Re: Do you see many RX8's?
Seen two this week in Leyland Lancashire:
One in serious mid renovation with most of the car rubbed down and body panels repaired, looked ready to be painted near the Cross at Tesco
One in black near what was the Black Bull pub in Moss Side

Re: Do you see many RX8's?
Apparently none. Maybe it's helps that one of service managers is into RX8s.

Re: Do you see many RX8's?
In 3300 miles I saw one in Belgium, one in Kent and one in Oxfordshire.
Then I went out yesterday for a quick drive and saw 3 plus a fourth that I followed for about 2 miles!

Re: Do you see many RX8's?
My mate's just arrive at Three Sisters and said there's a red RX8 going round. Anyone here? You won't miss Pete, look for the giant Pajero with multi-coloured RX8 on a trailer

Re: Do you see many RX8's?
I drove 200 miles yesterday through London, East to West as far as Chelsea and back again on both banks of the river and back home to North Essex. Total 8s spotted = 0
Lots of dropped jaws from pedestrians around the major landmarks though, like some of them had never really noticed (or heard) an RX8 before.

Re: Do you see many RX8's?
Exactly a week ago was the last time I saw another one and that was just before I went to purchase my own one . It’s kind of nice being in this RX8 class, my previous car was a Astra and there were 4 of them within eye sight of my bedroom window at home lol.
