Says 60k miles but lots of rust worm.
Asking £2.5k but surely only a parts car from the images supplied.
Seems a bit much

Really tidy car which didn't last long. Unfortunately my offer was too late.

I saw that white series 2 in late 2018 and bid £4500 but unfortunately missed out. The former owner sent me loads of photos and I must say it had been fastidiously restored. Maybe it will turn up on the forum.

I spotted a red RX7 FB for sale in Colchester - only went up for sale on Friday. Owner sent me loads of extra photos - really solid car for £6k but despite offering the full asking price, he sold it to someone else :( Gutted is an understatement. Still searching.

Blue series 3 for for sale in Northern Ireland
Looks to be in good condition but 136k miles.
Not much of a description bu you would think with the mileage the engine must have been rebuilt.

Looks good in the pics, the grey carpet looks a bit grubby and brown, wonder if its just grubby or if it has been sodden at some point. To me 136k would be no reason to expect engine problems, I've seen lots of them online running happily at 250-300K miles, although mainly in america.
