Wow! Can't quite tell - is it really only 9500 or did you miss a "0"?! :shock: :lol:

My beautiful and completely unmodified 2005 192 with only 10000 miles on the clock and feels like a new car - plus the identical toy replica (no miles on the clock)!

If ever a car should be treated by Robert at Krown Rustproofing it’s this one. No nasty black gunge applied just the translucent fluid so your cars OE finishes, including the alloy of the hubs will be protected.

Stephen Turnbull from RX-8 Familia, I remember seeing him at Yorkshire Modified, although between then and now it was damaged, hence the "unfinished" look of the paint. He did damn well to get it repaired in time for Japfest though, and it's a great car in person!

Hi there, I'm the new owner of SP09XZ0 (previously X8 JGM). I think the previous owner was a member of the club, so someone will probably recognise the car - I think it might even have been sold via the forum! I bought it from Nick @ Enjoyable Cars - a very helpful guy with a lot of RX-8 knowledge.

Early priorities are fitting a dash-cam, and figuring out how to refurb the scratched gear knob (an all-too common problem from the cars I've seen).
