Due to personal reasons sadly it's necessary to put my Series 2 up for sale. It a shame for me as it's now looking and running great after investing a lot of money and effort since I bought it in April 2018. I was looking forward to meeting the wider 1st Gen community and taking it to some events.
I've advertised the car on Car and Classic. I'm not sure what is an appropriate price so I'll see how much interest I get.

Re: Series 2 for sale
Hi Neil,
It looks like you have done a good job and it is a tidy looking car.
Not wishing to dampen your expectations too much but £9995 is the top price you might expect for a mint car.
I am sure Ian and others will have their views but I would have thought about £6k.
Tim from RX motors sold a nice silver series 3 recently and I don't think it made £4k
Good luck with your sale

Re: Series 2 for sale
Sorry mate, have too agree, 10K might scare some potentials away. Either way, hope it finds its way to a good home, looks very clean.
The beauty of a living thing is not the atoms that go into it, but the way those atoms are put together.

Re: Series 2 for sale
Thanks for your messages guys.
As the rx7 is great classic car it's a shame that any serious money you put into them to keep them on the road will exceed the market value. I guess this has a bearing on the decline in numbers on the road.
