Noisy fan belt.
Large rust patch under the spare tire (towbar mounts).
Idled pretty rough when I first bought it, a new air filter, and a fiddle around with the accelerator cable on the carby, fixed it.
Fuel consumption is excellent. Top speed about 140 KPH.
Easy to park and maneuvere, despite the absence of power steering.
Low maintenance, cheap to run, forgiving drive. A good first car for young people.
Being a small car, some of my taller friends (over 6') can only sit in the front with the slider adjustment right back. Backs seats are for people under 5' 7" or luggage only.
Reasonable boot space.
I have a 1987 Mazda 323 LX 1.9i and I'm only 15 years old. this seems to be the perfect car in my eyes. The only problem is that it has a rough idle. I don't know how to fix it, even though you said to change the air filter and the accelerator cable on the carburetor. It is a little jittery in slow traffic, but when it hits 15-20 it really flies. very smooth and easy and I'd say its the perfect first car, even perfect car for anyone. buy this car if anyone seems interested because it is worth it, for a great price and great quality get this car.
