1988 Mazda 323 4x4 16v DOHC review from UK and Ireland
"It will put one hell of a smile on your face!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Gear box, Transfer unit, Prop-Shaft and Rear Differential.
General comments?
I love the car, best one I have ever owned. The only problem you have when it all goes wrong is getting hold of spare parts, the car is so rare now that most scrap dealers don't even know what it is! If I can't get this one fixed I will start all over again and look for another one.
