rotor_dude Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 yeah just a wee one, my uk ones are just scrappers for some craic, but me jap import ones are good condition have to get my pictures of my series 3 up, wowzer no, they all rotted away probably 5-10 years after they came out, early rotors, once engine died, car died, my experience, not a real market for them here tbh, to different for here lol having the rotary engine, to scared of them climate/weather/salted roads just kills cars here, only takes 3-4 years then underneath is krusty as, also the condensation is bad, so they rust from the inside out, early rx8's are eeeek with rust heard shocking stories about the old rx2/rx3's here, make you cry lol ive found a few, but only a handful, be more in england/uk, but todate, not many have survived there also, but last few years a few rx2/rx3/rx4's have popped up, there is a kiwi down south ireland, he brought his nz rx3 coupe over here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
