Pete and I in a nice little article by Mazda UK to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the launch of the RX-7. I've met Kerr with the FD through the RX-8 OC and been out on track with at the same time as him at Rockingham. Small world

that's a nice article guys, we're there really only 350 2nd gens sold here?...... and a bit disappointing to read this from Mazda UK....
'In the UK, the convertible was only sold with the twin-turbocharged 13-B rotary engine'............ don't they know their own products?

I have tried to look at DVLAs sight for numbers sold & it is hard to tell, I thought there were only 350 TIIs (hard & soft tops) sold in UK......but obviously I must be wrong.

you're probably right Pete in respect of TII's..... the article says 350 2nd Gen RX7's though which seems low to me but who knows

Nice find Pete!
Shame Mazda UK couldn't lay their hands on an FC to complete the line up - I'm sure they could've found a lovely red vert somewhere
