As a matter of interest, there's a company in Great Britain, RoTechnik, 
that swaps Mazda rotaries into Ro-80's. (For those who don't know the 
story, the original Ro-80 engine was very troublesome, and the warranty 
claims put NSU out of business.) If I lived in that green and pleasant 
land, I'd want to get my hands on one of these!
