UK I got an RX8 :D

Hey!

I ignored common sense, and am now the proud owner of a 2005 231 8 in Strato Blue!

Pretty pleased with it so far, reading through the service history it had coils, plugs and cables done just before I bought it *phew*

Has a few niggles, pretty sure the engine mounts are dead and it has the obligatory misty rear taillight... But neither stop the car from driving, so meh!

*I solemnly swear not to start new threads about ignition troubles without googling first*

Welcome to the forum Jake,

Read through the links in my SIG. The new and potential owners thread is a must for all.

Did you happen to have a compression test done prior to purchase?

If not, do you know when the last test was completed?


Hopefully you enjoy the car and the forum.

Travis

Nope didn't bother as it fired up no problem, I was just joking about the ignition issues, its all good (for now haha)

Yer I have been reading through the epic new owner thread, its been really useful! Think I'm going to tackle cleaning the MAF tomorrow morning!
