Anyway, all the best for this year everybody!
Now you tell me ! Was up there earlier this year, (took the ferry from THurso).
Thats a fitting backdrop for a nice car !

Very nice :)
Whats the spec, or is it a secret? :yes
thats very very nice matey :D
nice motor
nice to see a fellow engineer, who needs hks nismo trust when u can make your own!!!!!!!!!
man of my own heart by the sound of it;)
are there any speed limits on shetland? I bet them roads are dam quiet, i bet u can here your fc coming from miles away cause its so quiet up there!!
I was on orkney last year and that is a place i would like to spend a weekend with my fd, who needs trackdays when u live up there!!
Thanks guys,well gonna get a mild port, 1600 secondaries, apexi fc,front mount,255l feul pump,looking around 350-400hp hopefully,(any advice greatly recievedby the way) The car was an import by an old lady, 1990 full leather electronic adjustable damping cd player air con and a leather knee rest thingy, not really sure what model anyone know ,it does have a savanna sticker and limited edition sticker.As for roads in shetland there are a good few straights and some excellent twisty corners,although police are really sneaky here for catching speeders,not that i would do that:Tongue1 , such as hiding behind bus shelters and stepping out the gits!Got nailed at 76mph saw a flash of the jacket in the night doin 120 on a nice long stretch of road,bloody good brakes in the FCs
My Grans was from Lewis, thats the most North I\'ve been except one visit to Sullom Voe going offshore.
Very nice looking car, you must keep it well for it not to have been eaten away at by the sea air.
Sounds like it maybe an Infini III as only they had the knee rests - if it is you are a lucky sod and I may have to start hating you! :rollin
Well i got the rx7 book for christmas and i thought it sounded like an infini,but is gunmetal grey is there anyway i could find out from the vin number or chassis number
Contact Mazda dealership closest to you and see if they can track down the model of your car, if not contact mazda japan directly. Also why is your right exhaust sitting a lot lower then your left?
rubber exhaust hanger is missing:(
Either way Colin, its very cool :cool
Could be an S5 with lots of options ticked :yes
