Here was the pre-auction walk around video of the 172 I purchased at USS Nagoya done by Mark at Brave Auto International. Can't wait to get my hands on her!!

There are a few commentary errors from Mark (after market gear knob etc.) but it's a great service he provides.

I was back in Winnipeg last week and saw a yellow Evo V parked outside someone's house, reminded me of this thread. It had a dent in the dour unfortunately, but looked ok otherwise.

Been looking at the price of property out there, really does make you think.

Very nice motors.

My uncle had a Delica for a few years, thirsty things but sold it for more than he paid so he was happy.

Good man!!
@cat171 - You still got ol'blue? loved that car!

The Delica can sure drink with the best of them but is a good van to take on the worst of what Canada can throw at it. I have massively enjoyed ownership of it.
Drove it 19 hours down to Utah for a climbing trip a few weeks ago...

When fuel is as cheap as you guys have it, what's a thirsty car or two? Lol
(I'm guessing it's still cheap!)

This goes to auction in a few hours, we are going to attempt to try and add it to the fleet. I'd give it a 2.5/10 chance of success...

This are had "very noticeable engine vibration" so I still bid on it but it went for lots on money because of the genuine mazda speed parts.
I have first refusal on an RX7, i'm going to look at it in a few weeks.

That's not what it used to be. When I was in Florida in 2004 it was $1.78 a gallon!!
USA is about $2.39 a gallon at the moment in Montana.
In Canada it's about $1 a litre but fluctuates +/- 20 cents per month.

Love FD's, probably because it's a car I know I will never own (my wife hates them). Pls post pics of the one you will be looking at when appropriate.

My friend imported this car a few years back and the original owner is looking to sell it.
This was the walk around video when it was first imported.

Looks very clean! I do love a good body kit though.

Probably the best Figaro in existence.... 211km from new (1991)
This went to a luck guy in Calgary after my friend imported it for him!

We're shipping loads of Figaros to the US and Canada now. God knows why you'd choose one from the UK! lol
 
How much did your mate pay for his Vee ? People can say what they want (and they do) they still look the bollox! And to say what every f**ker says on PH, of course I'm biased!

Pm'd rough price paid, it's got sub 20k miles on the clock. I think they look unreal and i'm jealous every time I see it (which is every day)

Are there folk quite able to work on them? I have this vision of them looking at it once its in bits and going;

The

f**k

Lol
Yeah we get some looks when driving all these different cars. Even the Evo get loads of attention, the V6 is just ridiculous.

I have mentioned several times about the whole RenaultSport timing belt replacement pit falls but we have a solid group of sensible mechanics/friends that will be super careful and triple check everything (we will do all the work ourselves, my friend has quite the home garage set-up). Engine out of the V6 will be an experience!

I have my ph1 172 arriving in 30 days but the timing belt isn't due for 4.5 years so I don't have to worry!

Have you been out towards Drumheller yet, or west to the likes of Field and Golden? Canmore would be one of my lottery-win locations to move to - absolutely stunning. If you head-on through Golden, you get to Revelstoke and the toilet that is Kamloops beyond it. Seriously, stop for nothing there other than a piss and/or fuel - there's nothing else there (unless you're a train geek).

If you carry on to Vancouver, you'll pass through a small place called Hope, where a lot of the first Rambo film was done. Great little Chinese there too - literally some an Asian woman's front room - lol. Calgary to Vancouver is around 12 hours with a stop or two. I challenge you to beat 9 hours in the VI! :smile:

Regardless - brilliant cars to own with the tarmac and backdrop to boot. Just more than a tad jealous! :up:
