Description

Champion / Winning Blue with Full Black and Red Leather Interior and Factory Bose Sound System. Both Front Seats are Heated and Drivers seat is electrically operated.
51800 Miles and has MOT till July 26.
Currently on SORN since February this year.
This is on the Cheaper Road Tax Bracket.
ULEZ and CAZ Compliant.
2x Keys / Genuine Remote Key fobs and some Service History.
Recently Serviced and had a New Clutch fitted less than 2k miles ago.
Brake Callipers painted in Red and Wheels refurbed in Gunmetal Grey.
All the Fluids and Oils have been replaced.
Recently went to Mazda to have some warranty recall work done to the Airbag system and at the same time they fitted New Oil Cooler pipes and Wheel Arch Liners too under warranty as there were some recalls outstanding on it!
I have owned this car since 2021 when it had 48k miles on it. I purchased it for the purposes of doing some track days but unfortunately the engine chewed itself up on the track literally at 49k miles so I replaced the engine in 2022 with a good used engine with good compression and similar mileage, approx 50k miles on it. At the same time it had a New Clutch and New Uprated Starter Motor fitted and Full Service including Spark Plugs.
Since fitting the engine I have driven it casually and have covered 2k miles.
Starts and Drives Perfect.
No Warning Lights On or Issues.
Everything works as it should except for the AirCon! How often does it even get that hot here in the UK? lol.
Solid Underneath with very little rust considering its a Mazda!
These are well known for rotting away but this car is in great condition for its age.
It does have some surface discolouration but nothing rotten!
Just a little bit of rust on the rear wheel arch bottom where it meets the sills.
The engine is as factory standard with only a decat and a Basic ECU Tuning Package Map done by Ryan's Rotary Performance. This map is done for engine safety and reliability rather than performance.
* Lower Coolant Fan kick in threshold.
* Slightly raises the engine Idle Speed to help the oil lubricate the engine better when sat in traffic idling!
* Rev Limiter for when the engine is still cold or warming up.
Bad Points:
* It is a 20 year old car so does have tiny dings and scratches here or there. Please dont expect a showroom condition car!!
* AirCon just requires New Condenser and Re-gas.
* Dash is cracked on the passenger side. This is a common RX8 issue unfortunately.
* The front bumper had a small crack in it which I stitched together to give it a drift stitch look.
* Passenger rear arch has been repaired as it was dented and scraped along with both passenger doors prior to when I bought it. Both doors on the passenger side have been replaced for this reason and the colour match is ever so slightly off due to age and sun fade etc.
* Intermittently wont start when fully hot or after a very long drive but give it 5 - 10mins cool down and it will start as normal. I noticed this over the winter period where the battery didn't like the cold either and was being a bit weak so could be due to that, but since taking it off the road in February its been in my unit with a regular trickle charger on it.
I want £4000 for the car on its own.
However I do have a load of spares for it and want everything to go together as a job lot deal.
