RX7s FC Vert & FD.   Both low mileage Stock UK cars at the above show.   It was amazing how much interest they both got, still a tremendous amount of interest in their engines & even the weather held.

Thank you to all  those involved with the organisation from the various Clubs/Forums.   It ran like clockwork.   It was a honour to be part of the Rotary fraternity & great to see the different models together.   The interest from the general community was amazing & opened their eyes to the amount of different RE cars.

Thanks to the Gent who spent hours explaining the workings of the engine on the demo parts.   At 1 point there was a Queue of about 10-12 people waiting to have a go!   I had to Intervene at 1 point between 2 chaps having a heated debate on how it worked as I thought it was about to get violent  , it would have helped if they took notice of the yellow arrow & turned the E shaft the correct way.

I brought my Brother in law along, he had never been to (or involved with) car shows/clubs & was amazed how friendly we all were & the distances we travelled yet all seem to know each other.

By far the best event I have been to

My stand pass arrived this morning 

MRC stand passes should also be BLUE - so use the BLUE entry gate - and the stand is F24-F25, on grass, just a few yards inside the entrance gate via a tarmac road.

I hope you'll agree this is a pretty awesome location!

Mine has also arrived thanks, I think we have "Pride of Place"

I have a + 1, family (Brother in Law) he is traveling separately & will meet me inside , will be my passenger on the Lap of honour.

Would be great to see another back on the road

FCs have at last been acknowledged as a loved Rotary.   They have increased in value along with most other Jap cars  including FBs & FDs.   The rule of thumb seems to be that Stock worth more than molested, TIIs worth more than NAs, Coupes worth more than Verts, S5s more than S4s & of course low mileage, good condition will command the best price.
My estimate that Coupes anything up to £15 - 20K & Verts to £12K.  Most UK cars have been welded & had a rebuild or engine swap.
There were only 350 in total sold in UK, the others are JDM.
They are selling in the region of 30K in AUS.
I estimate there is about 25 on the road with another 35 in various states of repair/rebuild.
The above is based on my opinion (being a S5 FC TII Vert owner) having been watching the market & knowledge of demand/prices over the last few years.
I hope this helps

Good pictures Malcolm & Cars look great.   
Is that a Black TII Coupe I see lurking?

As per the famous quote "No, there is another"   

Is there anything I must do Malcolm regarding Stand Booking?   Or shall I leave in your/Mazda Heritage capable hands & just "Turn Up" on the day?
