This Mazda RX7 has been off the road for at least two years it is a non runner and has no MOT or Tax. The engine will turn but has no compression. The interior is finished in leather with matching door cards and fitted carpets. Bodywork is in fair condition for its age.
Could make an interesting 'drift' or 'track day' car.

Yep, 3rd time it's been advertised now. I've tried to contact the seller twice now but with no luck. Hopefully a genuine reason why no correspondence - still I'm not going to put a bid on it until I've had a look at it.

I would very much like to buy that car as it ticks every box going V(o

in my on-going (and slightly half arsed) search for a rex, i've stumbled upon this beast

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mazda-RX7-FB- ... 4acdbd1408

looks remarkably similar to one that sold around this time last year from norfolk way (had clutch problems from what i remember...) I'm thinking it probably failed the last MOT due to rust and he's ripped the engine and box out for a better one?

I've emailed him about buying the shell as a whole... am i just asking for trouble?? :lol:

No, you're a bit wrong there splitty.

It belonged to Shawnwill on here and it seized it's engine on the motorway good style……lucky escape for Shawn it was.
He then sold the car less engine as a project but the guy has decided to offer it up for parts.

Look for Shawnwil's posts on here via member's list. Should be muchos history in there.
