2004 MAZDA RX-8

Mazda RX-8 192 – 1 Owner From New – Full Mazda Service History – Compression Tested

£5,995 ono

2004 Mazda RX-8 192 in silver, owned by me from new and first registered in April 2004.

This is a very honest, well-kept and increasingly rare example that has been properly maintained throughout its life and is supported by strong history, a recent compression test and long-term single ownership.

The car has covered 80,059 miles and has been serviced annually by Mazda up to and including December 2024. It also has an MOT until December 2025.

A compression test was carried out in January 2026, with healthy and well-balanced results for age and mileage. Full figures are included below.

This is not a modified or abused example — just a well cared-for RX-8 that has been properly looked after and presents very well both inside and out.

Condition

The car presents very well for its age and mileage.

• Bodywork is very tidy overall

• Engine bay is clean and well presented

• Interior is in very good condition and shows well in person

• Seats, rear cabin and boot area are all clean and honest

• Drives as it should

Naturally, as a 2004 car, there are some light age-related cosmetic marks commensurate with age and use, but overall it is a very genuine and increasingly hard-to-find example.

Why I’m selling

No urgent sale — simply time to let it go (had to buy a family car..) to someone who will appreciate and enjoy it. I will miss it hugely.

Summary

A rare opportunity to buy a single-owner RX-8 with:

• proper history

• recent compression results

• sensible mileage

• excellent presentation

• past invoices service book etc

• and none of the usual mystery surrounding so many cars on the market

A very good, honest enthusiast car.
