New V6 and new to forum
-
Hi I originally had the 1.6 auto until a lady rearended me whilst coming over Wroxham bridge ,she was too busy looking at the boats.it was nice car but a write off but wetted my appetite for the 1.8 v6
I came by this one by chance on eBay it was wrongly advertised and at a very low buy it now price..so I bought it ,
Afterwards the seller realised he had made a mistake and wanted to buy it back ,too late the deal was done
What he didn't realise was it's a special addition all leather upholstery and the extras.
I want hang on to it for as long I can but being retired and age creeping up ,I will be sorry to see it go
Regards Mushman

@mushman leather interior sounds lovely. My little K8 is running lovely now with new distributer, clean and oiled filter etc. Such a fun drive watching people's reactions.
On the look out for a short shift gear stick. All bushes have been replaced etc. It still moves about a mile left to right! Any help appreciated

I have now had the new alternator fitted together with a water pump and timing belt kit and a new battery so all ready to go if anyone on here is interested. I'm asking £1500 for it which I think is a fair price in today's market.

@franx1610 Hi,
I have listed the car on ebay with the pics. It is simple to see them there: Let me know if you need anything else. Cheers

@mushman good shout on the fuses. Mazda has a fuse simply called "engine" which if fails shuts it down. I experienced this in my mx5.
