Thanks Clarky....it was spotted heading Brighton way Sunday before last. I figured it had got a new home there.

That\'s another beauty of keeping a register.....you learn about strange foreign sounding places, far away. .....Like \'Betchworth\' . Google says that\'s near a strange oriental sounding town.....\'Door-King\' or somesuch it was......:Giggle

Dave, have you got Kimi down as an S2 (drivetrain) or S3 (body)  in your stats? Maybe you need an Series 2.5 :D

Seriously, I\'m guessing Series 2 as she was originally 1983 and registered as such?

RX-7, KIMI 2,^^Ditto - now sold

Kimi is down as S2 Malc. The Reg fits neatly into there as you say. (Slots in between Capt Bizarro\'s Gold Machine and Tim White\'s Purple dragster)

And noted as a good little runner, ownership of \'The RPM - Casey\'.

Your welcome, very sad to see it go it was in great condition, apart from a few bits that needed doing.
Just could not find the time to put in on it. :(

Thanks Dave, It is a new one.

I was in 2 minds....is it to go in \'SORNed and other cars laid up\' or into \'Probably to go for Parts\'.
In the end I put it into SORNed.

Searching for something yesterday and found this car (C979 RMV) that came from Medway in Kent

Always liked this car a lot and at the time was 100% origonal apart from those fog lamps

Any ideas if it\'s still around ??
All the best Clive
