1978 Mazda 323 Rear whell drive Wagon review from Australia and New Zealand
"Perfect first car, cheap and reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The accelerator cable snapped.
The clutch cable snapped.
Radiator gave me a bit of grief, but easy fixed.
General comments?
Perfect first car. Low on petrol costs, easy to drive.
It's a great looking car, with the small, yet noticeable, rear spoiler :-)
The steering is the best that I've ever driven even though its not power assisted.
