RX-7 FC T2 Convertible

[eg2]

So I'm looking for a new car and I've found a Mazda RX-7 FC convertible. It's a JDM import, auto, about 100k miles rebuilt 10k ago but been stood for about 8 months as the g'box is shot. on the plus side it has no rust to speak of.

so bearing in mind the broken box, no mot or tax, and the fact it's going to cost a fair bit to get it transported just under 300 miles, what do you guys think is a fair amount to offer the bloke for it?

He's basically said make him an offer as he doesn't want to try and put a value on it... Any help appreciated...

If there's genuinely no rot, 4-500 squids. Beware a rotary that's been standing and not turned over for a long time, even if it's been rebuilt in the not too distant past.

Series 4/5 convertable RX-7s are pretty much at the bottom of the RX-7 pecking order. Add an auto box into the mix and forget it! Even if the box is shot, I'd still want to hear it running before comitting and see receipts for the rebuild.

It has been run up to temp and stuff regularly, and it's from a very respected guy (and moderator) on the mazda rotary club forum so I have no doubts in what I'm told about it - obviously I'm going to view it before committing to buy, but I know someone else on MRC who has seen it many times and has vouched for it's lack of rust and how well it's been looked after....

Why doesn't he want to put a value on it? I would walk away from a mazda club member who says that
