Emergency lesson on how to inspect RX8 before purchase
Discussion
Hi all,
Bit of background - I'm 21 and I've been driving a 2004 VW Polo for 2 years. I'm convinced that I want to replace it with a Mazda RX-8 1.3 PZ and have agreed to view one this weekend.
Here's the catch - I have no idea how to conduct a thorough inspection of the car once I'm there. My current car was given to me and I'm therefore not clued up on how to check a car for a faults before buying it. I don't really want to travel ~100miles just to check for flat tires haha.
If there are any common mechanical issues that RX8s tend to experience which I could check for during the viewing, please let me know. Any tips on what sort of procedure to follow whilst inspecting it would be much appreciated.
Cheers
