Post Some Demographics for Mazda UK

Pretty quiet at work today. People don't want Heating Oil when its 70 odd degrees outside!

Get the feeling from a previous thread that I may be one of the "oldies" buying this car (if 43 is old!).

So lets have a poll of UK ONLY buyers to find out the age groupings.

Cheers

I agree a 20-30 age bracket would have been better.

I am 30 just.....

Is Lensman an optician?

I'm 26, but should the thread not ask how old we will be when the cars arrive!!!!!!!

Nope! Under that principle I'd be 'SlightlyBuggyE-CommerceSoftwareMan'

The 'Lensman' thing is related to 'The Galactic Patrol' if that means anything to anyone. Plus I'm a keen photographer but that's a coincidence. I'm 38.

Old enough to know better, young enough to carry on regardless.

Well Well....

39 of us here all pre-orders, not bad but only 3.9% of Mazda's pre-orders here.

Where are the rest of them?

JUST BROWSING!!

I suppose we ourselves are a select demographic sample of RX-8 owners to be! What kind of person spends so much time on a web forum? The answer - anyone reading this!

I'm an IT Project manager - what do you do?

What do you do

We've been here before.

Apart from a few exceptions, oilman for one, most members of this forum are connected with the IT industry.

Perhaps a new demographic survey could be " free thinker ? " as I am sure this was in a Mazda press release on the people they were hoping to attract with the RX-8.

They are also trying to attract the girlies to buy this car - but I don't see any - unless there's something you want to tell us oilMAN?
