wrx-ian Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 Not really been to any meets or posted on the board for ages. So hello to everyone. Well today i p/ex the scooby for a mazda rx-8!!!!!!!! Wanted a new car and took one for a test drive and loved it. So done the deal. I guess this is then goodbye :rotfl: I wanna say thanks to everyone I`ve met from this group we have had some great times. Never forget the fish and chip run to Southwold and the driver training day at alconbury. I may pop along to a meet sometime in the summer. C ya all around, going to miss the little scooby waves, so if you see someone waving at you in a silver rx-8 that`ll be me!!!
tony_eldridge Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 Great cars the mazzers mate, my old man has had two now and loves them. Great to drive Checkout rx8ownersclub.co.uk similar forum to this one, friendly helpful guys on it too. My old man is on there as yellaman, no prizes for guess the colour of his '8' Enjoy
Mark CSC Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 Good luck with the RX8 just remember to check the oil
tony_eldridge Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Good luck with the RX8 just remember to check the oil Everyone says that, but both of my old man's cars don't drink that much! Mazda reckon you should check the oil every second time you fill up the tank. Er, which is exactly the same as what Subaru say for the WRX/STi's so i wouldn't worry about treating it too dissimilar from your scooby mate

Hi Ian Yep, come along to some of the summer meets so we can see the new car. I drove one of the Prodrive fettled rx-8's at Bruntingthorpe a few years ago. Nice smooth, revvy engine but lacking the turbo punch Dibs
wrx-ian Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 Well picked it up today, Seems really good to drive, Power is a lot more even all the way through the rev range( not had it up to 9000rpm yet!!) Going to take a bit of getting used to. I`ll miss the scooby in ways.
Mark CSC Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 You going to come and join us on the Adleburgh run? I would be good to catch up Mark
danuleson Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 Hi Ian! Sorry to see you leaving Scooby ownership, but hope you'll pop along occasionally Hope all goes well with the RX-8!
