded and has excellent sills with no rust, still in original paint. Underneath is excellent in original condition, with original paint ( No black underseal). It has had an original Mazda replacement exhaust by Mazda and I think I have a receipt for about £700 for it. It has 4 new tyres on it and has new plugs oil, filters and battery. It has the rare glass sun roof and original stereo. The electric aerial works great. The interior is the grey / silver colour and is immaculate with no marks rips or tears. I have the original book and service book stamped up. I also have a pile of receipts for the car. The car starts great and runs well with no smoke.

The car was stored with a cover and the paint on the bonnet has micro blisters on it. There is a small dent behind the passenger door. The steering is not great but I have a poly steering bush available to fit. The car could be driven as is or resprayed to give an immaculate ultra low mileage classic example. I have too many car at the moment and work commitments mean I don’t get to drive them. Very reluctant sale of a great car.
Cash only on collection and must be within 7 days of auction closing - all non payers will be reported to eBay. No returns this is sold as seen - can be viewed prior to sale and happy to provide further details. A spares car may also be available if required separate to this auction. I will be advertising in other places so reserve the right to remove this listing. Phone if you are really interested in this rare car - Bill 07855142585 ( no agencies please)

Couple of cars from memory lane above.

The Red one was Sanbob's car from York, he called it The Duke if youse all remembers. The one with the mole grip holding the OMP in place!

The Blue one, FNO I remember going up to Scotland in 2009 (was it from Hemell Hempsted or Norfolk way?). I'm fairly sure that mileage is right because an MRC member looked it over in 2009 and he said it was still on the original Dunlops then. Says new boots now though.
I can think of one other car with lower miles but technically it ain't on the road. That's the delivery mileage one. Are there more?

There's also that LHD Canadian Silver S2 in Penrith put in an appearance on ebay again. Seller wants £2650 for it though.

It says "no Black underseal". meaning its still all original.
