Just bought a 231 and need good suggestions

Post by Rexn »

Hi there,

I’m a sports car fan, big follower of F1 and an enthusiast in the industry. Just managed to get a 231 but now sourcing a starter motor, battery, and tires.

I also need the rear windscreen to be replaced. Anyone know of a localish breaking 2005ish RX8? I would like to buy a used screen and get it installed in the car by the same person.

I need it done this week in Crewe or Birmingham.

Can anyone help?
