Roylewaa Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 Well the M went this afternoon, I must admit I felt a bit gutted to be honest:(Pick up the Mazda at 11 in the morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roylewaa Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 I hope so, it was quite down in the dumps when I was taking the stereo out of the Honda this morningIt's weird when you get attached to a car, and you can depend on it and know it will start before you even turn the keyI know I only had it a few months, but I can honestly say hand on heart best all round car I've had in years:)The Mazda is up at my mates now, he says the stereo has been removed so lucky I kept mine, mileage on it is 122k, I thought it would be more for some reason, that's still below average if you work it out at 8k a year:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiNK43 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Look to the future. Mazda sounds cool so fingers crossed it looks after you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtec2011 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 The new Mazda sounds tasty, I am looking forward to this! My neighbor has a 323 1.5 and he loves the thing to death. We're always ripping each over saying which one is faster, my Civic or his 323 I think the 323 has more torque than the Civic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roylewaa Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 Well I'm happy to report it is awesome, loads of grunt with a nice 6 cylinder rumble I was grinning all the way home, and went through quarter of a tan of fuel in 20 minutes I shall stick up some proper pics tomorrow:)The 1.5 323f is only 89bhp and I found it to to be about the same as my mb2 torque wise 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
