Trying to trace my old FD 2000/X

[snowy87]

High. Iam trying to find out whether or not my old RX-7 is still around. Any info would be much appreciated. She is a 2000/X  black RB model. (There cant be too many around) She was originally a TW White car, and I was the first owner. I sold her in 2003 to a lad from poole. She only had 7000miles on the clock. I sold her to buy a Tuscan and have regretted it ever since. I saw the rex for sale a year or so later in the auto trader. I cant even give a registration number for the car as it had a private plate on it from new until i sold it. Cheers for looking

More info fella..... did it have a kit.... any mods that would make it stand out from the others??? I know there are only a handfull of 2000 cars in the UK, but with a private plate any car can be brought up to date with after market bumpers & things!!

You trying to find her to bring her home to the rightful owner??

I little off topic i know but.. how come you regretted selling the Rx for a Tuscan? I\'ve been considering doing the same recently, but am not sure i can bare to part with the RX!
What was the tuscan like compared to the rex?

What was the tuscan like compared to the rex?

Same on fuel, just broke down more!

Exactly right Kev. The Tuscan was an amazing machine, but every time I drove it, I was never sure I would get to my destination due to unreliability. Sorry Jono, she was bulk std apart from dump valve and, I think, HKS air filters.:cheers

Sorry Lum, missed your reply. From experience, both cars have good and bad points. They are both gorgeous to look at, both have fantastic performance, both have their reliability probs, although the rex probs are usually due to the mileage, or to many/bad mods, whereas the tuscan could let me down any time. Things like, the drivers side wiper falling off in the middle of a downpour - not good when your doing about 90 down the M3, the throttle cable snapped, the fuse blew on the charging system, so the battery got so low the fuel pump would\'nt work etc etc. The Tuscan is probably a better car to drive than it is to own. But thats just my experience.  Also Jono, forgot to add, at this point Iam just curious as to if she still exists, although if she was for sale and the price was right, well you never know.

a picture might help us out?

Thanks for reply Nuttah, unfortunately only have developed photo\'s of her, and not sure how to upload them. Dont really think that would really help though, because there are\'nt really any distinguishing features. She was black, with the std Mazda alloys, the rear spoiler was the std 99 spec type fitted at the factory, the interior was the grey suede type, and she is an RB. Sorry I cant help any more. Thanks again for reply
