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

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

like andy says, a good motorway cruiser

could be wrong
