Post by: Casey on December 01, 2012, 05:50:11 PM
The MRC team have been asked via email to place an advert on behalf of an RX-8 owner who is not a member of any internet forum. As such, we post the details below as a service to MRC members but it must be clear that any subsequent purchase is solely between the seller and purchaser. Normal MRC rules on disputes cannot be applied as the seller is not an MRC member.

The seller is Nigel Lockley
He can be contacted via nigelyes @ yahoo.co.uk
Or via 07808 754000

The car is located in Wednesbury, West Midlands.

Car details
Model: 192, 5 speed, with leather seats
Colour: Sunlight Silver
Mileage: ~54,000
Owned since: April 2011, with one previous owner from new.
MOT\'s to Feb 2013
Road Tax expires 31 May 2013

The car lost all power when driving at ~30mph and the engine will no longer turn over. Owner has been advised it is most likely "rotor tip damage". The car had to be towed to a secure location by the AA.

Further information from the current owner;

"Apart from a little bit of rust on the boot (which I was about to have painted!) and a bit of corrosion on the alloys, it is in fairly good condition.
 
I have recently changed all the ignition coils and I had a new battery last week. I have a full service history (was about to have next service this week!)"

The seller is asking £1200, but is open to offers.

The first two pictures were taken when bought (April 2011).
Subsequent pictures were taken in the past couple of days.
