Dont everyone shout at me at once but,

RX8 will be going to the new owner on saturday as taken a deposit for it an hour ago.

why ?

well the RX8 is absolutely brilliant, looks brill drives brill but for me is not raw enough, also i have noticed recently i am kinda losing interest in performance cars now and cant seem to settle down with any car in particular, so am considering one last hurrah in a tricked out FC but if i cant find one then its quite likely a normal car will be bought and that will be that :3gears-rh

Cant explain it really, just starting to get bored with cars very very quickly now :Tongue1

Well the Mint Skyline was a funny story as i bought it off a chap on GTR forum for Â£7200 on a sunday and then on the wednesday got a call from a chap from Ireland saying he wanted it and i had beaten him to it !!!!! Since i only bought it as a daily run around i said he could have it if he really wanted it as wasn\'t too bothered, he offered me Â£8200 so i couldn\'t refuse really :Laugh

nah was just lucky really, the chap from Ireland was a lovely bloke as well and has done some proper mods to the car now and has won some awards in Ireland with it :god

So good on him, sent me the money via banktransfer 4 weeks before coming to collect as he had asked on GTR.CO.UK if anyone knew me trust wise and got a glowing response :Laugh:o hence allowed me to take this picture: It was the only day i parked them both together as asking for trouble having 2 on the drive !!!

We\'ve chatted about this so you know my feelings Gurj. It\'s a shame but I understand why.

But don\'t sell those lovely alloys on ebay - I\'m sure someone at Rotorstock would love them on their 8.

What size are the alloys and how much are you looking for for them? I think they\'d look tip top on my Silver 8!

I believe they are exactly the same size as the standard ones and yes they would look great on your 8 Will. :yes

Will66 · May 21, 2009, 02:26:46 PM

Bonus! Gurj, how much you wan\'?

RX8Head · May 21, 2009, 04:42:41 PM

:2eek Sad to see you selling it so soon but I guess if you\'re after something a bit rawer then after the 7s, skyliners etc you\'ve had the 8 will seem a bit tame. At least the 8 surpised you a little as to what a great car they are.

The new owner is taking both sets of alloys as is paying the right amount i wanted :yes

He will be joining MRC so will tell him to pop them back up on here if he wants to sell them :mmmm

Will66 · May 22, 2009, 09:42:44 PM

What sort were they? I quite like the look of them maybe in a darker colour.
