1990 Mazda 323 review from Australia and New Zealand
"Cool little car to keep you on the go!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing - aside from mandatory tire replacement when the tread was worn.
General comments?
The 323 is an awesome little machine! Low maintenance - just keep them oiled and watered, and they're great.
My model is not fitted with all the mod cons - electric windows/central locking etc, which is perhaps why it's so low maintenance - only a speck of rust (about the size of a small coin) here and there, starts first time every time, and although I have another car now, I still have it because I can't bring myself to part with it.
