New member looking to buy....Hi!

Post by Creasy »

Hello RX8OC members, I just recently joined the paid membership in hope that I can learn and share with fellow minded Rotary enthusiasts as well as benefit from the advantage of being a member.

My name is Ash and I have owned a few RX7's (5 in total) along the years and am now on the hunt for a nice, clean solid RX8. Saw one at the weekend but it wasn't for me. I am keeping my eye on the usual sites and of course on here. I am quite near Milton Keynes and will get myself to the next meet if its on there.

That's me in a nutshell and I look forward to contributing where I can and having a bit of RWD fun again!

:welcome:
Having owned several RX7`s I should imagine you realise this is the place to find a decent RX-8, also there is an endless amount of knowledge available for paid up club members - the buyers guide is helpful and good luck with your search.

Hello there, welcome! I was struggling to find myself I nice PZ and one popped up on Car and Classic. Really happy with it, definitely keep an eye on that site as perhaps it's an easy one to miss!

its manual so sometimes takes a few days, posting here:

tends to speed it up.
