...country of a good beer and Mazda cars (well, I wish :D )

Hello there, I am Pavel, totally new in a rotary clan. I am a miata guy - had almost all generations, with special love to first one, NA. This is the (car) love of my life, my neverending project car:

But anyway - I will no talk about a Miata on RX7 forum, right? I allways loved RX7s, but never had a gutts to buy one - especially allways wanted an FD, but secrectly loved SA/FB. Well time has passed and last year I ran over one FB car in a used car shop when was doing a company to a friend buying an Miata. When we was finished with the deal, I spent an hour looking around a nice white FB imported from a Switzerland. It was in a pretty good shape, shop owner told me it runs good etc. But I was not prepared yet that year ;s; After some time, when I had some money, started to search if it is still available - and she was. She sat there waiting for me for more than a year :P So I persuaded my friend (who I talked into another FB few months ago) to go with me and do me a company. Long story short, I bought this white beauty as my first wankel engined car, my oldtimer project, my pension :)

Promise I will try to ask only inteligent questions, use search function as much as I can and google translate as less as I can 0-0

Hi Pavel,
Many Greetings.
No need to use translate, we all speak fluent Czech on here......and make many good jokes.... :lol:

(We are so lucky here in UK....or are we?.....that most of the world now speaks in our language. Easy for business and international conversation.....but maybe a little too easy for UK people)?

Anyway......great to hear from you.

Hello Pavel,
Vitejte. Nice to see your cars, I can not see any rear Fog lights, maybe they not required Czech?

Díky! About that fog lights, actually I don´t see them much even on the pictures - it was a standard at UK? Because my car is Switzerland spec and I don´t actually know about their laws in these days. What I know, that we had fog lights law I think at late eighties to early nineties so they have it like this too... And as it is a oldtimer in here, it has to be completely original so I don´t have to fit them -yeeehaaa yay

FB Series 3 cars in UK had to have rear fog light. It was fitted just near the exhaust under the bumper.

Series 2........? We've had one and can't remember a rear fog light.

every UK market 1st gen RX7 sold after 1st October 1979 had to have a rear fog light fitted... it was installed by the dealer prior to sale.
