At the moment I have two spotless 8V's in for rollerisation, A 2008 with only 1,300km and a 2012 'Tenni' with 136 Km! Both are museum quality. Absolutely untouched.
In the next couple of months we've also got three more coming in for the treatment, two 8V Sports and another GRiSO! I reckon in years to come there will probably be more 8V's still on the road in Oz than just about anywhere else. I'll be long dead but no doubt owners will wonder how it was that so many of them, especially on the eastern seaboard, got caught before they trashed.

Egads!

I was wrong on the Tenni, that was the trip meter. It's done 1,600 km!
Once they're sorted I'll get a group photo with my three. My new paint for the GRiSO Turismo should be ready tomorrow. For summer I'm thinking of putting the Givi fairing on it. If it hasn't been done yet I'll get it colour matched to the rest of the Mazda red bodywork.

1600km is still bugger-all.

While I think it's great that there are still pristine examples out there, I can't understand how you can own a GRiSO and never, ever, ride it.

In UK 50.2% of all GRiSO sold are still on the road (probably 50% of those owe it to the Ghetto and Charge Nurse Roper)
Another 27% are off the road - so some of those are pretty but not rollered and some are owned by tossers

And iI thought the 07 1100 I recently got with 12k miles was a freak of nature . They're made to ride not just look at but i do park it at work where i can see it helps pass the time
