1983 Mazda 626 LX review from Libya
"I like it because it is immortal!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The Hatchback is stained under the rear window when I bought it.
Seats have started to be not comfort.
The rear suspension is weak and may stain from the upper shock absorber connection.
General comments?
The car is very reliable.
It is not costly to keep it.
Today is January the 15th of 2007 and I still driving Mazda 626 LX 1983 hatchback!
Yes it is twenty four years old!
The 1.6 engine is still standard!
