So what you are saying that is that I am not entitled to my own opinion about what cars I like & dislike? I commend you on the Merc build, but thats not I see myself going into, I just dont like anything Euro, never have and prolly never will. Or is it cause the Truth hurts that you bit back?

In regards to Demanius, OMC isnt the place for info on older Mazda 323's, we all know its all for the newer models... It was up to him to search for his own info, so I cant be accountable for his actions on here, so I'll leave it at that

No wukka's bro

Not many people dont like it, its just a hellava lot cheaper then another gemini, and something I can do up as a clean daily

If plans change on Sunday, I'll be bringing it down this weekend and purchasing some TRX wheels for it

.....& what truth would that me Marc? Another silly, groundless comment? A stock car made in 1984 that does 140mph & 1,000,000 miles & still going??? The car every other standard production car copies concerning safety, strength, reliabilty, aerodynamics & is measured by? We're not talking about a rusty Dato 120Y now are we? So no sorry, don't see your point at all That is why I replied. Your taking it personal.

Concerning Demanius....point was he's farkin annoying & not many want to admit it except those who are honest. They, including yourself, just post mindless crap that actually are insulting him in front of every member.

Anyway. This is your project & I wish it well. Always up for something different. Let's have some more positive posts

You also need one of those ugly orange picnic rugs slung over the back seat, and a little fan with blue blades on the dashboard.

lol ill warn you now... those blankets are fetching high prices at the markets these days! probably worth your while installing an alarm to ward off any cold foes! i think its a good car personally. i dont think it would be suitable for me (on my income) but nice to see another car which is still useful and in good nick saved from the crusher for now.

its a good thing my nana makes these blankets by hand

And yes alarm is a must, thinking of a Rhino GTR alarm which also has central locking & keyless entry, think I may leave that to an expert to fit though
