New Member - Potentially in the Market for an RX8

Post by stewsini »

Evening all,

New member to this forum, and having just sold my previous car (Range Rover 4.2 V8 Supercharged) I'm looking for something less eye-watering to run, and infinitely more Japanese.

I'll be having a scout about to see what comes up and filling in the gaps in my knowledge about the world of RX8s, although I've always been a huge fan of them.

Cheers all!

Welcome! I've got a RR 4.2S, makes the RX-8 look frugal and economic :thumleft:

And yes, currently staring down the barrel of another four figure repair bill on the RR #-o

That sounds painfully familiar and you've just added to the sense of relief that I no longer have that sense of dread breathing down my neck. Utterly incredible car though, and I've glad I had it for the time I did.
