After 6 long and fun years of owning this excellent car, I got myself an MX5 RF, so time for the RX8 to find a new loving owner.
Located near Edinburgh, Scotland.
Purchased 2018, 60k miles
Mazda Dealership Health Check, Mar 5 2024: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RDgOqFIAEb4_RLGpQNLv_Urg3Gb1usr6/view?usp=sharing

New clutch master cylinder installed Apr 2024
AC unit regassed Apr 2024
MKII RRP ignition kit + magnecor leads installed 2019
pointless shiny gold pulleys installed 2019
oil changed every 6 months, Millers 10w40 semi
premixed with Millers KR2T every fill up
sparks changed every 2 years
new agm battery installed 2022
oil cooler protective grating
Front suspension bushings all replaced with SuperPro kit
OEM BBS Wheels refurbished in close to OEM colour
All calipers new, with protective coat, as of late 2021
Black diamond discs installed late 2021
Mintex 1144 pads installed late 2021
Michelin PS4S all corners, ~5-6mm tread

Roof resprayed 2022, was showing signs of paint failure (spiderweb like cracks in clearcoat)
Undersealed 2019 by https://preserveprotect.co.uk/, appears to be holding up well
Passenger Airbag Deactivation light may fail to illuminate in warmer weather, or after the cabin has warmed up, causing airbag system to throw either:
B1884 (passenger airbag indicator open or short to body ground)
B1890 (passenger airbag indicator circuit short to power supply)
Neither of these cause the airbag system to stop working, it just complains it couldn't detect the PAD indicator.
Exhaust muffler has a thumb sized hole, some exhaust gas leakage at midpipe joint
front offside headlight washer cover chipped
headlights beginning to fog
rear nearside wheel arch ate some gravel on the track, has been sealed with touch up paint and clearcoat
rear bumper had obviously been incorrectly removed at some point prior to my purchase, offside fitment is imperfect but secure
spare bottle of FL22 coolant
any oils or 2T I would have used myself
a handful of OEM oil filters (I bought a bunch in a group buy)
spare winter wheels available, one of them has a chip, valve caps fused to stem need heat to remove or replaced entirely
original transmission available if wanted, nonfunctional 5th gear needs repaired, fits in the boot no bother
