Hey,
Ive got a budget up to £8k max but ideally around £6-7k for a car. Ive been looking at Mazda RX8's but are there any others around my budget that would suit my needs.
Looking for something like the RX8, sporty, quick, decent miles on it (under 50k) okay on insurance as im 20, reliable.
Thanks
Max

If I'm not mistaken, the RX8 returns about 25mpg...
Do you
really want that?

RX8 are dubious in terms of engine reliability and parts expense, anything BUT that

Surely insurance on an RX8 would be £6k alone?

So you want something sporty, fast, quick, and you want cheap insurance. Not a cat in hells chance.
I would buy something reliable for the first 2 years, get your insurance down, and then look at something of the above.

well the rx8 is fast 0-60 in about 7 seconds, and does close to 150mph. and insurance for me is about 1500ish which is fine for me. ive been driving for 3 years
