Has full (3) set of keys.
Car has always been owned by non-smokers. Two previous owners. Last serviced at 52,000 miles.

All in all a great fun car in good order.

I am pitching this at what I think is midway in the pricing I've looked up. £3,200.

The RX-8 was designed as a front mid-engine, rear-wheel drive four-seat four-door coupé. The car has 50:50 front-rear weight distribution, and a low second moment of area that is achieved by mounting the engine behind the front axle and the fuel tank ahead of the rear axle. The front wheels feature classic independent double wishbone suspension, while the rear are independent multi-link.

Weight is trimmed through the use of materials such as aluminium and plastic for several body panels. The rest of the body is steel, save for the plastic front and rear bumpers. The manual gearbox model uses a carbon fiber composite driveshaft to reduce the rotational mass (moment of inertia) connected to the engine. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a Torsen limited slip differential for improved handling.

While it's not quite in the league as the last RX-7 in terms of raw performance, the RX-8 is considered its successor as Mazda's rotary engine sports car. Its layout and clever engineering, along with typical Mazda suspension tuning, have endowed it with excellent driving dynamics which have garnered much praise and numerous awards. It has also proven popular in Japan among car enthusiasts as well as aftermarket equipment manufacturers and professional tuners.
A prominent feature of the RX-8 is a pair of rear-hinged "freestyle" doors (similar to suicide doors) to provide easier access to the rear seats. The RX-8 has no B-pillar between the front and rear doors, with the leading edge of the rear door acting as a "virtual pillar" to maintain structural rigidity. Because of the overlapping design, the rear doors can be opened only when the front doors are open. Although by no means expansive, the RX-8's cabin was designed to allow enough room to house four adults, making it a genuine 4-seater rather than a 2+2.

Will, of course, entertain sensible offers.

Electric drivers seat.
Heated front seats
Aircon
6 CD changer/Bose sound system.
Full leather, no wholes or tears.
Original RX8 mats
Courtesy lights on entry (including under door mirrors)
Exterior - some stone chips to front bumper. One lifted some paint to undercoat which could do with seeing to. Alloys in good nick but not perfect.
