collease Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 One of my friends found this on Autotrader and sent me the link. I thought i would post it up and see what people thought. It's nice but does not do it for me in white. Looks a nice car though. Mazda RX7 TURBO 2DR 1.3 1992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzbitt Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 1992 would be one of the last ones in that shap before the FD3 came out. Yes it looks mint and very well maintained but i wouldnt pay £5k for it nor would most folks im sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tipex Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 I do like these old RX's, 5k doesn't seem to bad for something thats been 'restored' whatever that means, hopefully the engine has had new rotor tips/seals as 60k is about when they go pop.

Tipex Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Thats a long lasting engine then Standard for a turbo'd rotary engine i'm afraid, hence why they aren't popular, and Mazda ditched the turbo on the RX8 so they'd last a bit longer.

Paul Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 From memory the road tax on them is horrendous. Someone at work has a newer shaped one, so i assume a non turbo 1300 cc and it s £450 a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_Bangle Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 That's because they burn oil, so much in some cases they're classed as 2-stroke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
