Hiya, New Forum member here.
Hoping to be a new owner soon, but that will, in part, be up to you guys - i'll be asking advice in the relevant area of the forum (hopefully!)
Anyway, Hi everybody!
Morning all

Re: Morning all
Hi and spb2002. It looks like you've had plenty of good advice in your other thread already ... if/when you do get one I have a short list of tips for keeping it healthy and running sweet that I'll post up for you (or just check most of the other 'hello' threads and you'll find them ).
Did you read the Buyers Guide? https://www.rx8ownersclub.co.uk/forum/v ... 25&t=24047

Re: Morning all
If you're into reading then take a look at this thread...
https://www.rx8ownersclub.co.uk/forum/v ... =6&t=78199
It covers (some of) what you may or may not want to do to the car when you've bought it, or what someone may have already done to a car you're considering buying.

Cheers Rosty! I can't wait... I've never owned or driven a rear wheel drive car before either, so that's something i'm looking forward to!Rostyghost wrote: ↑Wed Aug 14, 2019 9:50 amWelcome Mr. SPB2002!

I'm selling my Mondeo.... Probably asking the high end, tbh.. particularly with it having a minor fault (which i'm looking into fixing as we speak). It'll sell, it's just taking its time I guess. Its this one; https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/123870560573

Re: Morning all
Nice and clean pictures, quite fair price for a car that is in good mechanical condition (putting that odd EML aside), it looks like an honest advert to me, so you shouldn't face any major problems selling it. But be ready to drop a few (s)quid to sell it, because that's how it usually works. (:spb2002 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 14, 2019 10:04 amCheers Rosty! I can't wait...

Cheers Bud! I put it a little higher to allow for being knocked down to be fair. I've had a couple of offers but both were silly offers so I've had to decline. Hopefully it'll go soon enough though!
