My other car(s) ......

Post by MRWight »

Hi All - All very new to Mazda and RX-8 but I have inherited one from my brother so feel I need to bring it back to life after it has sat for 18 months doing nothing. Below are my other cars - Merc W201 190e 2.6 and S124 300TE-24 Sportline

Looking forward to the challenge of looking after a rotary - never touched one before!

I haven't driven a Merc myself to know for sure, but I would suspect you'll find the RX-8 is very different and you'll have to get used to not changing up through the gears as quickly or as much (I rarely get above 3rd gear round here).
