    Only 54,000 miles too!

    I'm sure that this guy has cars for sale fairly regularly - last one I recall was a silver 166 for a pretty good price too.

    Who cares! i'd buy that and polish it and leave it in the drive. Good colour combo, would be a nice "classic" in 20 years time if petrol still exists!

    Very overpriced. 16 years old with 175K miles on her.
    Only 6 months NCT left, needs to be taxed the end of April.

    I think that's only worth €500. €600 if she's spotless, which I really doubt she is after 175k miles on a 1 litre.

    I got clearance from the tower to buy this, gonna check insurance tomorrow...


    Is that a dirty big dent on the wing or a trick of the light?

    If car is in Ashtown village Dublin 15, I think I went there before to see another well priced car. My guess is based on name of the guy and gate where he takes pictures of all cars. He looked like "buy nonrunners cheap, fix and sell cheap" type of dealer to me with a small office.

    Car looked rough, needed two tyres which I didn't care too much as price was 30% lower than market. It drove fine but engine was washed just before I reached there and he didn't accept it. I walked away. He also offered me 1 month or 1000 miles warranty. Still worth to look I think :D

    And bit of tax, lots of test (Til December), bit of a dent, but 330 is pretty good for a runabout.

    Mazda is great find. The expensive part is the belt because there is a bit of ripping to change it.
    The common failure are ceased rear brakes calipers which seem to be done too. Other than that bullet proof engine and typical jap reliability. I bought one 2 years ago for €850, no NCT and 124k miles on the clock. It was a bargain back then, same year too. A bit sore on juce (30 to 33 mpg) but it was a great car.
