One day one of these will come up that isn't both completely fucked and on the other side of the world. It looks very similar to the one dugong / alcyonecorporation wanted to buy from Buckie / Cullen area a couple of years ago. He was enlisting me to pick him up from Aberdeen airport, then it sold. It's not unlikely that it moved all of about 40-50 miles in the intervening time. alcyonecorporation 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cort1977 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 If anyone is really interested in this Mazda comprex then i can assist with storage, lending tools and sucking of teeth. It's close to me and an easy trip over back roads to a pre-booked MOT. Was kind of half tempted and then read it was only 75hp which is the same as my Isuzu cavalier so while interesting seems kind of pointless. mk2_craig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the feeling that Mazda just wanted to show that it could be done, even if it was a technological dead-end. A sort of motoring Don Quixote, tilting at a windmill.

I see the seller, who got very angry about me asking about the corrosion on the body, still hasn't fixed the CV. It needs to be saved, but probably by a Scottish shiter.

barefoot Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 No it's not perfect, because that's not cool American surface rust & patina, that's proper old fashioned English rot & it needs sorting out properly because it looks shit and it will kill the car.

barrett Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Yeah, I'm all for DNP as a general philosophy but in that case I would be giving that one a full, but sensitive, resto. The interior doesn't need much except a clean, but the body would have to be totally done. I'd paint it grey just like this stunning early Alpine I drove a couple of years ago, and surprisingly enjoyed (part of the reason I bought a Sceptre was how nice I found all the Rootes switchgear in this). puddlethumper, outlaw118, barefoot and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes always loved Harrington Alpines, but he’s already got a TR4 and S1:Land Rover in France plus an SLK, Audi A4 and modern Defender in this country. Plus his house in France isn’t finished and he’s 76 this year, I don’t see him ever getting the benefit of the Alpine after spending a lot of time and money.
