1974 Mazda RX4 sedan review from Australia and New Zealand
"I miss her so much, mummy!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The diff started making a huge noise on the highway and I had to grandma it home.
The clutch plate started slipping so my mate and I went about fixing it only to blow the gearbox the next day.
Too numerous amounts of little annoying things to mention.
General comments?
This car was my favourite, my first rotor. I wish I never let her go, but the decision was out of my hands. Just one of those projects that went wrong.
I've had her off the clock I'd say we were doing about 230 km/h. Just beautiful.
The dash is just awesome in the series two, full cockpit style, very sweet with Recaros.
