1991 Mazda Protege SE review from North America
"Best car I've owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front brakes were not working when I bought it.
Rough idle.
Water in the muffler.
Rad had a hole in it.
Seats were bad.
Rad fan didn't work.
All the springs in the car had cracked and broke.
General comments?
After fixing all the problems and slightly modifying it the car was surprisingly quick.
I abuse it a lot by racing it takes it and slams me into the back of my seat.
