Yep, lost a black 92 RX7....BUT good news is that I\'ve now shifted the money onto a really smart 94 silver type R which is a much better looking the car than the black one :D . I\'ll post pics of it soon.
The only bummer is that I was intending to have the black one all valeted and ready for putting on my patch at Japanese Performance Sunday as Hickstead on 11 July. It would have been here on 20 June so would have had plenty of time. The boat that the silver one is on is due to dock on 10 July so fat chance of getting it to Hickstead by the following day :mad:
The Hyundai 105 was a height restricted boat - whereas most of the boats are loaded with hundreds of Pajeros, Landcruisers and such, this one was all sports cars and Figaros! The guy who sorts out all my shipping has lost over 140 cars.....
Still, that\'s life.

At least most of the cars were Kias or something which should be banned from the UK anyway.
Fingers crossed nobody else here is affected.....
