Re: Do you see many RX8's?
Today in the Diesel Fiesta I went from Northampton to Glasshoughton in West Yorkshire, a round trip of 264 miles.
Total RX8s spotted = 1 Silver S1 with Purple wheels on the M1

On the way home from work today in slow moving traffic and a S1 rocked up alongside me and beeped his horn ( steady on Nigel) so we went side by side for a bit chatting with the windows down Have to say I enjoyed that

Re: Do you see many RX8's?
If I could afford to keep it and get a 25th Anni MX5 I would all day long but I can't do both and have a life so it will have to go unfortunately but on the flip side I passed two 5's on the way home aswell and I was like yep I could see myself in one of those

Ranjan,
As a substitute we visited the Warner Bros studios which was good and thought about what we were “missing”
I don’t miss finance and forecasting meetings!

I saw a Red RX8 on a drive in Richmond Ontario in Canada last Thursday.
Looking forward to seeing my own again when I collect it back from stoarage at my in-laws.
