It's great isn't it - a modern car that needs special treatment when turning the engine off.
What next? Double declutching?
stumpy01- thats 28k a year abit more than say the 10k I do!!!
My car has a official average of c30mpg. So I get 34mpg on average.....I sit at 4,000revs on the motorway, hold my gears for a longtime before shifting up (its a slow car), rarely hit 5th gear (car has little torque etc) and drive more urban than motorway- what gives?!!
At 22mpg (RX-8) that would cost me £126.30/week
The very fact you actually bothered to work that out should tell you this is the wrong sort of car for you, for a start it dosnt have an Anorak hook in the back 😆
Whats the VED?

It's a colour the Germans paint there cars.

hora - that's just commuting too!!
Stato - with a name like stato I'd have thought you'd be quite impressed with a fuel economy statistic.
And (600/22)*4.54*1.02 takes about 10s to calculate so it wasn't a huge drain on my day! 🙂
Speaking of anoraks, I'd have thought that the RX-8 would in fact be the perfect anorak car.....ooooh, my car doesn't have ordinary pistons, it's like a chamber with a thing in that rotates around the chamber kinda forming the pistons as it goes.......snore......oh, and did I mention the extremely clever rear doors that open the other way..........erm.....you appear to have drowned in your beer

I only have a cycle anorak im affraid, i dont have a car so no need for a car anorak 😀

Yes i do like that from an anoraks perspective but the RX-8 was SO GIRLY that no anoraks actually bought them, although i think there is a new-zeland sheep farmer (surprise) who put a rotary into a vauxhall chevete chasis so its still appropriate anorak pub banter somewhere (i admit i may have inherited some car anorak genes)
I'll be telling my Grandchildren I drove a ****el, couldn't really go through my car owning career without ticking that box. It bloody flew round the Nurburgring.
Doubt you'll sit little Johnny on your knee and say "Lad, let me tell you about the time I owned a [insert insipid front wheel drive pile of crap here]" 🙂
Chasing Boxsters were you DavidB?
No, getting hammered by GT3's. Boxter drivers were all walking their poodles in the car park
🙄 Is this a Top gear forum or something? Quite a few walking cliches on here today!
