Title: Burnt out at Box Hill

A colleague of mine reckons he saw an RX burnt out in a hedge near Box Hill over the weekend? I hope it\'s no-one off here...

I\'d go check it out but I picked up a screw in one of my rear tyres at the weekend. Now waiting for a set of Goodyears to arrive. :mad:

Oh dear, thats awful. Real sorry, buddy. Lets hope you get another, better one, and see you back on here, and at some meets.

Apologies for my humour (it often gets me into trouble) on here, it was just a joke on the danrx\'s choice of words. What happened to you is definitely not funny, had 3 cars stolen myself, one in a hijack  :-(

clive, its brad!! from gravesend. i managed to change the turbo gaskets and had the pleasure of driving her for about 2 weeks!! o wel. whats happend has happend and once you buy an rx7 nothing compares! and it wasnt the cars fault it was stolen. i think il allways have one, i bought one at 18 and have been without one for 6 months and hate it.

Thought id come back on here to see if anyone had seen it and someone had!!

Thanks for your comments people

No worries martin!

Looking foward to the new year and a new car.
