I am devistated..
Just spoke to my dealer. My beautiful car has arrived...wait for it...my worst fears have been realised. I can not have the RX8 until my current car has done 80,000 miles. I have done 76,000 (means about 4 weeks wait - 4 x 1,000 per week).
Leaseplan...you have ruined my week...it will now have to be a new Christmas present to myself...

Pillman,
I have just realised who you are
Gutted on the car mate, I'd like to offer you mine but I'm not sure I can tear myself away from it, maybe in a few weekends time mate?

Yeah, cheers..at least I negotiated with leaseplan, they told Paul at Mazda Mar'01. After I had picked myself up off the floor, I had a chat with them and agreed 80k. Should be 18-20th Dec. But might postpone it until 01.01.04 for new plate.

It's crossed my mind (however, I set off from Manchester on Friday at 2pm and got home in Surrey at 9pm). 260 miles in 7hrs. not exactly notching up the miles...
