UK Looking at buying

Hi,
I'm on the search for a new car and am really interested in buying an rx8. I've heard mixed reviews and I know that you will have all heard the questions im about to ask before.


I know that the rotary engine is completely different from a piston engine and will require more maintenance, but I keep hearing of peoples cars not lasting longer than 30k ?


how regularly do they need to be serviced?
what do I need to look out for when buying one?
are they are good car to use and what should I do to maintain the engine ?
what is a bad mileage to buy?


I work offshore so don't need a car for everyday use just weekends doing the odd trip.


I hope someone will be able to help me as im really unsure at the second


any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks in advance

You are right, it is asked all the time. So often that 4 years ago I put together a thread with all the common answers, and it has since turned into a monstrosity of a thread.

Read it first, then come back and ask anything that isn't already answered: https://www.rx8club.com/new-member-f...t-here-202454/
