out of interest which RX8 did you drive. the low or high power varient
I dont aspire to be any of these- I didnt realise i have to change my age/sexuality in order to buy the car- maybe i should have checked the small print more carefully.lol
It was the higher powered one mate. I really was expecting to be blown away by it- would like to take it on a track as it felt very disapointing on public roads.

If your pay is based almost entirely on commission, you would not want to waste time on someone who fits the usual 'time waster' description.
Fair enough, you may not be like this, but if you turn up looking like one then most salesman would run a mile.

I work in sales mate- and that is total bollocks- the average person who wips out a no limit credit card and spends 10k + with me often looks like they couldnt afford a bus home.
I would never judge a customer on his appearance, but on his body language and what he says

cos i cant live in a ferrari and i wont have 120k after i have bought a house.lol
I also doubt my insurance company would be too happy about me buying a ferrari-
Plus if i was spending 120k on a car it probably wouldnt be a ferrari

just to go back to the mini thing i havent driven a rx8 so i can't compare
but when i drove a cooper a few months back the handling was good, but i have to say the power deilvery was shocking compared to some cars i've been in, it was progressive but still did'nt seem to have any torque between 2-4k at all

Enjoyed this thread - v informative and abit of banter and fun that didn't degenerate into and out and out slanging match. Big up to D Pepper and Vibs
D Pepper - if you really like the Minis, why not consider the Cooper S works? Apparently addresses the power issue yet retains great handling....
