Hi everybody,
I am searching for informations about a \'93 montego blue UK FD, the car has 87000 miles and have had an engine rebuilt at 70000.
I am maybe going to buy this car so I only want find some informations about the car, do you know the previous owners, etc etc.
Thanks.
I think you\'re going supply more info and detail, perhaps some pics could help identify it.
John
I only know that the car is in Southampton, and looks be in good overall condition with a full service history.
I don\'t have any pictures of the car with me for the moment.
there are not millions of montego blue FD in UK, so I thought that with little chance someone will know the car ;)
hi mate i live in southampton and i\'ve never seen it
the car is in a garage: oaktreecars, in southampton.
Sorry Mixter, that you can\'t seem to get much usefull help from the club! it could be that the car is a new import to Oaktree cars in Southampton, which is why no one knows about it, i believe a lot of FD\'s are imported from Japan into Southampton, Best bet would be to try and get more info from the garage i guess, but if the history is a bit unknown, (the garage may not even really know to much about it!) perhaps it would be a good idea to buy one from the for sale section of this club, that way you can get all the info you need as a prospective buyer,
Ps, i may be going to Southampton next week, (not that far from me) all being well, so if i can help let me know, Good luck, Bob
Hi Mixter,
First of all sorry for the stupid comments you have seen made by guests who are not members of MRC that have now been removed.
I have searched oaktreecars.co.uk and they would seem to be a company that sells any make of car and will maybe not know very much about the RX-7,
You will be better buying a car from a member of this club or from a good Jap import specialist who knows about RX-7\'s,
BTW an RX-7 would be rare in France as only 26 were actually sold by Mazda,
Good luck with buying your car,
Yeah, sorry too :( I was being a bit silly

Thanks Joe, I know you was just bouncing off sombody else,
Thing is the club is supposed to help people, not ridicule them when they ask for help:rolleyes:
Thanks everybody, don\'t matter about the stupid guys or stupid comments, there are some people like them everywhere, I can see that there are many cool guys here;).
About the car, I was just searching for informations, but if you have nothing it is not important, because as if the engine is not in a good condition, the price is still really interressant for a good condition european shell compare to the french market ;)
...time will do the rest.

Hi Mixter, I live in Southampton if you are really interested in this car let me know and I could go and have a look at it for you. Maybe take some pictures for you as well. Let me know what you need.........cheers Leigh.
i see my post was removed to even tho it was saying "nice to se how (some) people act" spose it was nothing to do with the topic like but didnt meen it towards mixter!
anyways good look with getting a best car out there :D
Hi rotorboy65 if you are ok, could you go, see the car for me and give me your opinion about it.
Normally, I\'ll come this saturday and go back with the car but your advice is the wellcome.
Hi Mixter
like Rotorboy65 I live about ten minutes from the garage and I will pop over tomorrow and get some photos for you. Hi Leigh long time no see.
Dave.
Hi mixter
had a look at the car this morning it looks very nice just a few small marks on the paintwork but didn\'t check underneath. Have added some photo\'s for you.
hi daverey, thanks a lot for all the pics, the car looks realy nice.
I come this afternoon to take the car.
Thank you everybody for your help,
see you ;)
Surely if this is a genuine UK spec FD then it cant be too hard to trace its history?
There were only a few made werent there?
Good luck bud :)
Chris
Well done Davery, nice one:Thumbsup! Nice car Mixter, hope all goes well for you with her, Sun roof, Air bags and Cruise control plus. i think slightly softer suspension! nice extras to have, Type X touring, my favoutrite model.
Bob
Ps. amazing what you can find out just from the colour!
Sorry for not getting back to you Mixter, hav\'nt been able to get on here for nearly a week. Been so busy at work 7 days a week and all that. Anyway I see Dave has come to my rescue. Thanks for doing the pictures Dave.
The car looks nice and rare to see a UK spec version, hope you get on ok with buying it if you are still going ahead with the idea.
Hi Dave yep long time no see, I hav\'nt been to any meets for ages local or otherwise. The car is still off the road, yeah I know what a nightmare. Hope to see you sooner than later...........cheers Leigh.
Hi everybody,
I came back in france, with the car, but the mechanical condition is not so good: the car is in my garage because of a dead second turbo, and many dangerous leaks because of the horrible condition of oil and coolant hoses.
I will have a lot of work on the car before taking the road.
Don\'t buy any car at this "quality vehicle seller", he doesn\'t answer to the mail I send him yesterday....
Hi Mixter
sorry the car is not as you thought but hopefully you can sort it as soon as possible, the lads on here will be great with any help you need, and the vendors at the top of the page would be a good place to source any parts you need.
Dave.
