1988 Mazda B2200 SE-5 review from North America
"I would buy another if I could."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Head gasket blew at about 77,000 miles.
Lifters, once in a while, "click".
General comments?
We have had this truck in my family for 16 years now. My grandpa bought the truck, but then gave it to my dad in 1996. May of 2004, my dad gave me this truck as a gift. I did some work on it(lowered, paint, ground effects, etc) and it was pretty cheap to do. The only "bad" thing about the truck is the speed. Acceleration wise, slow. Overall, I love my lil' Mazda. I would never sell it.
