Mazda UK is saying
‘goodbye’ this autumn to a very different, although equally iconic
sportscar in its model line-up – the rotary-engined, four-seatter Mazda
RX-8.
“British motorists love sportscars and engineering excellence, so it is no wonder that over the last seven years the RX-8 has been close to their hearts, " said Mark Cameron, Sales Director, Mazda UK.
More
than 26,000 enthusiastic drivers have purchased an RX-8 in the UK, won
over by its truly exhilarating drive, fascinating super-smooth rotary
|  | engine and many unique features, combined with everyday reliability and practicality.
“Production in Hiroshima of right hand drive Mazda RX-8 for the UK
market has now ended and here we have fewer than 100 examples remaining
in stock. Over the next couple of months drivers will be presented with
a rare opportunity to acquire one of the very last RX-8s available in
the UK.
“Its immense driver appeal, the world’s only rotary-powered production
car is still a head-turner, with tremendous road presence and styling
that still looks fresh. A few
lucky customers are going to play a part in the grand finale of this motoring legend,”
adds Cameron.
It costs £25,540 but Mazda dealers are currently offering RX-8 buyers a
finance package available for retail sales only, until 30 September
2010, with no deposit required and typical 5.9pc APR finance on Mazda
Conditional Sale and Mazda Personal Contract Purchase up to 36 months. | | | | | | |
