Sellers description:

So, the first new sports car you own is a Mazda RX7 and you want to re live the dream? Well, this is exactly the case with the last owner of this example. Trouble is it has to be perfect in order to resemble that brand new car he had back in the day. Needless to say countless examples failed the test until he came upon this car, an extremely good 67, 000-mile example with full history and in great shape, owned by an ardent RX7 enthusiast.

Following purchase, the car was fully inspected, the aim being to return it to as new condition. To this end the engine was fully rebuilt by specialists Hayward Rotary, any other mechanical areas found wanting were dealt with and a new sports exhaust fitted. The extensive history file documents this work. The bodywork was in decent shape, but a few areas found wanting were noticed and so a full strip and repaint followed, again this is detailed in invoicing on file. A number of other invoices detail work completed to ensure the car presents as close to a new example as possible.

So here we have perhaps the finest UK supplied RX7 of its type, unmarked and immaculate, to original specification and with a full history from new including the original book pack with stamped service book, many invoices and MOT certificates.
I doubt there is another out there like this.

Estimate 20k-25K. Looks good in white but seems like an awful lot of cash for this car?

Everything has gone up in price, I would think 20-25k makes sense for that car, looks mint, have a look what else interesting and mint you can buy for 20K these days, there isn't much.

Is always a lot of push back on forums when cars go up in value, I went through the same thing with 911's, you'd think the owners would be happy they are going up but for some reason a lot aren't. I can understand if you don't own one yet. They are going crazy in Australia, will follow here.

I think its fantastic if it sells for £20000-£25000.
If it makes my race car worth more that's good for me.

Very nice looking one. Similar spec to C727 CKL, only it doesn’t have rust on every single body panel!
Another auction to watch, but it does hurt seeing these go up in price :cry: fingers crossed I can get one soon...
