the good:
this car has been in my family since new. It was bought in 1992 but it is a 1993 model. Its got 81,000 on the clock and was full mazda SH until 2 years ago and its been serviced every 5K since then by me. Cambelt done at 55K I think.
It drives and rides like new. Interior is spotless. Exterior would be spotless if my wife hadn't scrpaed it in a couple of places
the bad:
It failed its MOT today on a CV boot, brake pads (fr + rr), front discs, handbrake efficiency and rust in the back of both sills. It also needs 3 tyres.
Not a massive amount but enough to make Mrs Akku decide to buy a new PT Cruiser instead of donig the repairs.
T&T both run out at the end of the month and is still in use at the moment until either/or/and wifey picks up a PT Cruiser and I fix the Cadillac or the T&T runs out....
Sad to see this go....
Price is basically what its worth as scrap but I'd love to see someone take it on, do the repairs and let it live on... Its a really nice car basically just needing parts which are little more than "consumables"
Would swap for slot mags
