Got sick of my old Golf and never ending repair bills, so I'm off to see one of these this afternoon:
It's a 2L V6 ZXi model, N plate, full Mazda service history, electric everything, one owner from new and just 40K miles on the clock. All for £3K - quite a nice cruiser IMO - not quick, but quite nippy and good on the motorway. Anyone else have experience of these?

The quality of the interior is very good - especially for a car in this price bracket and of this age. Puts a fair few others to shame

Id prefer a MX6 V6, but that 323 is quite nice

i had the loan of an Mx6 for about a month, and it was a spot on car, it was the 2.5l v6 though
i found it nice effortless car to drive

I've test driven a 323ZXi and it's very refined. Not as chuckable or as quick as the Golf, but I want something comfortable, quiet and refined for day to day use - besides, it'll make the Corsa seem even more of a hooligan then

its the same lump 2.0 as the mx3 v6
for a daily driver you couldnt go wrong really - plus they are ultra reliable

think the 2.0ltr V6 only makes 140ps
could be wrong

Do they do 3 door 323s? I have never seen them.
