Hi Derick and Welcome to the Mazdarotaryclub forum.

If you have problems with your pictures
( that we would love to see), post them to me and l will put them up for you.

I have my fingers crossed that we can persuade you to bring your RX-5 to Brooklands and Rotorstock to stand in our special Rotary display that we are having at both of these events.

Excellent

as Clive said e-mail over any piccies and we\'ll post them up.

Is it an import then ? or is it one that Mazda sold over here or somthing ?

Yes I imported it from Australia where it had resided for about 2 years I think. The Aus Guy who owned it saw the car whilst working in Japan, He then exported the car to Aus but then had to return to Japan himself, so he never got to drive it much.
The car is totaly original and has only 31.000kms on it. She has white leather interior, 4 wheel disc brakes, Air Con, electric windows, 5 speed gearbox with a special parking gear like an auto, e.t.c. The under side of the car is just as clean as topside and still has nice black paint on chassis and yellow paint on all nuts and bolts its a bit of a time warp. Performance is not that bad, and for a rotary its very good on fuel, I think it is one of the rotarys where Mazda tried to get as much M.P.H as possible by reducing port size.

I mean M.P.G not M.P.H
