Another RX8 owner in Surrey

Post by SprintRX8 »

Hi..

Worked for Mazda Main Dealer shortly after leaving school.
So got the rotary bug quite early.
RX3 4s and those 7s including the Elford Turbos.

Stuffed a RX7 engine in a Mk1 Escort van years ago absolute hoot (Friends not mine)

Many years later finally got my first Rotary a RX8 2007 231bhp

Loving it LARGE.

This will be a project car tell you more later?.

Welcome to the Club. If you have any photos of the Escort van we'd love to see them (and the 8, of course).

Sadly no photos of the Escort.
It was back in the early 80s

Will sort some soon of the RX-8.
