A roughy 323 on the bay

my \'84 rx7 is on a classic policy but they wouldn\'t put the \'79 323 on

Hi Mike :wave

Thought so!  I was just intriqued that someone would actually list their 323 in that way for sale! :eek  It\'s not exactly easy to get a 323 on a classic policy!

To be honest, I\'ve found insurers happy to insure them as a classic car, as most classic insurers have a category for "Working Classics over 15 years old".  Problem is still finding the \'specialist\' to value them.

Mmmmnnn.....I propose you! :rollin :rollin

I\'m sure Clive would write you a letter ... errr from the Mazda rotary club (with the old school piston hangers on )  Maybee we should have a sub chapter for the piston powered old schoolers

Hey I see that it went for £100. Damn thats a cheap rwd early mazda! feeling like I missed out on a bargain there. So was it someone from here that ended up with it?
  cheers, michael.

[MikeLMR]

looks like it went to a toymotor starlet fan. I Hope its going to a good loving home (and not someone like me mwuhahahhaha  :evillaugh )

[travellinbob]

your last post just cracked me up mike. Can almost imagine someone sitting in a darkened room only lit by computer screen cackling away like some Bond bad guy.!
   take you pills and it will all be fine,

 or at least that is what they tell me.....

Mike, you know I really liked your idea of the club having a section for non - rotor Mazda\'s. I mean the name says MazdaRotary, but we just accepted an NSU, so I am sure we could accept oldie Mazda\'s, eh?

I wonder what Clive and Glenn\'s thoughts are?  I mean these oldies have nowhere else to go, except some club that isnt mainly Mazda.

What about at least setting up part of the forum for them / us. Glenn and Clive are keen to build the membership, eh? What about it Glenn and Clive?

[MikeLMR]

maybe just drop the rotary only bit from the oldschool section  ? ... its just starting to gather a bit of momentum in here now.

Yeah good idea. Any old Mazda, Rotary or not, should be welcome in the old school section of this forum. The more old school Mazdas the better the chance they will convert to a Rotor motor  :cool

[Martiny]

Cool, maybe we just need a suggested cut-off, though, say cars over 15 years old or something?

Sounds like a good idea, as long as there is a rule that a rotor will be fitted   !!!!!

Or a slap with the big wet fish will follow

Yep, it can have a Rotor in the brakes, distrubutor, or have a rotary wiper motor :-)

Oh, come on guys

What about us mere mortals who have to suffer with Pi$%*ns??

What about keeping it rear wheel drive only - that works up until 1981 for the 323, 626 Montrose went to around \'83, and the 929 goes to about  \'84/\'85 (in estate guise)IFIRC

Pleeeeeeeaaaaaaase :rollin

Rear drive only would be a convinient cutoff at the moment but what about in future years ? I\'ll try and talk to Clive on Sunday about this (and if anyone feels like mentioning it too, have a word )

[Martiny]

Well I dont think we even need a cutoff. What exactly will you ask Clive for? Just a seperate part on the forum?  We just have a name and a heading thats conducive to old skool.  Something like "Older Mazdas"  or "Mazdas that wont die" or something. In the description, maybe "Classic Mazda, unusual, and rare".

I reckon it will boost our mebmership somewhat.
