Post by: H4rry on March 03, 2011, 07:42:31 PM
Hello chaps and chapesses! I\'m in a postion now to buy my first rx-7 once I have sold my current car (Renaultsport Clio 182 - only 18,000 miles) and I\'ll be running two cars, the other being a cheap and cheerful runabout for work.
I\'ll have around £6,000 with which to purchase the car and I\'m easy on the colour, year, origin etc as long as it\'s running right and will do for a few years so I may need a little help with this one as it\'s a big move and I want to do it right.
Anyways.......hello!

Hi dude and welcome.

If its a standard twin turbo fd you are after then jimmys is close-ish to you and sell quality standard rx7.

mine has been faultless over 3.5years so i cannot recommend them enough, although buying from any of the uk main tuners is highly recommended whether its standard twin or high powdr track monster.

Thanks for the info I\'m sure I\'ll pop along and attend.
Just been trying to get some insurance quotes bearing in mind I\'m 23 (24 in April) and the best I have got is £752 TPFT which I\'d sooner not have and I\'ve tried Peter Best, Admiral (current insurers), Adrian Flux and Sky Insurance. It\'ll be a second car limited to 3,000miles a year, anyone got any ideas or should I go for the TPFT for a year until I\'m 25?
