I recently bought my rx8 about a month ago with the idea of selling it after my summer holidays. Problem is I like my car so much and i've invested so much time and money in it i dont have the heart to sell it. The problem is I am a student and i'm flying back to England next month for university. Ill be back around Xmas time for my break. My car will be standing for almost 3 months!! Any suggestions as to what i can do as ive heard its really bad for engine to be unused for such a long period of time.

Thanks so much.

Do an "Advanced" title search on winter storage; this should give you some ideas on what you need to do.

That's not trolling.

Trolling would be me trying to deliberately antagonize him/her into a ridiculous argument with no purpose.

What I did was educate him/her about how easy it is to answer his own questions. The fun part is that he/she can apply it across all aspects of life.

 

One thing you might consider is leaving your 8 with a trustworthy friend who will simply take it out for a run a few times a month.
